Biggest challenges for Arabic speakers learning English

If you know what’s hard in advance, you can learn faster. These are the main things that slow down Arabic speakers when they learn English.

  • English is written left-to-right — the complete opposite of Arabic
  • English vowel sounds are far more varied than Arabic's vowel system
  • Arabic has no 'p' sound — speakers often substitute 'b' instead
  • English has no dual form — Arabic speakers must unlearn the singular-dual-plural habit

Focus on one challenge at a time. Small daily practice beats long study sessions.
