Arabic is such a difficult language, especially at the beginning, because you have to learn almost every word from scratch. You can almost never link to words you know from your native language (unless it's Hebrew, in which case Arabic is easy).
Language Level | Number of Base Words Needed |
---|---|
A1 | 500 |
A2 | 1000 |
B1 | 2000 |
B2 | 4000 |
C1 | 8000 |
C2 | 16000 |
So, it takes a few years to acquire the necessary vocabulary.
In this quiz, you can test how confident you are in Arabic. The 20 words are randomly selected – from a database of the 6000 most common words.
