Welcome to Authentic Arabic!
If you have ever wanted to learn Arabic to communicate naturally โ whether for travel, making connections with friends and family, or immersing yourself in Middle Eastern culture โ you have found your home.
Authentic Arabic was created with a clear mission: to make learning spoken Arabic practical, enjoyable, and accessible.
Learners often get discouraged by traditional textbooks that focus exclusively on Modern Standard Arabic (FuSHa). While FuSHa is vital for literature, news, and formal writing, nobody speaks it as a native mother tongue in daily life.
Across the cafes of Beirut, the historic streets of Damascus, Jerusalem, and Amman, people speak regional spoken dialects (Ammiyya).
Our main starting point is Levantine Arabic (Shami), spoken throughout Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, and Jordan. It is one of the most widely understood, musical, and influential spoken dialects in the Arab world, featured heavily in music, podcasts, and cinema.
๐ก Future Growth: While Levantine Arabic is our founding focus, Authentic Arabic is built to expand. In the future, we will incorporate practical guides for other regional dialects across the Arab world!
Our lessons are crafted specifically for practical, active learners:
