1. Intro : As Saleema honeycomb
and Amazon hay France. My name is Sam. I'm a YouTuber and I'm
native Arabic speaker. In this class, I'm
going to teach you the Arabic alphabet
from the scratch. And over the next lessons, I teach you everything you know about writing in
Arabic alphabet in five-part listening
and understanding how to write and read it, how to position letters, how to connecting them, and understanding the Arabic
long and short voids. In the end of this class, you'll be able to write all the Arabic alphabet
like any Arabic. And we start with the next
lesson in the class project. See you there.
2. Class project: Welcome to the class.
In this little lesson, I'm going to tell you
about the class project. That one is pretty simple. By the end of the class, I want you to write all
the Arabic alphabet and to record simple
video that you read all the Arabic
alphabet that you writed and uploaded them in the
section class project. Then you'll be able to give other people feedback
for what they did. So I hope you enjoy the class.
3. Listenning and understanding: Other big language, like any
language, has four skills. Listening, we call it
St. Matthew speaking, we call it KLM, reading, we call
it Tara writing, we call it Kitab in Charlotte. In this lesson, we
are gonna start with listening and
understanding. Say for example, me
I ASAM is me ASAM, my name Iis ASAM. And it's me a SAM. My name is Anna Min tunas. And Min Tunis from Tunisia. From Tunisia. Anna Min Tunis from Tunisia, Tunisia, Tunisia,
Tunisia. Tunisia. Then after that we
have some greeting. If somebody did something good, we say shook Quran
means, thank you. I've won the response of
sugar and ease Alpha-1, Alpha-1 show Quran 1.5. Also we say Sabah, whole high-yield boot morning. I said again, Sabah. Hello. The response for
Seba haha eats easy. Sabah. Sabah, Honduras. It's MSSA or MSSA or good
evening myself, Ohio. But we heard the greeting valid
for anytime a seller more alaykum response for Salim
Ali co wireless Como Salim. This about the listening. If we know this one, it's fine in Arabic language, like any language who start with listening and
understanding. Then in the next lesson
we go to something else, reading and writing
with the reading I take you to read and
write in the same time.
4. Alif,baa,taa,thaa: The Arabic alphabet contain 28 letters and the ear bronchus. Don't worry about what you see. It's not hard,
like it looks now. Just stick with me. And in some short next lessons, you will see how easy it now I have some really
good news for you. First, the Arabic
as Leslie phonetic, that means the words are pronounced it exactly
as they are written. Secondly, most letters have
counterparts in English. Now we are going to learn about the first
letter, which is LF. Lf. Lf is similar to
the a sound in English. I'm going to write
one more time. You can see how I'm tracing it. Lf. Lf. Lf. You start from top and
go down, that's your LF. Next we have three
letters after the LF. The reason be these three, they are the same shape and
the shape is like a boat. So we're gonna to agree to
call them both familiar. Next thing, whatever you are going to write from
now on in Arabic, it has to start from
this direction. And you go on across the page. I start from here, then I go tries it and then
just curve it at the end. This, the second and the third. Now in Arabic, when you
have the same shape, may be repeated twice or
three times as in this one. We use those to
differentiate between them. So some of them have one dot. Sam may have to, Sam may have 33 is the maximum
dots in Arabic alphabet, savvy on top, some
will be on below. Let's have a look. The first
one in the boats family, which you have now the
picture of them in your mind. So we put one dot here, which is below, one dot below. This is bad, bad, bad, bad. That's similar to the
sound big in English. So think of both family
and think of dog below one dot, iz, bad, bad. Now let's put two dots here
above the second boat. Two dots, these little ease. And it's the letter
T in English. We have one below, bad to above there. Let's put three
dots here and say, fair, fair, fair, fair. In English, you will
refer to this as th, just like in the word
think or thought. Fair, fair. The boats familiar. One dot below is bad. Dots above. Is there? Three dots above? Is fair. If I test you now and I say, Oh, right there for me, all you have to remember is the shape and try to remember
the dots related to tab. So you will remember that
you have the boats family and you have two dots
above that's there. What if I say write
better for me? It's the same boat for meeting. You are right the shape
and you put one dot below, fair right, the same shape and
then put three dots above. So elif, bear. And fair, well done. You know how to write it and
you know how to read it. Well done, good.
5. Jeem,7aa,kha: So the next family also, there are three in
the family as well. Let's write them here. Some familiar look at the
way I'm reading the line. In this case, I
write line and then add like a capital
C and capital C, lyme and capital C, I want you to write
them in one goal. So when you are written they in the next makes sure you
have a smooth written. Let's do something to
differentiate between ten. The first one, we add dot
below and we say Gim. You can refer to it
as J or G in English, Gim, Gim me, Gim, Zhe. The second, we don't
add any dot and we say, I'm going to put a mark here because here is no
equivalent sound. Do it in English. I'm going to write it again. I start from here, then I go down and
I put curve hat. The third we add dot
above and we say, I will do refer to
it as capital Th. We don't have it in English. Here is no equivalent
sound to it. Same shape. Now, seven liters is gone. See you in the next lesson.
6. Daal,dhaal,raa,zaa: The next few letters now, there are only two
in the family. We started at one in the family. The second we have a
three in the facility. The third we have a three in the familiar and now we
have two in the family. This is sitting
pretty in the line. In this case, when you
have two in the family, one of them has to have a dot. Number one have no dot that Dan, Dan, and that's similar to D. The second one has one dot
above and that the veil. So the first one, then the second one with one dot is then I'm going
to refer to it as Th, because we don't have an equivalent sound
to it in English. And it's like the
word this or that. This is the same sound of van. Then. Now note how the
tank is flat and it's outing little
bit with no presser. Del Val. The next family also
has only two letters. The first is rah, rah, rah, rah, like air in English. And you start from the lion and you curve it when you go down, Let's write it again. Rah, rah, rah, rah.
Don't have dot. The second has dot z, where z. And you can refer to it as z, z in English, Let's
write it again. Z, z, Z.
7. Seen,cheen,saad,dhad,Taa,dhaa: The next familiar also
has only two letters. Then it's like
number three looking up and we've paid the first one. No dot is seen. Scene, scene. And that's similar
to S in English. The second litter has
three dots, is Xin, Xin. And the referred to
it as capital ASH, like in the word shape. Del z, scene, she leave bad, fair. Gim. Del z. Seen Xin. Next formula also
two in the family. Now you're going to see my hand movement is
going to be clockwise. You go this direction. So you start like this, you completed and then do
your tail one more time. The second in the family, clockwise and do detail. You can see before the tail, you have this angle here, this little corner here
from their star detail. Now the first one, no dot is sad, sad. Referred to it as
a big capital S, but there is no equivalent
sound to it in English, It's a deeper sound. If you say, see, this one is SAR. The second 11 dot is VOD. We don't have an
agreement on sound to it in English, It's also deeper. We're going to
refer to it as DH. That in Arabic is no
in any language else. That's why they call it
the Arabic language, the language of that Lua to the next family also
there are two letters. The bit, the base of this next family is the
same base of this one. And he don't have dot. Let's see what's
happening clockwise. That's the base, but instead, we have lion coming
from top-down. This letter is tar, tar, and he don't have dot. I refer to it as capital
T is a deeper sound. We have in the boat family. This is deeper. It's from here to there is no equivalent
sound to it in English. The next one has the
same shape like you see. And then down and
this one has dot, and it's var, var, I'm going to refer to it as
capital T and H var, var. There is no equivalent
sound to it in English. But if you remember that this
is deeper sound, var, var. Here you can see the
base of VAD is the same. The difference is in the
tail and the lion top down. So when you have this base, you can form four letters.
8. 3ayn,ghayn 2: The next family also
are two letters. It's like three upside down
and we will write like this. The first one, no dot, the second 11 dot. The first is I. I, I. We don't have an agreement
on sound to it in English, but I'm going to refer to it. Apostrophe with a, the
second litter is the vein. Vein. There is no equivalent
sound to it in English, I'm going to refer to it as GH, rain, the next family. Very easy. This 11 dot. That's fair, fair. It's like if in English, the second letters slightly
deeper than the fair. So you have two
dots on top of it. And that's car. Car. I'm going to refer
to it as a goo. We don't have an equivalent
sound to it in English. When you say, it's
like mouth open. Fair car. Next letter is lonely. We write like this. We have a straight
line down, stretch, spread it and girls slightly and put this
shape inside it. That's is care. Gef. Always look at the
movement of your mouth. Care, care. And that's similar to key
in English and recurring, write it like this. Gif. The two are correct. Let's repeat from the beginning. Bat. Fair. Gim Zehr seen She sawed var. Var. Fair. Cough. The next little,
Only one as well. And it's very simple to write
it and to pronounce it. Let's have a look. Straight
line going through the line of paper and Guttenberg
again and stop. That's lamb referred
to it as l in English. Let's repeat from the beginning. I live bear fair Gim Zehr scene. She saw the fair lead.
9. Meem,noon,ha,waw,ya: The next letter, which
is meme, meme, meme. I want you to pay attention for the way I'm
going to draw it. You'd go up to the
right clockwise, slightly around and
the buck and drop. The last movement is this drop, except that you are
starting from the top, you are going to draw the
head first one more time. You go around
clockwise and drop. And that's your meme, meme. And that's similar to
m sound in English. Meme. Next is noon, noon, noon one also in the family, and we write it like this. This letter has one dot and that's similar to n
sound in English. Now is hair, it's a
combination of del, and then you go inside. That's your head. I'm going to do it again. We don't have similar
sound to it in English. The next letter is wow, it like the ROM and disease. But with a head on top, you're going clockwise
and just drop it. We refer to it by
capital W in English. And the last letter in alphabet, easier yet, Let's write it down. That's yet simple shape
with two dots below. Now together Let's reading alphabet from the
beginning. I live. Bad. Fair scene. She saw fair enough. Lamb. Meme, meme, meme noon. Noon. Had wow. Wow. Yeah. Yeah. This
is the alphabet. How to write it and read it. See you in the next lesson.
10. position letters: Welcome back. Now we're going to get introduce it to
the letter's position. When you write Arabic, you will not write, for example, the
letters just like that. But Arabic letters, they
do get connected to each other and they will just
like something like that. I'm going to show
you how each one of the Arabic alphabet gets a different shape in three
different positions. I'm going to do the
isolated forum, initial form, medial
forearm, and final form. This is the isolated form
of LF and I'm going to mark certain alphabets and I'll
show you why I'm doing that. Lf When you write it
at the beginning, it's the state as
it in the middle. It connected to any
letter before it, but nothing after it. That's why a mucky net, when you connect the left to
the words or the letters, connect it to the letter before, but to nothing after it. The final forum also
takes the same shape. So you connect it before, but you do not
connect it after it. We have bear when you start to, if you delete the final curve of the letter Y because it needs to be connected
to other letters. And you put the dot, write it underneath
in the middle because it connects
to before and after. So you keep that line here. You put this little tooth, as I call them, straight it again, and you put the dot right
in the mid-70s. The final form,
you take the line to get connected to
anything before it. But at the end it keeps
the isolated fall. As soon as you know how
the bed is written, it's easier for you to know they're unfair
because they all take the same shape except
the placement of the dots or the number of
the dots is different. You start the same way as bear, but you put two dots on top
in the middle at the end. Fare three dots in the
middle at the end. Then we have gene. I'm going to write
the Gim half and cow, because all of the three, they have the same
shape except the number of dots or the
placement of the dots. So Gim, look how I'm starting
it from here to here. And instead of carbonate down, I keep it straight
because I need to connect it in the middle. I put the connecting
line before it. Then I write my Gim with
the little longer line after for connecting
it to next letter. And it's similar with
same way in the middle. And the end. Here is another litter, same system like LF, which is the dead. And I market again. So they'll at the beginning, just the same way, nothing gets added to it. And in the middle forum, you connect it to before, but do nothing after. Then the final forum,
just like that. Then we have the same way. Then. They'll there. Then RA and Z, they function the
system like lf. You start your word with the
same shape in isolated farm. In the middle, it connected
with this small line before these is raw. And then the same way. At the end, it goes same way. Ra z. Then seen is related forum. When you write it
at the beginning, just to write the
two teeth and keep the lane street because it use it to connect it
to any later after it. And you have got in the middle, you start with the
connecting line, and you end with the
connecting line. The final photo, you start
with the connecting line. And then you just ended with IT-related
forum of the scene. And the she takes the same path, Xin, Xin and chain. Then you got sad, sad in the middle started
with the connecting line and write the letter like this and add the
connecting line after it. Then in the end of the
word connecting line before and write these
related shape of salt. The same thing goes with four, also the same in the beginning. In the middle, we add the connecting line before
and after the letter. And in the end, we add connecting line before the insulated forum
of the letter Tau. We go to the width the same way. In this letter, you have to be a little careful with the Hein. I see how it is at
the isolated farm. When you start the
world with this letter, you just dip the
half circle and keep the connecting line after it in the middle for he
changed Gilbert, start with connecting
line before and draw an upside
down triangle. You'll see the final forum. It's the same upside
down triangle and then going down like this. Now we have God going to Chaim, it takes the same shape. You start with it this way. If the middle like this, and in the end like
this, then we have fair. When you write it in
the first of the world, don't curve it, keep it
straight. In the middle. You just add the
connecting line before and you write it again,
keep it straight. Nbn, add connecting line plus the letter in
the user rated form. Same thing with cough, beginning of the world, in the middle, in the end. Then we have GIF. This is an interesting
one because it changes when you put an
isolated for, it's like that. When you start, you do like this and you do like
that in the middle, you write it this way. Again. You can write, let them there and you add this line on top. Of course, we add
the connecting line before the letter and after it. In the end. You can either
write it like that. You can curve this, or you write it like
the isolated form. We have five more letters to go. Let me show you.
We have got good. Then. When you start with lamb, any word you write it like this. In the middle, like this. At the end, we add the
connecting line plus four. And then meme is related photo. When you write it
at the beginning, just to write it this circle and the connecting
line after it. In the middle, you start
with the connecting line and your amine like this and ended
with the connecting line. The fight and form new start
with the connecting line. And then you just end it. We've isolated
forum of the meme. Then we've got noon, noon. It takes the same
shape as the fair. You start with it this way
and put the dots above it in the middle at connecting line before
and write it like this. At the end. We write it like this. And then we have, well, while it like the LF, it gets connected to
anything before it. So when you start, you don't connected to nothing. The middle, it goes
connected to anything before some of this at the end. Then we have got VA
If the same as bare. Fair noon. So you start this way. You're right here in the middle, at the end, at the isolated
later to the connecting line.
11. Connectiong letters: In this lesson, we'll going to know how to connect the letters. So I'm going to put
isolated letters and then we're going to see
how we connect them. We're gonna start with the bar plus f plus lambda plus bed. First we have to know the farm that I'm
going to write it. Since it occurs
at the beginning, it's gonad to take
the initial form. The initial forum of
tau will be this. Then we have LF. Lf, as we said earlier, it's one of the letters
that do attach to other letters before
it, but not after. So we will just
attach it to the top. Whatever we are
going to write after LF will be take
the initial form. Now we have Len, it's not going to be
attached to the LF and it gets automatically
her initial form like this. Then we're going to write
the final form of bare. This word is liberty. Liberty means student. Let's take another world I live, plus scene plus the plus LF plus then elif occurs at the
beginning with the initial form. And we do not connected
to any letter afterwards. So we are just going to bring this scene over here
in the initial form. Then we have debt, the ethics also
the medial forum. Then we have LF. It takes the medial forearm, then takes his initial
form because elif is the president letter
to him and elif don't accept any
attachment after it done. This word is a step, or step means teacher. Teacher. One more word, I plus,
plus, plus, plus. There is in the
beginning and it's thick hair initial
form plus RA is in the middle and it takes
her middle form like this, takes the initial
forum because I don't accept any attachment after
it takes the middle forum. And there is in the
final of this world and take his final
forum like this. This word is Arabi. Arabi means Arabic. We need to practice
then to 20 watts every day for master
this part of this class, let's move to the next
part of Arabic volumes.
12. VOWELS arabic: Now we are going to get introduce it to the
voice in Arabic. So we have two short
vowels and long voids. The short voids we
call them hurricanes, Coursera, long voids, we
call them hurricanes. We're gonna to start
with hurricane Coursera. We have four main short boils. We have fatale. It is little dash on top of
the letter and make sound. I can pick any letter I want. For example, bear, and I
would write it like that. And then put just
Fatah on top of it and will sound as bad. Bear, bear. The second one would be them. And it's a small world on top of the letter and the
mammoths oo sound. So if I'm going to write bear and then I will put the
camera on top of it. That will sound
as boo, boo, boo. And we have Coursera. Coursera goes
underneath the letter and it makes the e sound. If I put bear and add
Coursera underneath it, it will be sound as b. B, b. We have bear Bu be. The other one is Tikkun. And so Kuhn is a
circle on top of the letter and it makes a pause. I will refer to it
as the English FA, which is a pause in
English phonetic. If I put bear and I put
so Kuhn on top of it, and it is a pause a bit. But let's look at words. They has short voice. Bait. Bait means house. See how I put the short
vowels on top of the letter. If I take another one, cut means male cut. Let's take another one. Column. Carla. The short vowels tell me the pronounciation
of Arabic words. Now let's get to the long voids. So I'm going to write
hurricane Coahuila. There are three main long boils. We have else-if, and dwell. These three long vowels
are not consonants. They are just long voice
because none of them can take any short volume
what gets pronounced? It is the sound that
occurs before it. So let's look at this example. We take the bait again. If I want to write
bear and I want to add a leaf to it, it is bare. It makes a longer sound. And I take bear again, and I add yet to it. It makes b. B. If I take B again
and I put wow to it, it makes, Bu, elif makes, makes. And while mix. You can take any letter. And if you add
long voyage to it, it makes that little
longer sound. Always the letter that appears
before LF, it has fatale. The letter that
occures always before. Yeah, it has Coursera. The letter that occurs before. Wow, it always has done.
