Arabius: Learn Saudi Arabic

Arabius

About this app

Learn Saudi Arabic in a natural way, without having to memorize or study! Our unique ICE Methodology (Immersive, Customized, Experiential) gets you understanding and interacting with new words faster than any other methodology.

WHAT IS ARABIUS?
A revolutionary language learning methodology developed for our clients at our center in Riyadh. Rather than focusing on memorization and speaking, we focus first on simply understanding and interacting with words through fun and exciting games. Languages are not memorized, they are acquired naturally. No studying or memorizing required. Just play the games and you will start to understand basic words and sentences quicker than you ever thought possible.

WHY DO YOU FOCUS ON SAUDI ARABIC?
First of all, because we love Saudi! But also because Saudi Arabic is what people actually speak in daily life in KSA. Modern Standard Arabic is a beautiful and important language, but our focus is on helping you in real communication in daily life.Within a few sessions in our app, you will know common greetings and responses. And with a few more, you will be hearing and arranging complete sentences in Saudi Arabic

HOW IS ARABIUS BETTER?
Other language-learning apps are focused on either getting you hooked rather than actual learning OR rote memorization. Instead we focus on teaching you new words in an intuitive way. Rather than focusing on speaking, we focus on teaching you to understand many words at once. We use recordings of native speakers rather than computer generated sounds so you can hear all the nuances of the language. We NEVER use English to teach Arabic! Translation methodologies do not work. Rather we use pictures to encourage your brain to associate the object with the sound of the new word.


KEY APP FEATURES:
MINI SESSIONS
After completing specified milestones, you will be able to pay (or use a coupon code) to attend a mini session! These are live video sessions with a native speaker for 30 minutes to practice your language skills. Sometimes, these mini sessions will be content reviews. Other times, there will be new content, specific to the mini sessions, that you will learn in your live session. This feature makes the Arabius App extremely unique from other language-learning apps. The ability to connect with a live, native speaker is a guarantee that your language is progressing, and is a goal to strive towards!

CULTURE CARDS
As you venture through the sessions, you will earn golden dates as a reward for your efforts! These can be cashed in at our store for unique culture cards on interesting cultural topics (such as Arabic coffee!)

TOUR SAUDI
Since the Arabius App is entirely focused on Saudi Language and Culture, you will be traveling virtually through various regions of the country! Enjoy all the distinct aspects of Saudi Arabic learning language and culture as you visit the country virtually!

LEARNING STYLE
While the instructional language of the app is English, when it comes to teaching Arabic, you will find that no English is used! Everything is following our immersive methodology. Users will match sounds they hear to images they see, focusing on hearing and speaking first, and reading later. This allows for faster learning as it follows a more natural immersion style. It also allows for you to learn and understand unique words for foods, drinks, phrases, and items that are common in Saudi, but don’t always have a clear translation.

SPACED REPETITION WORD STRENGTHENING
By strategically selecting when and how words are reviewed, repetition is minimized and language-learning speed remains efficient and effective.

Ratings and reviews

Absolutely beautiful app. Immersive. Chock-full of little details that make this a work of art! And effective. The voice speed adjustment is great. There are haptic hiccups, but it's manageable. An invitation to slow down maybe? Live at the pace of the desert 🏜️ and you'll be fine :) Would love the ability to review each lesson after the fact with the writing and translation, to be sure I got the meaning right, and improve my reading. Maybe it occurs later in the app...

The app isn't using my speaker, forcing me to hold it up to my ear. Obviously that makes it very difficult to use. Please advise. Thanks. edit: restarting my phone fixed the problem. I'll leave a 5 star until I've had achance to really dig into the app. Thanks for creating it. I'm traveling to the Kingdom in the fall and think this will be a huge help for my trip.

Was loving the app and the content, since the new update went into effect the app keeps freezing on me and not loading properly during lessons. On a separate note, during the cultural cards I don't see all of the text and when I try to scroll it moves to the next slide without finishing the one I was trying to complete.
