Questions in Arabic

Be sure to learn these essential questions in Arabic before you travel! When does the bus leave? When does the train arrive? Where is the museum? The restroom? After this free audio lesson you’ll know how to ask 'when' and 'where' in Arabic. 

 
Need to exchange money? Looking for a tourist information center? The Rocket Arabic team is here to help!
 
Listen to the pronunciation, and practice these common questions and Arabic words aloud. We’ve made it real easy to follow and you'll never have an excuse to be late or lost in an Arabic-speaking country.

How to pronounce questions in Arabic

As hard as you try, without helpful feedback your Arabic pronunciation is never going to be the same as a native speaker’s. If you've found it difficult to perfect the way you say Arabic words and phrases, this lesson will help you.


Using the blue Rocket Record buttons you can record the way you say each word or phrase, and compare it with the way a native speaker of Arabic does. That’s right, with Rocket Languages voice mapping technology you can record your voice as many times as you need until your pronunciation matches the Arabic speaker!
