> Arabic has many unusual laws and many dialects which are very or little hard to understand depending on where you are from in the Arab-Speaking world. For example, it would extremely hard for a Lebanese to understand the Morrocan dialect of arabic, due to the geographic location of Lebanon being very far from Morroco. Besides that, Lebanese Dialect of arabic borrows many foreign words from languages you wouldnt even believe like English and French.

> Arabic has 28 alphabet and does not have sounds like “G” and “P” and has letters that are very hard to pronounce for an average person without LOTS of practice, such as "ض"، "ق"، "غ"، "ع"، "خ"، "ح"،"ذ"،"ط" and "ظ" . Which are all absent in English. The Arabic writng system is different than english. In English , all letters are in one form no matter there position in a word. However, in Arabic, each letter has a different form depending on where it is in a word.
> For example: “ل" (like all letters) has 4 forms: Beginning of word, middle (between 2 letters) and ending.
> Also, it is written from right to left in a sticked form and some letters contradict the 4 form rule.

Well, I only can read Arabic. Arabic is kind of hard if you don't understand it. But I agree that the Arabic language has different dialects making it harder to speak with someone in Arabic. But if you have learn things in Arabic like how to read, verbs and stuff, it will be pretty easy. As long as there's those lines on top or the bottom of the letters for me to read. If there aren't any, it will be almost impossible for me to read it.
