11 Reasons You Should Learn Arabic Now 

Why wait to learn Arabic? I’ve got some fantastic resources to get you started right now! 👉🏼bit.ly/best_arabic_resources

I always thought its such a pretty language to hear people speak

I'm a native Arabic speaker, I'm Egyptian, and I think you can't be speaking or learning Arabic without getting into literature especially poetry , even if you are learning a dialect and you have no intention to learn MSA , I'm telling you that you are missing a lot , it's basically the language of poetry. Thank you, Olly, for your videos I find them helpful and they make me more passionate about language learning

"You don't have many friends who speak Arabic" 😅 I live in Germany in a city and when I step out of my house, the chances are very high that the first conversation my ear catches is by Arabic speakers. At my job I hear it daily. That's the reason why I have to learn it and the more I learn the more I like it.

I'm in love with the Arabic language. This year I've visited Jordan and Egypt, and because I'm living in Germany I have Syrian and Palestinian friends to chat with me. Such a beautiful language. One thing I liked about the world cup was feeling a great sense of cameraderie watching with Arabic commentary (that I could barely understand) and cheering on the Moroccan team.

In both content and presentation, this is one of the best language learning channels.

I just got my boss to approve Arabic lessons today. Perfect timing for this video!

I‘m learning Modern Standard Arabic this is the language of the news, holy Quran and other official stuff… it’s much more difficult than the dialects but this makes it so exiting and I feel like I’m learning a majesty of the langues… By the way man you’re great I’m improving English with your book and I though why not listing to Olly as well so that’s why I’m here 😊

I planned to learn Arabic but never did. This tempted me to start. I want to learn Arabic not only because it's one of the oldest and most widely spoken languages, but also because I'm Maltese and in Malta we sort of speak a dialect of Arabic but not really because it has A LOT of Italian mixed in so I want to learn the origins of my native language I use everyday.

Hi I'm aan arabic native speaker and I love your channel it's helped me learning english huge greeting from the middle east specifically Yemen😊❤

This channel is the best. We wish them well.

I love your channel, your enthusiasm, I wish I could speak more languages!

I've always wanted to travel with Bedouins by night and rest by day. I don't know why, but travelling by night in the desert is fascinating to me. This might be my sign to start learning

It is interesting how so many languages loan words from Arabic.

Looking forward to this Olly!!! 👌 ✌🏽

I am SOOO learning Arabic bro

Arabic language is top language in the world.. It is beautiful and rich.

Stop Olly I need to stick to one at a time 😅 You're tempting me haha

I'm planning to learn Arabic.

I’ve heard some new music sung in Arabic and holy cow, it’s good

Thanks Olly for shedding light on the magic of Arabic language. please check this video - called "مع تميم | أبوذية فصحى" - by a poet called Tameem. It's so clever in taking advantage of the same word or arrangements of similar sounding words to convey different meanings. I hope you'll love it!

Different and interesting language 😊😊😊😊

Fascinating language 😍...I feel tempted to plunge right into it. The reason why I don't is that travelling in the Islamic world isn't fun as a woman. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Mashalah you are doing great I'm teaching also Arabic

Hi Olly, I found your Arabic Stories book IMMENSELY Helpful! It had the right amount of depth and vocab to build incrementally, do you have any follow up books planned?

I will learn Arabic NOT by religious reasons but my interest. Arabic is indeed a beautiful language.

Bom dia!! Ótimo dia, pessoal!! Abraços do Brazil!!

The Black man at 7:35 speaks impressive Arabic 👌🏼

I was just playing babadum and was surprised at how many words I was able to guess right from the app speaking to the answer in Arabic

I just want to say I love this video, partly because I only just started with Arabic this month. While learning the alphabet, I also found some nice old Arabic calligraphy books online. I used to do calligraphy in the Latin alphabet and this is a great reason to get new supplies for doing so!

Could you do a Greek course at some point? I'm trying to learn and struggling

Well done Olly, I think that the Arabic language is equal to the importance of the English and Chinese languages, and perhaps greater in other fields for many reasons. For example, if you are an entrepreneur, most of the investments in the future may be in the Arab Gulf countries, especially Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. They are countries that make new billionaires with their large projects and various investment opportunities. If you are interested in the world of politics as a diplomat or journalist, the Arabic language is important for understanding how the Arab world thinks, rather than being hostage to biased channels without understanding the other point of view. If you are interested in global history, Arab history is full of treasures to understand the history of the ancient because the Arab world is in the heart of the world and they were a bridge between the western world and China. If you are interested in poetry and literature, there is nothing more poetic, eloquent, and beautiful than the Arabic language. Ask those who delve deeper into the study of Arabic literature and learn Arabic alongside other languages. If you are interested in comparing religions, the Arabic language is very important to test the eloquence and beauty of the Holy Qur’an and challenge it if you like it, because the Qur’an still challenges those who come up with the same eloquence as the Qur’an for one surah only. Reading the Qur’an is an opportunity to understand the differences in the attributes of the Creator and the story of Jesus pbuh in the Qur’an and the difference between the stories of the prophets between the Qur’an and the Bible The Arabic language is the devotional language of a quarter of the world's population (Muslims), so you will find people who speak Arabic fluently in all countries of the world. If you are interested in the history of civilizations and antiquities, one of the most important languages ​​for understanding and studying civilizations and antiquities is the Arabic language, because the Arabs are the ones who transferred Greek sciences to the Western world and many important civilizations and antiquities globally in the Arab world Many of the modern sciences were founded in the eras of the Islamic renaissance, and it is a wide field for understanding how some modern sciences began and developed Some believe that the Pharaonic writing is the oldest writing, although it is a phonetic writing, while the Arabs wrote the Thamudic alphabet 7000 years ago. Archaeologists find that Saudi Arabia is one of the last opportunities for new discoveries in archeology because the excavation began very late. I wrote important studies in Arabic on antiquities and civilizations in Arabic, which have not been translated into English, so this is a good field for those interested in archaeology. Many high-level job opportunities are required in the Arab Gulf countries with their innovative projects and investments. Learning the Arabic language will help you integrate into the Arab environment, understand Arab culture, and win job competitions. Learning Arabic will open horizons for you in learning the various Arabic arts that distinguish Arabs, such as the art of Islamic decoration, the art of Arabic calligraphy, the art of Al-Qat Al-Asiri, and other crafts. I find that translation into the Arabic language is one of the broad areas for publishing houses and translators because many arts, crafts, modern sciences, and research journals for various sciences have not yet been translated into Arabic, although the Arabs represent 22 countries, but the field is still poor in this subject, and it is one of the investment opportunities that need who exploits it. I agree with you, dear Olly, Islam is not just a religion, but a way of life. You may be surprised that it is not limited to rights and duties between spouses, the family, society, the economic law, the law in public morals, the law of crime, and even laws in internal hygiene. The best methodology for learning Arabic are: 1. The Book of Medina 2. Arabic at your hands series I encourage everyone to learn Arabic as a top priority among the world's languages, because it may be a path for you to a lot of knowledge, money, culture and happiness.

thanku but leili and majnoon was written in farsi not arabic and also we speak farsi in tehran not arabic

I’ve been learning Egyptian Arabic for sometime but I thought you didn’t have stories in Arabic. I’m glad to hear you do, but what dialect is it 😅?

The only thing that need to be correct is the map you showed, it is Palestine not Israel عاشت فلسطين حره ابيه

I'm Egyptian and I do not speak Arabic. How do I tell my Teta to help me learn? Lol

Sup guys?)

❤❤❤

I learned Moroccan Darija.

@Olly Richards Please do a Russian one!

Which dialect would you guys recommend me to learn?

You don’t just learn Arabic but you also need to learn different dialects, not all Arabs understand each other or sometimes they ‘Misunderstand’ each other

Another reason, you can read and recite arabic poetry

If u need learn arabica u need go to Middle East and found kids and kids will teach you so fast that schools why I recommend kids ? It’s makes you comfortable and no shy and kids Arab so funny

Ojemine, Aramaic is not a dialect of Arabic, it's its own language with its own dialects.

I have a question: I don't really want to learn Arabic as the grammar and writing system are both hard, but with Mandarin, the grammar is easier and simpler then English, just with a much harder writing system. Does mandarin bring the same reputation as Arabic?

Best way to start learning Arabic is to learn phrases and sentences.

I'd rather learn Hebrew ! Ancient, Biblical, Modern, meaningful and cool !

Does one Side of the People are in some sort Arabs already? i mean, we are using Arabic Numerals, er no.?

Arabic is pretty difficult because of all of the dialects

Nobody should learn a language just because a lot of people speak it and it therefore figures importantly on the worldview stage. Any language is hard or impossible to learn without the opportunity to USE it regularly. If you have the burning passion and motivation and the opportunity to use it, no language is really that hard. After all, think of how many you know who speak English, not as their first language, yet speak it fluently, except for their accent? You see this all the time in TV and radio interviews for example. I visualize Arabic about as hard as Japanese. I've been to Japan 7 times but never long enough to level up my mastery of the language. I don't use it much in between trips. Hence my knowledge of the language is really just a step up from knowing enough to get around. Also the more you get into Japanese, the more you realize you have to learn two languages in one, because the informal language is SO MUCH DIFFERENT than the informal version. In other words, in a lot of situations, there are two ways of saying something, and they can be very different. Not many languages present that kind of hurdle

For me Arabic poetry slaps harder than a rap diss song . For eg Al-Mutanabi's insane boast about how his poetry makes the blind see and his words make the deaf hear is one of the most batshit boasts I've ever seen 😂 Name me one English poet or rapper who has that level of arrogance 😅

Aramaic is not an Arabic dialect. It has its own dialects.

I’m only here because I want an A

03:18 Seriously? 🫨

You are WRONG! Iran is Persian-Speaking! NOT ARAB!

Dude we don't speak Arabic in Tehran 😄

Why do people believe ,Muslims speak in curses or magic ...why did God create different languages was it a blessing or to confuse????The Quran was written in Arabic for understanding so that arabs will understand....The language itself is not holy the Quran is the words are holy words be it in Arabic or English......I for one stay from holiness in this dunya???Every human in this dunya are sinners even those who teach...like Noah,David and Solomon.....So why do shieks,imams,preachers,rabbis ..... believe they are holy...

… to the streets of Tehran? Who is gonna tell him?

This is for everyone who wants to know the truth: Dialects are for the ignorant and thugs only, while the standard language is for the elite, even English has a standard language and it also has dialects called "Slang", the only difference is that the English people are wise while the Arabs are ignorant, the Arabic dialects are used by ignorant people who spend most of their time in Streets to cause harm to others, their dialects are like their mannerisms, they are rude, vulgar, and impudent, with many vulgar words and sexual overtones, so the ignorant common people love these dialects, and they hate Standard Arabic because the standard language is concerned with culture, books, and technology, so I will ask this question: What is the use of communication With ignorant people who love to hurt you?! If this is the case, then mixing with them is reprehensible, and it is better to stay with books (and as I said earlier, Standard Arabic represents books and culture). On the other hand, you benefit from Standard Arabic and its alphabet, being the easiest in the world. I am from the Arab East and I can understand Arabic dialects (I do not like Arabic dialects, I love Standard Arabic, but just to clarify the matter) I can understand even the Algerian and Moroccan dialects, and in the end it must be said that this is not just an opinion, but a reality.

yeah no. Look at the world, and then tell me why the f ? a woman friend of mine who speaks Arabic and Turkish can tell you this is aimed at men only

There are many false claims in this video 1. If you speak Arabic 'in streets of Tehran' nobody understands you. Iran is NOT an Arabic country. 2. Leili and Majnoon is a Persian book by Nezami Ganjavi, a Persian Poet of the 13th century. Nothing to do with Arabic. 3. A woman singing unveil has nothing to do with Islam. Actually it is in many way contradicts Islamic dogmas. Sounds more an advertising video sponsered by the bloody Sheikh.

hopefully you got money for this propaganda, if you didnt its just cringe.
