Test Your Arabic Language Level with This Arabic Vocabulary Quiz

Last updated 1 year ago.

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).

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.
