Question

What are similarities between Arabic and English language

Answer 1

Comparing the Arabic language with English

Arabic and English are two of the most popular languages on Earth. Their popularity is not based on their similarity, however. Both of these languages are very different in a number of significant ways.

*alphabet: Arabic has 28 consonants (English 24) and 8 vowels/diphthongs.

*Phonology: English has about three times as many vowel sounds as Arabic.

*Grammar - Verb/Tense: Arabic has no verb to be in the present tense, and no auxiliary do. Furthermore, there is a single present tense in Arabic, as compared to English, which has the simple and continuous forms. These differences result in errors such as She good teacher, When you come to Germany?, I flying to Egypt tomorrow or Where he going?
