The Arabic We Speak

Review by Benjamin Lutz

The short:

Lead by Dalal and Amani, The Arabic We Speak is a Arabic-language podcast with all levels of difficulty to best learn the Levantine Dialect of Arabic

The long: 

Fully bilingual in Arabic and English, this podcast showcases life in Amman, Jordan! Through the podcast you will hear the views on and experiences of everything ranging from quaint Arab traditions to daily, mundane concerns. Each podcast episode is accompanied with audio script and exercises in the form of a lesson plan. You can train your ear to some spoken Levantine Arabic or you could extend it into an Arabic language mini-class. The choice is yours! This podcast asks learners to discover language on their own and become autonomous learners. Their learning material is beneficial for learners who already have a base in the language, as it encourages them to use their existing knowledge to work things out.

To listen or not to listen:

A must! The range of topics, vocabulary, and engagement makes it easy for anyone to learn the nuances of Levantine Arabic! Thank you Dalal and Amani for creating this language learning resource!
