Arabic

This page has been translated automatically. The Arabic taught in this course is modern literal Arabic as used in the media, administrative communications and business. Arab linguistic communities practice two varieties of Arabic, one essentially written, known as literary Arabic, the other essentially spoken, known as dialectal Arabic, which varies from country to country. It is these two varieties of language which, inseparably, make up their identity.
