The Arabic Guide on Must Know Words about the Oscars Posted by jesa on Feb 26, 2017 in Arabic Language, Culture
Marhaba! My dear Arabic lovers, you all know by now that my wife and I love watching movies and the annual ceremony awards for different categories. In earlier posts, I have raised my frustrations about the selection process for movies and why some actors, short films, or documentaries are excluded from the competition. Tonight, millions of people around the globe will be watching the 89th Annual Academy Awards or also know as the Oscars ceremony to celebrate some of the best artistic work in film-making in the previous year. This is ultimately the biggest night in the film industry and I wanted to provide you all dear Arabic lovers with an Arabic guide to navigate the Oscars.

Similar to previous posts, this is a fun, interesting, and beneficial way to learn about the most hot and recent developments in Arabic. I have translated all the categories in the ceremony tonight to Arabic. I have also transliterated them to help you pronounce them correctly. In the next few days, I will re-post the Arabic Guide on the Oscars and add the winners in every category. Share your thoughts on the Oscars/Academy Awards on this page and/or via our Twitter/Facebook pages.
For now take care and stay tuned for upcoming posts!
Happy Learning!
Have a nice day!!
نهاركم سعيد

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.
