مع السلامة

Pronunciation is a very significant issue in Arabic and mispronunciation could result in an easy misunderstanding. 

So, be careful! Because, different pronunciation, could be critical. I want you to be careful about that, and pay adequate attention to my pronunciation and try to imitate.

I, here, described what is Arabic as a language. Stay tuned for the next Episode.
