Day 16 of 30: You want to learn Arabic, but you're starting from zero and can't even read yet The letters are easier than they look: they change their shape, but never their sound ب sounds like b. At the start of a word: بـ, in the middle: ـبـ, at the end: ـب. Three shapes, one sound Now read this word: بَاب, door. The same letter at the start and at the end, in two shapes, and you just read it At Andalus Institute you don't start where the book starts, you start at your level When you join, an instructor tests you with a few questions and places you at the right spot in the program From lesson 1 you're using real Arabic, then a one-on-one call to say it out loud And if you need to learn how to read first, we teach you how to read #Shorts
