Sharing a friends first-ever Rails application, dedicated to Arabic learning, from 0 to 1. Pulls language learning methods from Anki, comprehensible input and more.
Hi, I'm the developer of AbjadPro. Can you tell me what browser and OS you're using? Feel free to email me at help@abjadpro.com with any other issues. Thank you!
Arabic language learning resources are few and far between. Thank you for building this. Do you know which Arabic this teaches? Koranic? Modern Standard? Levantine? Gulf?
The stories are written in Standard Arabic and the videos are categorized by dialect. If you see any errors, please click on the "Report an error" button to send an email, or email me directly at help@abjadpro.com. Thanks!
For a different method of learning Arabic (or several other languages), check out https://www.languagetransfer.org. It teaches Egyptian Arabic, explaining that the entire region knows this dialect because Egypt is the TV and movie hub of the Arabic world.
It's all audio (MP3s or streaming) and completely free, and (IMHO) the best language learning system out there. I have used it to learn Spanish, my sixth language and can't recommend it highly enough.
Hi, can you tell me on which page you can't hear the sound, and which browser and OS you're using? I'll look into it. Feel free to email me about errors at help@abjadpro.com. Thanks!

As others mentioned, I couldn't hear the sound.
There is a dire need for a good quality arabic learning app.
