Marhaba! Building on previous posts that discussed all 50 U.S. states, 17 Middle East countries, and 15 South American countries and territories in Arabic, today I want to teach you how to pronounce the name of every African country and dependent territory in Arabic. I have translated and transliterated the country names so that you can use them when writing and/or speaking Arabic. As you know, Africa is a large continent with over 60 sovereign states and dependent territories. As a result, today, I will provide you with the first 20 African countries and territories. In the coming weeks, I will provide you with rest. I will begin listing them alphabetically. If you are from Africa, please tell me where you from in the comments section (below this post) in the following format: ‘I am from …’ If you are not from Africa and want to visit one of these countries in the near future, post a comment following this format ‘I want to visit…’ Please provide your answers in Arabic. Let’s begin practicing. Here are two examples:

I am from Kenya.
أنا من كينيا
Ana min Kin-ya

I want to visit Nigeria
أريد أن أزور نيجيريا
U-rid an a-zur Nay-ji-ria

For now take care and stay tuned for upcoming posts!
Happy Learning!
Have a nice day!!
