The main language that is used in Jordan is Arabic. Arabic is one of the most strongest languages in the world. It is considered one of the tough languages to learn. Moslem people all around the world try to learn Arabic and they feel very proud if they understand it because it is the language of the Holly book of the Moslem people which is the Qur'an.

There are many dialects in Jordan. Because of the mixture of the people in Jordan, Jordanian people are able to determine the part of the country that the person is coming from when he/she speaks in a certain Dialect.

When I talk about dialects I do not mean that it is completely different from the main language which is Arabic. It is that certain letters are pronounced differently by certain class of people.

Thank you for stopping by, I hope you have enjoyed your journey.
