Arabic Alphabet - Letters and Sounds
This App will Help you to read and write Arabic alphabet easy and fast.
We used colors and icons, so no other language is used in the app other than Arabic. It has a simple alphabet for the first stage, then with letters names and how they are written in different positions in a word.The app has very useful quizzes to make sure earner knows the Arabic letters names, shapes and different sounds.
We also included Arabic numbers from zero to Million.
The Arabic alphabet has 28 basic letters. Plus two extra characters, the Hamza ء and the taa-marbouta ة. The letters are written from right to left. Many letters look similar but are distinguished from one another by dots above or below their central part. These dots are an integral part of a letter, since they distinguish between letters that represent different sounds. For example, the Arabic letters transliterated as b and t have the same basic shape, but b has one dot below, ب, and t has two dots above, ت.
Both printed and written Arabic are cursive, with most of the letters within a word directly connected to the adjacent letters. There are no distinct upper and lower case letter forms.
Most letters have 7 sounds and four different shapes in writing depending on its position in the word. This app will teach you the different sounds and shapes of Arabic letters.

Latest reviews of Arabic Alphabet - Letters and Sounds app for iPhone and iPad
Well, you would need some basic information about the arabic alphabet before you start with this. Youll find lots of general reading about it in the internet. But once you want to train your theoretical knowledge, this app is probably a good idea. It seems limited in its functions and in the overall content, but I liked exactly that. If you want to learn the arabic alphabet, distinguishing the grouped consonants from each other gives you a hard time. The app can help a lot here. What I liked especially is the complete writing of the vowels. You would normally only find all the vowels only in religious texts, poetry, or childrens books (as I was told). Guess how hard it is to learn a language like English whn nl th cnsnnts r wrttn and you have no clue about the meaning in the beginning. The app comes along with some small tests, which I liked as well. Some are just simple test about the names of the signs, some are more challanging, like comparing similar consonants or similarly pronounced consonants. The more sophisticated questions about the use of the alphabet seem to be missing, but you will have to deal with what is there for some time anyway. So, not the end, thats right, but a good starting point for your first training.
I can not listen anything from this app. There is no value to buy.
If you pay for options, They cant be reflected and cant be restored.
One of the best language training programs Ive ever used.Superb
I purchased this application and there is no audio so I do not recommend it. It is not educational without the sound of the letters.
