Question

Is there a way to learn this quickly? How long will it take to become fluent?

Community Answer

It depends on how easily you're able to learn Arabic. If you study for a few hours every day, it will help in learning the language. You can't really estimate how long it will take you to become fluent -- everyone is different.

Question

Can reading the Quran (which is in Arabic) improve my Arabic ?

Ruby

Top Answerer

Yes, as this counts as immersing yourself in the language. However, keep in mind that the Quran is written in an older form of Arabic, so modern-day Arabic may not sound like in the Quran.
