Arabic

Arabic is the main language in the Middle East. Modern Standard Arabic is the Arabic-speaking world common language, which are directly related to classical Arabic. Knowledge of Arabic is alpha-omega, if you want to know more about culture, business etc. in the Middle East.

There is great attention to the communication section of the program that enables you to communicate competently orally and in writing in modern standard Arabic. At the same time you will gain knowledge of certain dialects that are used frequently in the Middle East. It could, for instance. be Egyptian.
