Arabic Beginner 1 Introduction Course

In this self-paced course you will learn the different letters of the alphabet, as well as the different auxiliary signs that complement it.

Arabic may be a very different language from the ones you have studied so far. Therefore, in this process, special attention should be dedicated both to the letters and to the different spellings that do not exist in other languages. Correctly learning these contents is fundamental for the correct acquisition of the Arabic language and avoiding difficulties at higher levels.

We suggest that you practise the special characters and check the configuration of your keyboard to incorporate the Arabic language. This will be very useful for the next levels of learning.
