ARABIC – WORLD LANGUAGE OF THE MIDDLE EAST

The Arabic language
Welcome, or as they say in Arabic – أهلاً وسهلاً
Arabic belongs to the Semitic languages and is spoken by more than 290 million native speakers. Arabic is the official language in 28 countries. These include Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Israel, Kuwait, Libya, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tunisia and the United Arab Emirates. Furthermore, Arabic – together with English, French, Spanish, Chinese and Russian – is one of the six official languages of the United Nations.
Language peculiarities
As in Chinese, there are countless dialects in Arabic. In some cases, these differ so much from country to country that speakers of different Arabic dialects cannot understand each other, or can only understand each other with difficulty. Modern Standard Arabic – the written language – is universal, but differs enormously from the spoken language depending on the country/region.
The primary writing direction, i.e. the order of the consecutive individual characters, differs in Arabic from the German writing direction. This is true of most Semitic languages, as well as Hebrew. The German script is written horizontally left-to-right (primary writing direction), Arabic however is written horizontally right-to-left.

The secondary writing direction, however, is the same in Arabic and German. The secondary writing direction determines the order of the consecutive lines. In German, as in most languages using Latin script, the secondary writing direction is top-to-bottom.
In Chinese, Japanese or Korean, on the other hand, the traditional writing direction differs significantly. Asian scripts are traditionally written primarily top-to-bottom and secondarily right-to-left. However, in the course of time, Western influences affected the writing direction of these languages to that of Latin scripts. As a result, in flyers, brochures or assembly and operating instructions the Chinese, Japanese or Korean script is written left-to-right top-to-bottom, as in German.
