Arabic is the primary language spoken in Egypt, Morocco, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, and Jordan, and in the cities of Cairo, Dubai, Fez, Marrakesh, Riyadh and Amman. Arabic is normally written in Arabic script. In this app, you can choose to display all Arabic words in Arabic script, in Roman script, or both. The Arabic translators for LingoPix are from Egypt and Jordan, and we made every effort to use Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) terms whenever possible. Our voice artist is from Lebanon.
