Transcription

Asalam alaykum my dear Arabic Learners. Today we're going to keep building on what we learned in lesson one, so let's dive right in.

Let's go over what we learned in the first lesson. Remember how to say in Arabic, "I want this"? Yes, come on, say it with me: "I want this" or "I want it." On the flip side, "I don't want it" or "I don't want this." Come on, repeat after me, out loud. Great job.

The verb "repeat eat" means "learn." To get the form "to learn," we say. Now say this in Arabic: "I want to learn." You can pause the video to think out your answer. Yes, great job. Can you guess how we say "I don't want to learn"? Now let's say it without a pause, once again. Very good.

Remember how to say the word "Arabic" in Arabic? Yes, say it now. Let's practice this phrase together: "I want to learn Arabic." I'll give you a few seconds to form the sentence in your head, then let's say it together. Great job.

If you want to say "I understand" in Arabic, it would be "aam." Repeat after me. Let's break down this word into syllables and say them one by one: f, f, h, h, a, aam. Anna. I understand. Aam. Anam. Yes. As I mentioned in the first lesson, if there's another word that would come after the verb, I hook an "o" sound at the end. It becomes. Come on, say it with me. Yes. Anam or something. Great job.

Remember how to say Arabic? Now let's say, "I understand Arabic." Very good. Yes, great effort so far.

The word "in Arabic" means "a little bit." A little bit. Say it one more time. How do I say "a little bit" in Arabic? Yes. Now let's say, "I understand a little bit." "I understand a little bit." Try to say it without pausing. Yes. Did you get it right? Good job.

If you want to say "I want to understand," to get the form "to understand," we say it like this: "andam." Repeat after me. Anam. Now try to say in Arabic, "I want to understand." [Music] Yes. Once more: "I want to understand Arabic." Al Arab. You can pause the video to think out your answer. Perfect.

Feel free to pause, rewind, and practice these phrases as much as you need. Let's move on.

Remember the word for "it" or "this"? Theic. Theic. Now say, "I want to understand it." Yes. Once again, say, "I want to understand it." On the flip side, if you want to say "I don't understand it" or "I don't understand that," you say. Repeat after me. Can you guess how to say "I don't want to understand"? "I don't want to understand" is. Let's say it once without a pause.

Remember the word for "a little bit"? Now say, "I understand a little bit." Now, if you want to say "I understand well" or "very well." Well, in Arabic is. Repeat after me. How do you say "well" or "very well"? How about "a little bit"? Good job. Now let's say, "I understand very well." "Very well." Come on, think about it and write it in the comments. Yes. How about, "I understand Arabic very well"? Once more.

And now we've come to the last part of today's lesson. Can you tell me how to say in Arabic, "I want to understand very well"? Don't hesitate to drop your answer in the comments section. Remember, the more you practice, the more confident you'll become. If you have any questions, drop them in the comments below. Stay tuned for more lessons. Happy learning, everyone. Asalamu alaykum.
