Arabic for UAE (15 Survival Phrases)
Learn essential Arabic phrases with audio and transliteration
Arabic phrases for the UAE — survival LITE
Phrase decks skip scene images: each row is Arabic script, transliteration, and audio for real travel and admin situations in the UAE context.
If you like the LITE flow, the full pack expands to 300 phrases — still Anki-first, not a course replacement.
Requires Anki app
Download free at ankiweb.net. Decks will not work without Anki — download .apkg and open in Anki (desktop or mobile).
