Arabic language<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Arabic language belongs to the Semitic language family and developed around 3000 years ago on the Arabian Peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under the influence of ancient northwest Arabian trading tribes, a standardized Arabic lingua franca developed.
The oldest form of Arabic, known as \u201cClassical Arabic\u201d, was significantly influenced by the Koran in the 7th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over time, different dialects and variants of Arabic developed, which are spoken in different regions today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Arabic language has had a major influence on the culture, literature and history of the Middle East and is spoken by more than 310 million people as their mother tongue and by a further 424 million as a second or foreign language. Around 10,000 people in Dresden speak Arabic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What makes it special are the guttural sounds, which can make it quite difficult to learn this language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Script<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Arabic script originated in the 4th century AD and is based on the Aramaic alphabet. Different scripts were developed over time, including the Kufi script in the 7th century and the Naskh script in the 10th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is based on the Arabic writing system, which consists of 28 letters. The short vowels are indicated by strokes and small characters above the consonants, but only in textbooks. Otherwise, the vowels are imagined and spoken, but not written.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The letters are written from right to left and have different shapes depending on whether they are at the beginning, middle or end of a word. The Arabic alphabet is used by several languages, including Arabic, Persian, Urdu and many other languages in the Middle East and North Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
