Arabic is a language to which you return. This is a word designed for those who wish to connect with their language and discover the depth and beauty inherent in each word.
Every day, a single Arabic word greets you, carrying within it a story: its meaning as documented by linguists centuries ago, its root connecting it to dozens of other words, and its journey through the Semitic languages, from Akkadian to Syriac to Hebrew.
— The Poetry Collection — From word to verse. A single verse from the finest examples of Arabic poetry appears before you, presented in the exact diacritical marks used by the Arabs. Swipe to move from rhyme to rhyme, from Al-Mutanabbi to Al-Farazdaq to Shawqi. If a verse captivates you, click to read the complete poem with its numbered lines. Search through verses, poets, and poems, save what resonates with you in "Memorized," and share the verse with an elegant card to gift to someone you love.
— Meanings from the Mother Dictionaries — The complete texts from the dictionaries of Maqayis al-Lughah, Lisan al-Arab, Al-Sihah, and others. Read what Ibn Faris and Ibn Manzur wrote in their own words, and discover dimensions in every word forgotten by modern usage.
— Root Explorer — Arabic is an inflectional language: every word belongs to a root, and every root is a tree from which dozens of words branch out. Click on any root and watch its words dance around it like a constellation of stars — and discover the hidden connections between words you thought were separate.
— Word Journey — Every Arabic word has relatives in other languages. Trace the origin of a word through the Semitic languages — from the tongues of the Ugaritians to the Syriac manuscripts — and discover that what you pronounce today is an echo of sounds thousands of years old. A map shows you how a word has traveled across civilizations and centuries.
— Search by Word and Root — Search for any word or root and instantly find its meaning and derivatives. Search by word to find its definition, or by root to explore its entire language family.
— Writing Tablet — Language is not complete with reading alone. Write in Arabic, and the keyboard will guide you with synonyms and rhymes—discovering that the word you're looking for was closer than you thought. Save what you've written and return to it whenever you like.
— The Letter Game: Beginning and End —
From the poets' debates and writers' riddles, a game was born. Two letters are before you—a beginning and an end—and you must come up with a word that starts with the first and ends with the second before time runs out. Every correct word prolongs your time on the board, and every mistake steals precious seconds. Three modes, following the tradition of the ancients: Deliberation (two fixed letters, searching the dictionary for the most obscure words), Improvisation (two letters that change with each word, leaving only quick thinking), and Competition (two players face to face, taking turns with the keyboard as poets took turns with rhymes). A game of language, not against it: every word the game allows is documented in Arabic dictionaries.
— English Translation —
For those who switch between two languages, or want to share the beauty of Arabic with a friend who doesn't read it — an optional English translation for each word, downloaded once and staying with you.
— The Garden of Words —
Gather the words you love in a garden that grows with you. Plant a word with a touch of your heart, and watch it transform from a seed into a tree each time you return to it — and wither if you neglect it. A living garden that reflects your journey with your language, gently reminding you of a word that has begun to fade.
— Share the Beauty of Language —
Found a word worth seeing? Turn it into a stylish card and share it with your loved ones — because language lives when it is shared.
