#alªarabiyyah ألعربية

These words, #allughatu lªarabiyyah ألغت لعربية, are pronounced somewhat like "ul-loogha tool a-arabeeyah" and mean "the Arabic language" (you might wish to call it #allughah ألغة for short). We learned to write the first word, #allughah ألغة, in the previous lesson. The second word, #lªrbyh ألعربيه (meaning "the Arabic one"), has seven letters:

ا ل ع ر ب ي ه

Well... to be precise, the last letter is not a h ه (D. L.) but a bound t ت, which just looks like a h ه, but carries two dots.

To write them, first draw these strokes beginning by the rightmost one. I've drawn them with different colors so that you'll know where you have to stop the marker: draw one at a time, don't try to do all of them at once. Copy them, all in black ink, and then add the dots, IN DUE ORDER, namely from right to left. You may place each dot aligned with its letter's head or a bit to the left.

To finish this lesson, draw the two words you've learned so far a few times, #allughatu lªarabiyyah ألغت لعربية, but very very slowly. After doing your homework, you might want to follow these links:

ا ل ع ر ب ي ه

for further tips about writing each letter.
