Modern Standard Arabic is the literary form of Arabic. Most native speakers understand it but don’t speak it. It has not been used for everyday speech in over a millennium. Modern Standard Arabic is an important tool for those who want to have access to Arabic literature, philosophy or theology. We offer a comprehensive Standard Arabic course to help you learn Arabic. The course will take you from zero to fluency in as little as three months. Create a free account and start learning with our free Modern Standard Arabic course.

Whether you live in the Gulf or not, Gulf Arabic is much more relevant for everyday usage. It’s much easier to learn since its grammar has been simplified over time, and it tends to have more loan words from English. Learning a dialect makes it easier to interact with others especially if you're surrounded by Arabic speakers. We offer a comprehensive Gulf Arabic course to help you learn Arabic. The course will take you from zero to fluency in as little as three months. Create a free account and start learning with our Gulf Arabic course.

Arcana's Arabic Language Course Calligraphy

Learn Arabic through Conversation

Arabic can seem to be a difficult language at first. Its grammar is difficult, and it belongs to a language family tree unrelated to English. 

Arcana’s Arabic course was developed using the Lexical Approach by Michael Lewis. The method uses a natural approach to learning that feels effortless. Students can achieve conversational proficiency in as little as three months. Learn more about the Lexical Approach here. 

After refining our Arabic course for more than a decade, we decided to digitise it and create a platform for Arabic learners: Arabic Online School.
