Everywhere · Writing & mediaModern Standard Arabic — الفصحى
يَلَّا نَبْدَأ! اَلْعَرَبِيَّةُ أَجْمَلُ مِمَّا تَظُنّ، وَأَسْهَلُ مِمَّا تَتَخَيَّل. خُطْوَةٌ صَغِيرَةٌ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ تَكْفِي. "Yallah, let's begin! Arabic is more beautiful than you think — and easier than you imagine. One small step a day is enough."
CairoEgyptian — مصري
يَلَّا بِينَا يَا مَعَلِّم! هَنِتْكَلِّم مَصْرِي وَلَّا إِيه؟ اُقْعُد، اِشْرَب شَاي، وَخَلِّينَا نِبْدَأ عَلَى طُول! "Let's go, boss! We're speaking Egyptian — or what? Sit down, have some tea, and let's start right away!"
DamascusSyrian — سوري
شُو نَاطِر؟ تَعَا نِحْكِي شَامِي، القَهْوَة عَالنَّار! أَوَّل جُمْلَة بِتْكُون صَعْبَة، بَس بَعْدَين بِيحْلَى الحَكِي. "What are you waiting for? Come speak Syrian, the coffee is on the fire! The first sentence is hard — after that, talking gets sweet."
JerusalemPalestinian — فلسطيني
يَلَّا حَبِيبِي! القَهْوَة جَاهْزَة وِالحَكِي طَوِيل. خُد رَاحْتَك وَاحْكِي عَلَى مَهْلَك — أَنَا سَامْعَك. "Yallah habibi! The coffee is ready and there's plenty to talk about. Take your time, speak at your own pace — I'm listening."
BeirutLebanese — لبناني
شُو يَا حِلُو! جَاهِز تِحْكِي لُبْنَانِي مِتِل أَهِل بَيْرُوت؟ يَلَّا، أَوَّل جُمْلَة عَلَيِّي وِالبَاقِي عَلَيْك! "Hey you! Ready to speak Lebanese like the people of Beirut? Yallah — the first sentence is on me, the rest is on you!"
BaghdadIraqi — عراقي
هَا عَيْنِي! شَكُو مَاكُو؟ تَعَال نِحْكِي عِرَاقِي! اُقْعُد يَمِّي وَخَلِّي نْسُولِف شْوَيَّة — وَالشَّاي حَاضِر. "Hey, my dear! What's up? Come, let's speak Iraqi! Sit next to me and let's chat a little — the tea is already made."
CasablancaMoroccan — مغربي
يَلَّاه أَجِي! نْهَضْرُو الدَّارِيجَة بْحَال وْلَاد البْلَاد! مَا تْخَافْش مِن الغَلَط — كُلْشِي كَيْتْعَلَّم شْوِيَّة بْشْوِيَّة. "Yallah, come! We'll speak Darija like the locals! Don't be afraid of mistakes — everything is learned bit by bit."
TunisTunisian — تونسي
يَزِّي مِالتَّسْوِيف! يَلَّا نِبْدَاو التُّونْسِي تَوَّا! خَمْسَة دْقَايِق كُلّ نْهَار، وْبَعْد شْهَر تْشُوف رُوحَك وِين وْصِلْت. "Enough procrastinating! We're starting Tunisian right now! Five minutes a day — after a month you'll see for yourself how far you've come."
Dubai · RiyadhGulf Arabic — خليجي
هَلَا وَاللهْ بِاللِّي نَوَّر! تَعَال نِسُولِف خَلِيجِي. لَا تِسْتَحِي — كُلّنَا بِدَينَا مِن أَوَّل كِلْمَة. يَلَّا نِبْدَأ؟ "Hala wallah, look who's brightened the place! Come chat in Gulf Arabic. Don't be shy — we all started with the first word. Shall we begin?"
KhartoumSudanese — سوداني
يَا زُول! تَعَال نِتْوَنَّس بِالعَرَبِي، الشَّاي جَاهِز. نُونِس وَنِتْعَلَّم سَوَا — مَا فِي عَجَلَة. "Ya zol — hey you! Come chat in Arabic, the tea is ready. We'll talk and learn together — no rush."

🎧 The same voices talk with you in the app — in role-plays, debates and lessons.

From the logbook · Day 1

Five minutes. One word: شكراً. The voice in the app repeated it three times, patiently. So did I. The fourth time, it sounded almost real.

The Stations

Three stops that teach you to speak

Station 01سوقThe Souk
AI role-plays & debates

This is where you haggle for the first time.

In the middle of the bustle: carpets, spices, a merchant smiling at you. Your AI conversation partner plays every scene with you — in the dialect of your choice, patient with every mistake. From the market stall to a heated debate about football.

🕌 Role-play: At the bazaarpassed
🚕 Role-play: Ordering a taxiup today
⚖️ Debate: Climate changefor the brave
Station 02صوتThe Voice
Pronunciation feedback, word by word

This is where the taxi driver understands you.

You repeat after the app — two speech-recognition engines listen independently and show you exactly where your ح still sounds like a ه. Honest, precise, no sugar-coating. Until the sentence sticks.

Tricky sounds: ع · ح · قin training
Station 03كلماتThe Baggage
Vocabulary trainer with spaced repetition

This is where you pack words that stay.

Every word you learn goes into your baggage. The spaced-repetition system brings it back exactly when you were about to forget it — and your course from A1 to A2 — 22 stations — sets the route for the whole journey.

Haggled over twenty dirhams in a role-play — and won. The merchant was an AI. The pride was real.

The Flight Plan

Your route is set: from A1 to A2

No wandering around, no "what do I learn today?" — the course fixes every leg. You board at the alphabet and land at real discussions.

Here, stars are earned for skill, not for clicking through: if you just skim a lesson, your progress shows it honestly — and you know exactly where another landing is worth it.

The Carry-on

The little things that make a long journey pleasant — already packed.

Harakat as needed

Show or hide the vowel marks — training wheels that grow with you until you no longer need them.

Gentle reminders exactly when your reviews are due — your travel rhythm.

Progress travels with you

Course and vocabulary decks sync across all devices — phone, tablet, wherever you learn.

8 app languages

The app guides you through Arabic in English, German, French, Turkish and more.

Typing Arabic made easy

Step-by-step help for the Arabic keyboard on iOS and Android — type like a local.

Honest progress

Stars show what has really stuck — and where a second landing is worth it.

From the logbook · Month 3

First real conversation without translating in my head. It was only about tea. It felt like flying.

From the Passports

Stamps to be proud of

You're not traveling alone — three fellow travelers, three logbooks, opened after a few months on board.

Entry: Moroccan

"My family speaks Darija, and I never dared to join in. After three months I'm having real conversations with my aunt — she cried."

Amina, 29 · Berlin
★★★★★
Entry: Modern Standard Arabic

"I failed three times with books. Here I've been speaking since day one — the role-plays feel like real encounters, not like class."

Jonas, 34 · Vienna
★★★★★
Entry: Syrian

"The pronunciation feedback is mercilessly honest — which is exactly why my Syrian fiancé now understands me without asking twice."
