Common questions

What is Lahja?
Lahja is a language learning app for spoken Arabic dialects. It teaches 11 dialects as separate courses instead of Modern Standard Arabic, using short lessons and recordings of native speakers.
Which Arabic dialect should I learn?
Learn the one spoken by the people you want to talk to. For family, choose your familyโ€™s dialect. For travel, choose the country you are visiting. If you have no particular connection, Egyptian is the most widely understood.
Is Modern Standard Arabic the same as a dialect?
