My mom told me that the reason why there are dots and tachkil in our language not because of confusion. Arabs didn't have a single problem with that. It was for Non-arabs that had that confusion when learning Arabic. As for Arab borns they have no problem with their own language
The dots and strikes were added for non Arab Muslims so they don’t mistake the recitation. Any arabian can read the scriptures without dots by understanding the meaning of the sentence. More over the Quran was delivered by reciting not writing.
The shape of the letters, how they are arranged and what the letters forming the word are - help to differentiate between similar non dotted letters like (ت ب ث ح خ ج ع غ ف ق ص ض س ش ط ظ د ذ ر ز) I was able to do that as a kid when we first took the lesson about Abu alaswad alduo'ali so it shouldnt be hard
During the previous aggression on Gaza four years ago, social media platforms were banning Arabs from talking about the Palestine issue, mentioning it, or criticizing the occupation. They launched massive campaigns to close accounts. To circumvent this, users started writing in classical Arabic without dots to avoid detection and bans. Surprisingly, everyone was able to understand the text without dots without any problem.
@@JacobKuchkov Ah yes, Palestinians Christians and Muslims who didn't flee the Roman attacks after the Bar Kokhba (Bin Kawkab) rebellion are supposed to give up THEIR frigging ancestral land to outsiders? Yes, yes, AshkeNAZIs and other Jews effectively became outsiders after they had decided to flee away from their lands after the Roman attacks. The Bar Kokhba (Bin Kawkab) rebellion was for nothing.
@@hossammohamed5785 No no, mistakes are fine! I was happy that he had clearly paid attention to the makhaarij, especially the 'ayn and qaaf, which are often so hard for non-Arabs. It shows dedication ^v^
This video was AMAZING. I actually thought you had thousands of subscribers, but was surprised to find you have less than a hundred. Too underrated. This channel has a bright future ahead of it, I’m sure of it. PS: As an Arab, good job on your Arabic pronounciation. It was FLAWLESS!
The change back to pre-i3jām makes sense: Arabs could do without dots and vowel marks, but had to develop them for non-Arab converts to Islam. The Fremen are kind of isolated on Arrakis and nobody's particularly interested in their culture except for the sake of getting more spice until the Atreides get there. So Fremen can do with a simplified Arabic script. Although it was my understanding that they didn't actually speak Arabic except for some words. Was it Chakobsa or something else that they spoke? Fremen are also only partially inspired by Arab (or Berber - not the same at all) bedouins. The story draws on a book about the Muslim Daghestani (or another Muslim population in the Caucasus or around there) resistance against the Russians. Those are not Arabs, though they are Muslims. Nice video btw!
Daghestani people and others who are now part of Russia, also who were part of ussr their language alphabet was written in Arabic letters.. I think it was like that until 1930 when Russia changed it. Same like what's happening now to the uyghur their script is written in Arabic letters and China changes it currently.
@@TheTruth-ko9ovwhat are you on about? Have you even been to Xinjiang? Uyghurs still study/write in the Arabic alphabet (or more specifically the Iranian variant)
Hello! I just wanted to say, your video came up in y recommendations today, and while I have never studied Arabic, writings or culture, the enthusiasm you have in teaching here is infectious. Awesome video.
this is actually really thematic to the Dune universe. Shields made guns obsolete, so they devolved back to knives and swords. Human civilization spanned across such a large vastness of planets that they devolved back into feudalism to maintain order. It only makes sense that the language would devolve as well c:
There was this one comedic scene from a classic movie from Malaysia called Bujang Lapok. In it, the three protagonists went to school for reading. Since the movie was shot in the 60s, Malaysia used to use Arabic scriptures. So in that class, comedic hijinks occured when the teacher asked the students to read out the letters.
Honestly, a complete mistake on my part. You're right, it is 20,000 years into the future not 10,000. I've added it to the disclaimers section in the Google Doc in the description now, thanks for mentioning it here.
honestly makes sense since Dune seems to be sort of semi regressed civilization in postmodern / post AI future wont be surprised if they had to recreate aspects of language and have it be in a regressed state
Very nice, informative video about the elements of the Arabic language. Just a quick note. The Dune Encyclopaedia is not canon to the Dune books themselves (even though the author said it was fine, it didn't mean he approved every element of it and said that he might change a few things as he continued writing). It is interesting about the pre I'jam state of Chakobsa in it though. Congrats on how well this video has done! Well deserved.
Fremen is mainly Arabic yes but Dune also has other non-Arabic elements - Nezhoni scarf - Kwisatz Haderach etc that been said Fremen is still quite close to Arabic, even if they added a few sounds and loaned a few words, and well done on this video!
That's cos in the Dune universe many religions have grown beyond themselves, even merging with others That's why you get religions like the 'Zen-Sunni' - a form of Islam guided by Taoist principles
Also we already don't use that complicated system, we only use Tashkeel to remove ambiguity when a word could have two forms that fits the same context. Keep going btw lovely channel.
اهلا! As an Arab, I enjoyed this video a lot! I’ve heard that the old Arabic script was written without dots, but I never got a detailed explanation like this before. The Dune part was also very cool. I appreciate you have studied our language and love it, hope to see more videos like this in the future!
@HighlyEntropicMind brought me here. Top tier video man, I love seeing connections like that, and it was cool to learn about the history of the language. Right to the point too! I think the pacing is a liiitle fast, I had to turn the video down to 0.75x speed to absorb the section goong over the changes in the structure of the language over time.

hey! this was a really nice jab at the language system in dune although I wish the video didn't so abruptly haha, alas I'll be looking forward for more~ also as another commenter mentioned you're Arabic pronunciation is damn great, either you've worked really hard on it or your actually a native speaker lol
Thank you! I tried to keep it short and sweet but yes there is still so much more that could've been explored, hope you'll stick around. Also I'm honored, but no unfortunately I'm not an Arabic native speaker, I've just been learning the language for a long time.

Dude you know your shit, I grew up in Egypt and most of the Written Arabic grammar was so difficult, physics and maths seemed simple in comparison, I had nightmares about Arabic exams 😅, I can tell it took a lot of dedication to study Arabic let alone it’s linguistic history, kudos to you my friend .
According to sources, references, and dictionaries of the Arabic language, the number of words in the Arabic language is 12,302,912 words without repetition.
You earned a subscriber (current count 186 with me). If you keep it up with the funny and informative and unique style that you showed here, I am pretty sure you will reach 1k and 10k subs in no time
I remember when we were kids we used to give others the sentence "قيل قتل فيل قبل طلوع الفجر" without the idjem اعجام so we can test people inteligence somehow lol, though arabs still can understand the words without it giving context just like we understand without teshkil (vowels), though i think in still an easier sentence than the above lol
Lovely video! I didn't even watch Dune but I love hearing people talk about the arabic language (and they're usually more knowledgeable than me, even though it's my mother tongue - chalk it up to the Westernization of the modern world...) Also your pronunciation is SO GOOD!!
Yes! There are definitely so many people so much more qualified than me who have delved into this topic in way I could hardly comprehend myself, so I tried to find something a bit more lighthearted for everyone. Thank you for the kind words!
Arabic script is really nice, but it's a shame that both support for the characters in software overall and the variety of fonts available for it are still pretty poor to this day. The only thing helping arabic text is web frontends being more popular for all kinds of apps because browsers support it out-of-the-box better than native desktop apps, and I'm not sure if the font issue is an issue of discoverability or there aren't actually that many. Also, Dune's world building is pretty amazing and it does kind of hint at regression in many ways. I remember the appendix suggested that the original Qur'an (or something more original than other books) was still in the position of a rice-growing people living on Paul's planet
The support for Arabic characters is something I am personally super passionate about and yes it is such a tragedy! It becomes a large barrier of entry for so many to-be-learners of the language and even continues to trouble those who use Arabic regularly with issues like web-formatting or character recognition that latin-based writing systems take for granted! Much work needs to be done and I'm all for it.
Bro, i am an arab/berber from north africa. when i heard the girl "shani friends" talks about how paul would look handsome with fremen blue eye, i felt a bump in my chest,i found it so familiar. I had to repeat that so many times.
Your Arabic pronunciation is genuinely the best I have EVER heard from a non native. Some words are a little off but much tougher words were pronounced perfectly. I know it’s not the point of the video but I just wanted to say, if you expand your vocabulary you will absolutely sound native
This is a great point to make. As far as I've learned, Ad-Du'ali helped establish a standard for it in relation to the Qur'an. I might add this to the disclaimers section in the Google Doc. Thank you

As an Arab myself, I must admit I never knew the origin of اعجام. Love the way you present your content, it's dynamic and entertaining. Immediately subscribing! Also, I think some other people pointed it out but gotta say it again, your pronounciation was ON POINT!
The system was made so that non arabs can better understand Arabic. I'jam was found in many manuscripts around the Arabian Peninsula, the famous one being of the grave of King 'Umru Al Qays and another one of a priestess. The dots weren't necessary the same way in English you don't pronounce a captial letter differently from a small one. Arabs understood the script, contextually it made sense. I'jam was an attempt to standardize the Language
Shower thought I had after I watched this - will languages reach a stagnation in written simplification because so much of our communication is digital now?
What a brilliant piece of documentation. Its a nice treat for someone thats native language isnt arabic but can recite modern texts and yeah what you said about Dune’s Fremen Language, nice 👌
Other accounts saying that the Arabic script can be read even today without the markers makes sense too. Mst nglsh spkrs cn prbbly rd ths sntnc wtht th vwls.
Just to inform you, the oldest Arabic inscription is nearly 3000 years old and is found in Bayir, Jordan. It was written in a Canaanite script (Since there was no Arabic script at that time), and was a prayer that invoked the Gods of Ammon, Moab, and Edom, three Canaanite kingdoms in modern day Jordan. Ammon is Amman (Rabat Amman), Moab is directly east of the Dead Sea, and Edom is south of the Dead Sea, encompassing parts of Jordan and Palestine. That 4th Century CE Arabic inscription is one of the last evolutions that gave us the modern Arabic script. The language itself is far older than the 4th Century CE, dating back to the Iron Age.
Just a note... the Dune Encyclopedia is essentially just publish fan fic. Herbert got a kick out of it but he did not officially support or deny the claims. The in-universe explanation seems to be that the Dune Encyclopedia comes from even further in deep time and many ideas shifted and histories were misremembered. So... take it with a grain of salt.
My mom told me that the reason why there are dots and tachkil in our language not because of confusion. Arabs didn't have a single problem with that. It was for Non-arabs that had that confusion when learning Arabic. As for Arab borns they have no problem with their own language
That's right
of course, and the same issue applies today because harakat are still omitted in non-school texts
even most todays arabs can easily read and understand without neither dots nor tashkile
That's so kind of them.
@@RexoryByzaboo i wouldn't say that, since they established it during early islamic conquests as mentioned in the video

As an Arab myself, I must admit I never knew the origin of اعجام. Love the way you present your content, it's dynamic and entertaining. Immediately subscribing!
Also, I think some other people pointed it out but gotta say it again, your pronounciation was ON POINT!
This dude arabic pronounciation is really good
Arabic is a beautiful language I wish to learn Arab poets were one of the most respected in society
The system was made so that non arabs can better understand Arabic.
I'jam was found in many manuscripts around the Arabian Peninsula, the famous one being of the grave of King 'Umru Al Qays and another one of a priestess.
The dots weren't necessary the same way in English you don't pronounce a captial letter differently from a small one. Arabs understood the script, contextually it made sense.
I'jam was an attempt to standardize the Language
Shower thought I had after I watched this - will languages reach a stagnation in written simplification because so much of our communication is digital now?
Love your videos, hope you uplaod more
I dunno why but this is really underrated, SUBBED
that was light, fun and insightful. hope you make more videos about the Arabic language.
What a brilliant piece of documentation. Its a nice treat for someone thats native language isnt arabic but can recite modern texts
and yeah what you said about Dune’s Fremen Language, nice 👌
actually the dots were there at the prophet time but the dotless arabic was just dialect from iraq(qufa and basra)
Thomas Alexander channel is all about this.
Other accounts saying that the Arabic script can be read even today without the markers makes sense too.

Just to inform you, the oldest Arabic inscription is nearly 3000 years old and is found in Bayir, Jordan. It was written in a Canaanite script (Since there was no Arabic script at that time), and was a prayer that invoked the Gods of Ammon, Moab, and Edom, three Canaanite kingdoms in modern day Jordan. Ammon is Amman (Rabat Amman), Moab is directly east of the Dead Sea, and Edom is south of the Dead Sea, encompassing parts of Jordan and Palestine. That 4th Century CE Arabic inscription is one of the last evolutions that gave us the modern Arabic script. The language itself is far older than the 4th Century CE, dating back to the Iron Age.
Just a note... the Dune Encyclopedia is essentially just publish fan fic. Herbert got a kick out of it but he did not officially support or deny the claims. The in-universe explanation seems to be that the Dune Encyclopedia comes from even further in deep time and many ideas shifted and histories were misremembered. So... take it with a grain of salt.
Couldn't agree more, it's why this video was more of a "get a nice laugh out of it" rather than a super serious canon dive.
@ifoundacloud 😂
