BWL Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 Hi!I was wondering if there is an easy way to teach Arabic pronunciation to foreigners who are not trained in linguistics (in other words 99.9% of new language learners). Are there effective ways to teach them to pronounce the "ghain, qaf, Khaa, hamza, 'ain, daad and other distinctive sounds used in Arabic, in both Fusha and Aamiyya?I always notice foreigners have horrible accents when they speak Arabic, but I think it is due to the unique sounds of the language.

yurithebest1 Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 To learn Arabic efficiently you will have to live it, i mean the best way is to reside in an Arab country for a couple of months, even if it needs a lot of hard work.Just to tell my experience as i am an Arab with an American girl who has been living in Morocco a few months now, I have to admit that her pronunciation is improving in a very fascinating way since she practices it regularly. Well yes there is a difference between Fus'ha and 3amiyya, and she does perfectly well by learning 3amiyya from the street and learning Fus'ha from a local university.

owesem75 Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 In English, there are some tongue exercises to improve pronunciation. Usually, it is in the form of tongue-twister. I wonder if there are some Arabic tongue twister available for beginners like us? Any suggestions would greatly help and highly appreciated.

shamzblueworld Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 I'd also like to know is there any online video sites that teach the arabic? I think if you see the videos, it would help more than just reading about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
