    You may have noticed the tick () in some places, it is the equivalent of a soundless a or a brief
    stop, which is the closest sound to a letter which only exist in Arabic.
    The th is sometimes pronounced as th of that and sometimes as th of think, I usually state
    how you should pronounce it.
    In Arabic there are two types of "h", the sharp h and the regular "h", the sharp one is hard to
    pronounce for many foreigner however a person can be understood even the sharp "h" is
    pronounced as a regular "h".
    I hope the content of this page was useful to you, and that you learned some Arabic phrases,
    expressions and words. Make sure to memorize them to be able to use them in your daily
