The Arabic Alphabet
Learning the Arabic Letters (Abjad)
The Arabic alphabet, known as Abjad, consists of 28
letters and forms the foundation of the Arabic language.
Unlike English, Arabic is written from right to left.
Students learn to recognize, pronounce and write each
Arabic letter before progressing to connected letters
and complete words.
How Arabic Letters Look and Sound
Arabic letters can change their form depending on their
position within a word. Students learn the beginning,
middle and ending forms of letters and practice their
correct pronunciation.
Practice Writing and Pronunciation
Regular writing and pronunciation practice helps students
become familiar with the shape and sound of every letter,
building a strong foundation for reading and speaking.
