Talk in Arabic review
A web-based dialect resource with native-speaker audio, transcripts, and video lessons.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Talk in Arabic is a web-based resource for learners who want to study spoken Arabic in a specific regional variety. It covers Egyptian, Levantine, Saudi, Iraqi, Sudanese, Moroccan, Tunisian, and Algerian Arabic, with a ten-module course for each dialect. Short lessons use natural recordings by native speakers and include written transcripts. Learners can follow a course in order or select topics, and the site also offers an Arabic-script reading and writing course. Its focus is spoken dialects rather than Modern Standard Arabic, so learners seeking that curriculum should look elsewhere.
The course materials extend beyond audio lessons: each dialect has a video library, and a verb explorer supports study of verbs. A community forum offers a place for learner discussion. The combination of dialect-specific lessons, transcripts, and video makes the product more suited to learners comparing or pursuing spoken varieties than to those looking for a single general Arabic course. It is available on the web and is described as a cloud service.
According to the vendor's pricing page, Monthly and Yearly plans provide Premium access, while Lifetime provides lifetime access for a one-time $197. The published description also says a free account includes a free Egyptian Arabic audiobook, but dialect courses, videos, and library content require paid membership; it does not describe a full unlimited free plan or trial. Pricing is account-wide, but the plan details do not specify whether each price covers one dialect or all dialects. A 30-day refund period is offered. Talk in Arabic is a fit for learners willing to pay for structured dialect resources; those prioritizing Modern Standard Arabic or a fully free course should consider alternatives.
