UAE makes full-on effort to preserve Arabic

In the UAE, love for Arabic is alive and well, and not just among those who are Arabs. Those who do not speak the language have also taken a liking to it. In this respect, it is noteworthy that the Arabic Language Academy in Sharjah (ALA)'s Arabic Language Centre is doing a wonderful job of promoting the language among non-native speakers from across the world.

Through concerted efforts to promote Arabic among non-Arabs, the Academy seeks to position Arabic as a global language and emphasise its instrumental role in furthering the emirate's cultural project.

Since its inception in 2018, the Arabic Language Centre has celebrated the graduation of more than 100 students from countries like the Philippines, India, Pakistan, the UK including Scotland and England, the US, Germany, Mauritius, China, Russia, Ukraine, Bulgaria, Iran, and South
