Hi I just wanted to email and tell you guys that your doing a wonderful job. Your site has helped me a lot in terms of the media aspect of Arabic and I'm grateful for that. I've been studying arabic now for a solid year (In Egypt) and have gone through many methods of learning this beautfiul language and when I stumbled on your site I knew I found a gem :-). Thanks Imran

My reading ability in Arabic has improved tremendously since I subscribed. I am so glad this is available. All the best, silvia

I am an English speaker from Canada with little prior knowledge of Arabic. I have just received my order of the archives of Natural Arabic 2006. Perhaps I am being hasty since I have had little time to sit down and really tackle your product, but I am exceedingly pleased with it thus far. I still use my dictionary and study grammar from other sources but your concept seems to help me remember vocabulary much easier. For instance I go to www.madinaharabic.com and have a harder time remembering vocabulary. Although that site is useful for grammar. It seems strange that I have never myself seen such a simple concept applied to learning other languages. It would seem a "no-brainer". I would hope that in the future you could add even more articles per week. Keep up the good work. Joshua

Just wanted to say thanks very much for your efforts, it's a great Arabic language learning website. Doubtlessly, there many potentials, and hope to see more of your project in the near future. All the best, Dhafir

I've been using Natural Arabic for several months now. It's an excellent tool and I'm learning a lot from it! Thank you for all your hard work! Matthew

Your site is simply AWESOME. Usually, it would take me very long to read an article having to look up all unknown words in a "physical" paper dictionary, which disheartened me and made me quit the effort; now, using your site I can learn new words in a very natural way, just like Arabs do, I guess, without having to use a dictionary.
