Did you know that Arabic language is at least 1500 years old? Making it the sixth most spoken language in the world!
In written Arabic, they have a different system called "Abjad" which is basically a consonant alphabet because each letter represents a consonant rather than a vowel whereas the vowels are represented with marks and not a full letter.
Let's take a look at the abjad:

Something that blew my mind about this language was that it is written from right to left which means that you also have to read it from right to left. Isn't that crazy? Books have to be read from back to front!
What an interesting language, would you like to give it a try and learn it?
I don't think I could ever learn this language because of how it is written and read. I would always get confused by it!
