Introduction
A language is not just a tool to convey ideas or connect people. I believe it is the very
personality of a nation. It is the identity, culture, civilization and history of a nation. It is the
container of thought and understanding. It is the horizon of man’s feelings and imagination. It
is man’s self. It is the link between the body and the mind. It was God who taught man to

Arabic language & Cultural
communication
One's language strongly participates in
forming one's culture and
communication patterns. Arabic
language itself led the Arab-Islamic
culture to be past-oriented, certainty-
oriented, and collectivistic. Arabic
language also led the Arab-Islamic
communication patterns to be high-
context and deductive.

Arabic language
Arabic is a Semitic language that first emerged in the 1st
to 4th centuries CE. It is now the lingua franca of the
Arab world. It is named after the Arabs, a term initially
used to describe peoples living in the Arabian Peninsula
bounded by eastern Egypt in the west, Mesopotamia in
the east, and the Anti-Lebanon mountains and northern
Syria in the north, as perceived by ancient Greek
geographers. The ISO assigns language codes to 32
varieties of Arabic, including its standard form, Modern
Standard Arabic, also referred to as Literary Arabic,
which is modernized Classical Arabic. This distinction
exists primarily among Western linguists; Arabic
speakers themselves generally do not distinguish
between Modern Standard Arabic and Classical Arabic,

Arabic recognition
globally
Arabic is the fifth language in the united nations
and has recently been selected among the top 10
languages in the world in the uk, and arabic
learners and other speakers have often expressed
their happiness after this experience, which was
self-contained and useful abroad, where learning
creates more opportunities for a person's self-
development, not to mention jobs, friction and real
communication with members of the arab world.
the most important thing that arabic education has
achieved for speakers is to correct the clothed
understanding of the western world about arabs and
muslims.

cultural civilization

civilized title, which is the tool of study and
education through its various stages, which is the
platform of thinking and its instruments, and it is the
bearer of civilization and its incubator, which is the
mirror of society intellectually, scientifically, socially
and the climax of its age. one vision of the world and
those who owned two languages have two visions of
the world.

civilization played in the
history?
Arab-islamic civilization played a major and important role in human history,
the building of its civilization and in human communication with the rest of the
world's peoples and civilizations in the middle ages, when it was a kiss for

literature, etc., and no one is aware of the weakness and weakness that has
afflicted the modern Arab and Islamic world in its various intellectual, political,
economic and social aspects, where it has become a prey to globalization and
the global transcontinental political and economic blocs, and his voice has
become dim in international forums. the global institutions, and the hope to
unite us in returning to the language of its glory and its role in the renaissance
again, and perhaps this breakthrough in the field of Arab education for speakers
of other development and prosperity to herald the return of Arabic to it as the
bridge that builds the new relations between the peoples of the world and its
states.
How is it related to
other countries?
● Arabic for speakers of other countries is a real bridge to
human and cultural communication, it expresses the
ideas, beliefs, visions, customs and traditions of Arabs,
carrying arab-islamic culture and transmitting it through
books, films, songs and music. Arabic has seen an

growth of more than 150% compared to other languages.
