Mabuhay sa inyo! In this lesson, you will learn the sounds of Moroccan Arabic and basic pronunciation rules. As a beginner, it is essential to master the sounds of the language to be able to communicate effectively. So, let's get started!
Consonants[baguhin | baguhin ang batayan]
Moroccan Arabic has 33 consonants, and some of them may be challenging for non-native speakers. Here are some of the consonants you will encounter:
Moroccan Arabic | Pronunciation | Tagalog |
---|---|---|
ك | /k/ | k |
ق | /q/ | k |
ص | /sˤ/ | s |
ض | /dˤ/ | d |
ط | /tˤ/ | t |
ع | /ʕ/ | ' |
ح | /ħ/ | h |
ج | /d͡ʒ/ | j |
ش | /ʃ/ | sh |
خ | /x/ | kh |
As you can see, some letters are not present in the Tagalog language, so it may take some time to get used to them. Practice is the key to master the sounds, so don't worry if you struggle at first.
Vowels[baguhin | baguhin ang batayan]
Moroccan Arabic has 6 vowels: /a/, /i/, /u/, /e/, /o/, and /ə/. Vowels can be short or long, and the length can change the meaning of a word. For example, "bghit" means "I want," but "bghitii" means "I loved."
Here are some examples of vowels in Moroccan Arabic:
Moroccan Arabic | Pronunciation | Tagalog |
---|---|---|
رَجُلْ | /raʒul/ | lalaki |
حَلْوَة | /ħalwa/ | matamis |
مَنْشُور | /manʃur/ | nakalathala |
You will notice that vowels are pronounced differently from Tagalog, but with practice, you will be able to differentiate them.
Basic Pronunciation Rules[baguhin | baguhin ang batayan]
1. The emphasis in Moroccan Arabic is on the last syllable. For example, "shukran" is pronounced "shuk-RAN."
2. The letter "r" is pronounced differently depending on its position in a word. At the beginning or in the middle of a word, it is pronounced like the Spanish "rr". At the end of a word, it is pronounced like the French "r."
3. The letter "q" is pronounced like the English "k," but it is pronounced in the back of the throat.
4. The letter "h" is pronounced strongly in Moroccan Arabic.
5. The letter "gh" is pronounced as a guttural "g" in "get."
