Arabic · Travel & tourism

Speak Arabic for your trip — before it happens.

At a Marrakech or Amman airport, asking "أين المطار؟" (where is the airport?) when you ARE at the airport reads as either panicked or exploitative; asking "أين البوابة رقم ٤٥" (where is gate 45?) is what the information booth is for. Substituting the right noun flips the conversation from confused to clean in a single word.

What you'll practice

  • Order at a restaurant with the polite form — "أريد هذا، من فضلك" without stacking "ببب" politeness markers
  • Ask for directions with أين + genitive — "أين الحمام؟" + simple prepositional answers
  • Handle an airport check-in — "عندي حجز باسم…" + carry-on / checked luggage disambiguation
  • Navigate regional pronunciation differences — Gulf vs. Levantine vowel shifts in passing

Sora · tutor

أهلاً وسهلاً. ماذا تحب أن تطلب؟

Welcome. What would you like to order?

You

أريد شاي.

I want tea.

Sora · tutor

"أريد"مع "من فضلك" يكون أرق. أعد صياغة الطلب.

"أريد" + "من فضلك" reads as softer. Rephrase.

You

أريد شاي بالنعناع، من فضلك.
