Hi, I am new to Arabic and I would prefer duolingo to teach us the vocab instead of testing us on it as I am unaware of the arabic words.
New words should be underlined in orange when you're taking a lesson. Hover over or click on any word to see its definition. If you're taking a test (the key icon) and the words aren't underlined, then try quitting out and taking a normal lesson to get a feel for the words.
Definitely agree with ya But that would make the app more larger and add alphabets for all languages.

The -un ending, signalling nominative (=subject) case for indefinite singular nouns and adjectives, just as all remaining case endings, is restricted to standard (formal, official) Arabic. In casual conversation (dialects) it is obligatorily left out (except for certain fixed expressions and grammatical constructions).
Thanks for your reply! So basically, I shouldn't care about the endings when speaking in Arabic, should I?
I thought we were learning MSA, and that that would be standard (formal, official) Arabic as the name implies. Is that not the case?
as these words have not been taught in arabic, one can only guess the answers! '
i really don't understand this lesson . How can we do it without the pronunciation of the word in arabic and the translation . There is something missing .Ido not understand how to manage this new language ?
It's confusing to try to guess the meaning of those words when we never learn the vocabulary beforehand.. Would be way better to learn the Vocabulary first
Putting "new" and "amazing" as adjectives could work only if you have "an" and "a" both listed otherwise you will instantly know which adjective to pick if either "an" or "a" is left out because of English grammar. It's a bit of an unfair advantage.
i m not an Arabian, i don’t konw the meaning of Arabic words,so i can't translate Arabic word in English.
I'm surprised at starting same tests about Arabic vocabulary without learning that. Could you give me lessons for knowing new vocabulary. like, new word and its picture.
This session is not correct..... U didn't tell what is the English translation of each word before... You are directly asking questions
I've been smiling through the past lessons but now I feel like am in the wrong class
How do i now the meaning of u new words You should provide us some new words with there meaning so that we can memorize them..
I beleive before you ask someone to translate a sentence, they should be taught sentence structure and to some degree grammar.
Request you to include meaning of each word taught. That will help us learn and understand better.
It will also help if we get to understand the meaning of the word like "kajak"
It says, "why is everything in english? how do i translate into french?".
