Did you See the Supermoon? Posted by on Nov 15, 2016 in Arabic Language

Marhaba! Did you take a moment yesterday to look at the Supermoon? People around the globe have been waiting to see the Supermoon (القمرالعملاق) for many years. Well, I caught small glimpses of it, because it was very foggy where I live. But I hope you were in a place where the weather conditions were better. I woke up to hundreds of photos by my friends on different social media channels. And almost all news outlets are talking about the Supermoon.

You all know by now that I want you Arabic lovers to discuss the most recent and trendiest developments in the world in Arabic. For this purpose and other educational reasons, I am sharing a news story about the Supermoon in the form of a listening comprehension exercise from Al Arabiya. Please, dear Arabic lovers, I want you all to always work on perfecting your listening skills. As always, I have some questions for you to answer. Good luck! Share your thoughts on the news story on this page and/or via our Twitter/Facebook pages. Also, if you have taken any photos of the Supermoon, please do share them via our social media channels.

About the Author: jesa

Salam everyone! Born as an American to two originally Arab parents, I have been raised and have spent most of my life in Beirut, Lebanon. I have lived my good times and my bad times in Beirut. I was but a young child when I had to learn to share my toys and food with others as we hid from bombs and fighting during the Lebanese Civil War. I feel my connection to Arabic as both a language and culture is severing and so it is with you, my readers and fellow Arabic lovers, and through you that I wish to reestablish this connection by creating one for you.
