Parallel Arabic vs Learning Transformer

Most Arabic apps teach the formal language that almost nobody speaks at home or on the street. Parallel Arabic teaches the Arabic people actually use: Egyptian, Levantine and Moroccan Darija, plus Modern Standard Arabic. Pick your dialect and start speaking from the first lesson. SPEAK FROM DAY ONE Practise real conversations with the AI Tutor in your dialect. Say it out loud, get scored on your pronunciation, and try again until it sounds right. READ IN PARALLEL Every story and lesson shows Arabic script, transliteration and English side by side, so you can follow along whether or not you can read Arabic yet. Tap any word for its meaning, audio and example sentences. A CLEAR PATH Follow step-by-step lessons from the alphabet upwards, or create your own lessons, stories and practice sentences on any topic you care about. GAMES THAT MAKE WORDS STICK Short rounds for vocabulary, letters and listening: Word Scramble, Odd One Out, Memory Pairs, Speed Round and more, with a fresh daily challenge. NEVER FORGET A WORD Save words as you go. Spaced repetition brings each one back just before you would forget it, in new sentences and stories, not the same flashcard every time. COMPARE DIALECTS See how the same word or phrase changes between Cairo, Beirut, Casablanca and the newsroom. STAY ON TRACK Daily streaks, reminders, a weekly leaderboard, and a vocabulary map that grows with every word you learn.

A Transformer, built by hand and shown one step at a time. Twenty-three screens follow "Attention Is All You Need" (Vaswani et al., 2017) in the paper's own order: a word becoming numbers, the three vectors, the scores, the softmax, four heads merged into one, the mask, the second attention, and the loop that writes one word at a time. What this is not: a trained model. Every weight here was set by hand, so that each one can be read in a single line. Nine numbers stand for a word instead of 512. One encoder layer and one decoder layer instead of six of each. Four heads, four words of vocabulary, one short sentence. What it is: the paper's arithmetic at a size you can check by hand. Every number on every screen is computed while you look at it — no videos, no quizzes, no account, no network. Steps 1 to 10 are free. Steps 11 to 23 are one purchase, made once and kept.
