Unit 1

From your first sentence to saying where things are. Each lesson starts with a word, a rule and a sentence, then gives you 11 steps of practice.

  1. هَـٰذَا
    LESSON 1

    This is… هَـٰذَا

    Your first Arabic sentence — no 'is' needed. Ask 'what is this?' and 'who is this?'

    14 steps · 5 words · 8 kinds of practice

  2. ذَلِكَ
    LESSON 2

    That is… ذَلِكَ

    Point to far things — 'that' vs 'this'.

    14 steps · 5 words · 9 kinds of practice

  3. الْ
    LESSON 3

    The (al-) الْ

    Add الْ to make a word definite — 'a book' becomes 'the book'. Sun and moon letter assimilation comes later.

    14 steps · 5 words · 7 kinds of practice

  4. حُرُوفُ
    LESSON 4

    In, on, from, to حُرُوفُ الْجَرِّ

    Four little prepositions that place things in space. (Nominal vs verbal sentences and masculine/feminine come in later lessons.)

    14 steps · 5 words · 9 kinds of practice
