Asla vs PopPond

Learn spoken Arabic — the real thing, the everyday Arabic people actually speak at home and on the street, not the Modern Standard Arabic of textbooks. Asla teaches you the dialect your family understands: colloquial, everyday Arabic, not formal MSA. MANY DIALECTS — YOURS IS ALREADY HERE Asla covers several Arabic dialects, and they're all in the app: • Tunisian Arabic — the most complete, the ideal place to start • Levantine Arabic (Lebanese) • Moroccan Arabic (Darija) • Algerian Arabic Pick the one that's yours: your family's dialect, your country of origin, or the region you care about. One app, real spoken Arabic — not a school subject. NO ARABIC SCRIPT NEEDED You start without learning the letters. Every word and sentence is written in Latin transliteration (Arabic transliteration / phonetic Arabic), so you read and speak from minute one. The Arabic alphabet can come later, if you ever want it. WHAT'S INSIDE ASLA • Flashcards with spaced repetition: review at the right moment and remember for the long run • Native pronunciation: every word spoken by real voices, not robotic text-to-speech • Useful example sentences: everyday Arabic you can reuse right away • Transliteration on everything: spoken Arabic without the script, start to finish • Multiple dialects in one app: Tunisian, Levantine, Moroccan, Algerian WHO IT'S FOR • The diaspora reconnecting with their heritage and the language of their family • People who understand a little but don't dare to speak • Complete beginners who want something usable, not abstract grammar • Travelers who want the real dialect, not Standard Arabic WHY DIALECT, NOT STANDARD ARABIC The Arabic taught in schools (Modern Standard Arabic / MSA) is almost never the Arabic people speak. Nobody orders a coffee in MSA. Asla teaches you the living language directly — spoken Arabic, colloquial Arabic, everyday Arabic — so you understand and get understood. Reconnect with your heritage, one card at a time. Download Asla and start speaking your dialect today. getasla.com

PopPond teaches first Arabic words in the dialect your family actually speaks. Every card is a real photo, and every word is recorded by a native speaker in seven dialects: Fusha (Modern Standard Arabic), Egyptian, Lebanese, Palestinian, Syrian, Moroccan Darija and Algerian Darija. Whether the family speaks Levantine Arabic, Egyptian Arabic or Darija, the words of home are here. One cat. Seven Arabics. Switch the dialect on any word, any time, and the whole library switches with you. Tap the cat and hear qitta in Fusha, utta in Egyptian, bsayne in Lebanese and mishsha in Moroccan Darija. Each dialect has its own word, which is why one textbook Arabic never sounds like home. Real photos. Real voices. Every card is a photograph, not clip-art. Every word is a recording of a native speaker of that dialect: no speech synthesizer, and never one voice imitating seven. Sixteen books, 300+ words Animals, More Animals, Colors, Numbers, Shapes, Fruits and Vegetables, Things That Go, Around the House, At the Table, In the Kitchen, In the Bathroom, In My Room, Nature, My Body, Clothes and the Arabic alphabet. Each book is a set of photo cards on one subject: a picture dictionary of daily Arabic words, from Arabic animal names to colors and numbers. Learn Arabic offline PopPond is an Arabic learning app that works offline. Every word and every dialect ships inside the app. In the car, on a plane or at the grandparents' house with no wifi, everything still plays. The Arabic alphabet with sound The alphabet book shows each Arabic letter with a photo and a native voice, so the Arabic letters become familiar shapes and sounds. No ads. No sign-up, no accounts, nothing that pops up in the middle of a book. Arabic for beginners The same books work for anyone joining an Arab family and for beginners learning Arabic from the beginning: see the photo, hear the word said by a native speaker, and switch to the dialect you need. Spoken Arabic the way each dialect says it, one word at a time. PopPond. The Arabic your family actually speaks. All Access Ten books are always included.
