How to Learn Arabic Language

Arabic short and long vowels can be confusing for some beginners, they are also called "diacritics" by some. Short vowels are basically little symbols or marks above or below letters that determine the way this letter is pronounced and connected with the surrounding letters.
Vowels are of special importance for those who want to learn to read the Quran and sometimes it is used as a way to exercise.

They also determine the position of the word (subject, object, etc) and have so much to do with grammar but this isn't important at the beginners' stage. I found these 2 videos on youtube by a girl called Maha whome I think has succeeded in describing the topic in a very simple way. The important thing to remember is that you should practice a lot, try reading and spelling paragraphs in Arabic and also try to watch the related videos if you can.

Good luck :).

Here is an Arabic adjectives list to help you know some of the very common and most used adjectives in Arabic. This is for beginners so I won't bother you with plural forms because they change with the position of the word.
The adjectives are in masculine form, for the feminine form of most of them you will just add "ah" ـة
at the end for example:
Tall (in hight) = طويل (Masculin). The feminine form is طويلة.

Here we go:
