Nothing but love for this language. Thank-you Maha for opening my horizons. I would never in my life dreamed as a kid growing up in the streets of N.Y. that I would once develop a passion for this language, history and culture. You are really a great teacher and I am very thankful for the time you take helping us. Chokran, chokran.
Maha Yakoub is the greatest teacher of Arabic on TH-cam. She is beautiful, charming, smart and funny and she makes me smile a lot, which is hard to do. She is a blessing from Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala.سُبْحَانَهُ وَ تَعَالَى
Hi Maha, I don't rememeber how I have found you, but I think you are a great teacher! I was not even planning on learning Arabic, but you teach in such a fun way that it makes me wanna learn it! :D As I have started making language lessons myself I watch your lessons for inspiration as well. Keep up the wounderful work!
This video very helpful especially for me, a total stranger in Arab world. I really enjoyed watching from lesson 1 to 6. Thank you Ms. Maha. From Dona of Philippines 🇵🇭🙏🙌☺️
1) سيارة 'sayarah' car 2) بيض 'baydha' egg 3) ضرب 'dharba' hit/strike Writing goes fast enough, thanks to your great teaching method (grouping letters by similarity) but typing is a whole other thing. I have a picture of an Arabic keyboard on a bulletin board in front of me to aid me here. :)
Maha, I'm just starting to learn Arabic and I find your lessons easier to follow. Do you have a video showing how to answer the homework for each lessons. I want to see if my I did it correctly. Thank you and Keep up the good work.
Your lessons are really helpful and interesting.Specially your presentation is very impressive and charming! Please continue to teach us. I am eagerly waiting for your next lesson #5 Thanks a lot.
So here is my homework (spoiler alert!): What I do is try to combine the letters in my notebook by hand first, then try to read it and transliterate and see if I know/can guess the meaning. After this I go to google translate and type the letters in there to see if I wrote it correctly, see how it is pronounced and the meaning. Here it goes: 1) سيارة = syarah = car (I am so happy, I recognised this one, but I did not know this is how you wrote it) 2) بيض ´= bydd = eggs (same thing as with number 1, but I thought it was singular: egg). I transliterated with double d to indicate the gutural sound... 3) ضرب = darb = hit (did not know this one, but I do know darbouka, so i thought it would be from the same family! Now I know darbouka comes - of course!! - from "hit") yuhuuu!!
Hi Maha. You are awesome. You are born to teach :). It is easy to lecture but difficult to engage the learner but you just do that effortlessly and make it fun to learn. Hearty compliments. Have you uploaded letter groups 5 and 6 already? I do not find it. Please do it soon, I'm eager to learn more... Thanks for making such awesome videos.
Ms.Maha would you mind doing a video on jobs and workplaces in Arabic? I would like to know because currently in my Arabic 1 class, that's what we're focusing on and familia members. Thank you, have a wonderful day. ~ Love from the states. x
we still did not cover the circle with two dots on "sayyaraten". I went back through the lessons, and I did not see it. I would REALLY appreciate an explanation for that, because its function seems to change sometimes.
Thank god you make videos or i dont know what i would do i recently moved to a arabic country and i have no idea how to speak it i have a arabic teacher in school that teaches like we have bin studying arabic for 4 years,and if i dont know something he says 'check on the internet' and he expects from me to do my arabic homework -.-'
Hi Maha, it would be great if you posted how to read the words from homeworks. I love writing in arabic, but it just kills me I can't figure out how to read :)
I agree tyagaraja. The lessons are great but I also wish there was a reading and pronunciation part of the lessons as well. this could be a going over the homework portion possibly???
Ryan Hoel Probably something that can't be covered that easily. It's likely something we have to learn by practice. There's probably a logic once you reach a certain level (when you get the feel of the language). Well harmony is probably more correct than logic.
Maha devo farti questa domanda da secoli :) So scrivere e riconoscere tutte le lettere dell'alfabeto arabo.....ma come posso leggere un giornale per esempio o qualunque cosa dove non ci siano i segni delle vocali? cioè io vedo scritto per esempio queste tre lettere كتاب mettiamo ke non conosca questa parola, come faccio a sapere che si pronuncia kitaab....e non , kutaab, kataab?...:D so che con tre lettere possono esserci diverse vocali che cambiano il significato....quindi a meno non leggo un libro per bambini dove sono segnate le vocali, in teoria uno per poter leggere delle frasi deve x forza sapere il significato e quindi conoscere tantissime parole? ti ringrazio :)
hey Maha..hope ua doing good, you are doing a great job in teaching Arabic. I am also interested in learning Arabic I am currently living in Saudi Arabia. The problem with me is I can read write Arabic but I cannot speak it.could you please help me regarding learning Arabic..do write to me will be waiting for your reply..cya
Hi Maha, Hello there. Can you help me out? I'm learning arabic by using the book "Alif Baa".. only problem I am facing is handwrite the word "yaHjub" .. I know the combination H and J in handwriting as well as y and H.. but these three together I cannot figure out how to.
so I thought...ok, I can do this..no problem. I started to practice...and it looks like the small child learning to write. yes, one must practice..especially being Western, I write the opposite direction.
LearnArabicwithMaha Hi, Maha. Could you make a video explaining the structure of the arabic language: Such as what comes first: noum or adjective... how the sufixes work. I am lot. Thanks :)
from what I learn, verb + subject + object + adv. but if the subject is pronoun, like he or she, the subject become one word with verb, like suffixe. about that suffixe, it's very complicated to explain at this comment box.
***** So the Haa is the gutteral ha, from lesson 3? I thought it looked more like a double circle backwards 'a' rather than that? And in that lesson it shows a big 'O' with no dots above?
+Willie Williams the symbols that change the way the words sounds are explained in the videos about the vowels, but they're not dots. This is a whole different symbol. Watch the video.
the symbol o with 2 dots " ة " is called " taa marboota تاء مربوطة " :) it comes with female singular noun .. " but beware not all female singular nouns comes with it " it just comes at the end .. not at the beginning nor the middle .. it's not a main letter . it sounds like ha" ه هـ " it's not a main lettre .. I think she'll teach it in advanced lesson .. coz it much complicated .. sometimes sound like "taa" and sometimes like " haa"
Nothing but love for this language. Thank-you Maha for opening my horizons.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH MAHA
Maha your a really good teacher ,I am learning pretty fast with u😀
Ms.Maha would you mind doing a video on jobs and workplaces in Arabic? I would like to know because currently in my Arabic 1 class, that's what we're focusing on and familia members. Thank you, have a wonderful day. ~ Love from the states. x

Maha you are a great teacher. I am very insterested in learning Arabic. Please guide us to te 5th and 6th videos. Please Please!!
i have a book that shows the print and hand written versions of medial 'M' (mim) as above the line
1) Sayara = car; 2) Bayd(a) = egg; 3) Sarb (a) = blow. In my dictionary, they added a tarmarbuta to no.s 2) and 3). Shukran jazeelan!
Could you show us where to find the video with the ö ? Please?
Lesson 5 and 6?
A parte de bonita , muy divertida, gracias Good LooK
(سيارة بيض ضرب) وتعلومك كتير حلو عاشت ايدك واستمري يامبدعة
You're a great person Maha, I love you !
Question : Why wasnt there a short vowel on shams but there was one on sabr ?
I liked your FB page and will show you all I have learned soon. You have a very good heart.
Great job. Maha
is great handwriting, easier to learn 👍
thank you so much
When is the next part coming? I love your videos!
Maha your arabic lessons are the best on youtube, only distraction is you are too beautiful :)
you are a very good teacher and i like you so much , but pls do make videos by which we could check our answers
we still did not cover the circle with two dots on "sayyaraten". I went back through the lessons, and I did not see it. I would REALLY appreciate an explanation for that, because its function seems to change sometimes.
Are you referring to سيارة ? Its spelt Sayarah, and the Circle with tthe two dots is like an :Ah (If im not mistaken)
PhaedraDarwish the ة is a gramatical Funktion , it symbolizes the feminene words in sigular
Anyone with the link to the vowel lesson?
Hi Kamilla! Sure! It's here: th-cam.com/video/7uCDeRSy-Zg/w-d-xo.html
Greetings from Uruguay!
th-cam.com/video/3MIhB4RRVLQ/w-d-xo.html
SAH and DAH. Love that part
ض is not guttural D, it's different. But many people especially in Egypt pronounce it like this...
انا عربي سررت بمعرفتكم ❤️❤️ ألا القاء
Thank god you make videos or i dont know what i would do
i recently moved to a arabic country and i have no idea how to speak it
i have a arabic teacher in school that teaches like we have bin studying arabic for 4 years,and if i dont know something he says 'check on the internet'

use google translate for verification. It automatically combines the letters.
In the comments :)
you can go to google and write arabic keyboard
In the comments section lol
Hi Maha. I can not find lesion 4 & 5 please ... I really want to finish this lessons
素晴らしいです！
1) سيارة = Sayara (car)
2) بيض = Bayd (egg)
3) ضرب = Darab (hit)
Maha you are so cute and funny. You make me enjoy my time with your teaching.
what's the difference between Sad and Sin, and Dad and Dal in how they sound? is that one of those things its hard to pick up on in english?
Ryan Swob the sad and dad are guttural sounds meaning you say them at the back of the throat. I believe she mentioned it in the video
that sad is pronounced as if you pronounce sad with a little bit of whistle. so your lip come to front a little bit

+Pat Ryk jazakum allahu khair
which is the video for the O with the 2 dots above?
I m also looking for that, But I wasnt able to find it. did you ?
***** So the Haa is the gutteral ha, from lesson 3? I thought it looked more like a double circle backwards 'a' rather than that? And in that lesson it shows a big 'O' with no dots above?
