Guide

How to read this lesson.

A sukun (a small circle) means the letter has no vowel. Join it to the letter before: أَبْ is ab.

Work through the grid from right to left, row by row, saying each cell aloud. When you can read a cell without looking at the transliteration, mark it as known. Repeat the lesson the next day before moving on.
