Learn Basic Arabic Words


Preface
Assalaam Aaleikum!
I live in UAE and very often I come across individuals who prefer speaking in Arabic. Arabic is a
beautiful language with its own charm. Although most of us would like to speak fluent Arabic, it
is seldom easy to pick a new language. I am not saying it is impossible. I know few people who
have picked up Arabic speaking as well as writing within couple of years.
Having said that, this e-book is a small effort in enlightening those who would like to speak
basic Arabic. Through this e-book I would like you to learn certain basic Arabic words which will
help you in many circumstances like casual conversation, fillers when you speak in other
languages and so on.
In the near future, I hope to bring out similar e-books to help you.

Shukran and All the best.
