Best resource to learn Arabic in your opinion? I speak lower-intermediate Swahili and fluent Spanish and noticed how much Arabic existed in these languages and think they can compliment each other

[@HistoricalMethodMan]

Hey @MarkyNomad, Nice of you to drop by. Arabic and Swahili are closely related, especially because of the Omani empire and historical Indian Ocean trade.
The first resource that I'd recommend is the textbook/workbook called Alif Baa: Introduction to Arabic Letters and Sounds.
www.amazon.com/Alif-Baa-Introduction-Arabic-Letters/dp/1589016327
The alphabet is the first place to start, as the grammar is in the letters.
Be well,
Reese

It would be cool if you also talked about the Haraket vowel markings

[@HistoricalMethodMan]

Perhaps in a 101 series we could chef something up to talk about the haraket

Hi friend! You're Arabic is good as a foreigner. Can you suggest some tips to learn to read Arabic script fast?

[@HistoricalMethodMan]

Hey, I personally believe that reading is the hardest skill in Arabic, especially to read quickly I have much trouble with. My advice is to start the workbook Alif Baa (third edition) and do all the exercises within it

[@Rhythm412]

@@HistoricalMethodMan ohh ok. Thanks for replying

[@HistoricalMethodMan]

My advice for reading is different whether you’re at the word level, sentence level, or paragraph level. For the word level, Alif Baa is the best place to look. On the sentence and paragraph levels, I recommend finding collections online of short stories for children.

@@HistoricalMethodMan how and why did you learn Arabic isn't it so hard so many exceptions, complicated script and such a big vocabulary! How did you memorize it all???

[@HistoricalMethodMan]

Little by little. I've been in the game for about three years.
