It's wrong, you are correct.

Duolingo Arabic pronunciation needs to be correctedd, and not only for this course

[Sagid.Elhillali]

Nunation seems to be turned on in some of the words in this course and not consistent throughout.

[MasterYods]

What is nunation?

[husseinHr]

It's the -uN or -iN etc at ends of words.

[fortniteTimBoss1]

Amalaicum salem

[benton.1]

There is also a problem with the computer TTS readings of some words. I think that that is the problem here with the pronunciation.

[Away54]

Sagid.Elhillali,

The "-an" nunation cannot be performed on the ريجا word. It should be ended up with the "-aa" sound.

[vsandl]

I was told there is no hard G sound in Arabic, except in Egypt ian Arabic.

March.2021: they fixed the bug

[LevyAleph]

All these mistakes in duolingo make me worry about what im really learning in arabic!

[BluuDuud]

Why is it a g sound, i thought that symbol was a j sound

[NawshinZihan]

Duolingo your audio tacks really needs some work.

[agnan123]

Why is the letter next to last in "Riga" pronounced as a hard g, I thought the letter was pronounced as a j? Can it be pronounced in multiple ways?

[Mocha5637]

It's pronounced as ''Wa Riga'' not ''Waryajan''

[btmash]

They should remove the "and" ffom the answers. Gives away second half of answer

[Haroon193899]

Why is 'wa Riga' pronouncing as wariyaja.

[mollydot]

Pronunciation still waryajan in December 2020

[Richie8123]

It should be riga not rija
In arabic its written rija
And the duo said it right riga

[Flwr.fellr]

Does anyone know how to type the "wa" sound on a virtual keyboard. I'm using swiftkey and the Arabic PC keyboard and all I can get is "وا" everything I found says to use shift but the keyboard doesnt have a shift key. Normally the short vowels auto populate.

[Muhammad354]

There is no any problem with the pronunciation, Duolingo is trying to pronounce the English words in Arabic letters. As a secondary school student in Malaysia, this things are basic knowledge when i was in primary school. Most of the schools in Malaysia teaches Arabic in primary and secondary school.
