السلام عليكم،
شكرا لهذا الدرس! إنه مفيد جدا!
I really liked the visuals, they help.
Jazakallahukhairan,
nur ;-) -
Shokran sk8rgurl for your nice words.
Sal, the length of stretching vowels is relative, like عالم you make sure that the (عا) is double the time that (لم) takes.
In Arabic, 7arakas (َ ُ ِ ) takes half the time that full vowels (ا و ي) take.

Very useful lesson in pronuciation, which is very important in speaking Arabic. Excellent job!

Shukran,

Ahlan kirina;
To introduce yourself in Arabic, just say (mar7aba ana Kirina), we've used it in many lessons, in fact if you search in the lessons page for the word (names), you'll find one of our early lessons called (What is your name?).
Using this sentence to introduce yourself is understood all over the Arab countries including Egypt.
Hope you get the best of ArabicPod.

That was really nice. The visual tutorial is a big help.

i'm having a hard time with ض ظ. They sound the same to me. For example earth is أرض. how would you pronounce it if it was أرظ.
thank you -
A very useful lesson, you are doing a really great job! I'm very lucky to find this site. Keep going on! may God help and bless all of you.

Shukran li aldars mumtaaz. Very helpful indeed.For me, ح وه in dialogues are the most difficult to differentiate .Hope I'll get used to it eventually.
I always feel when I try to make Arabic sound,my throat gets 3D. English and Japanese,they are more like a flat screen.. :) -

I have a problem in pronouncing the vowels, like the word علم/ Flag , I really don't how long should I stretch the ع, because sometimes when I stretch it a lot, people think I am saying عالم, is there a rule in pronouncing vowels?
