Learn Arabic for Culture: Even if you are not job seeking, there are a multitude of Arabic cultural events that take place in Edinburgh every year, giving you the opportunity to learn more about the Middle East. The Edinburgh International Festival of Middle Eastern Spirituality and Peace (MESP) took place in March 2019 and makes an appearance every two or three years in the city. The MESP offers a fascinating insight into the Middle Eastern culture, religion, philosophy, and art. Speaking of arts, the National Museums Scotland’s collection of over 5,000 Islamic art pieces can also give you a fast-track introduction into the culture before you begin taking your Arabic lessons in Edinburgh. Additionally, nothing will give you a finer understanding of Arabic tastes than visiting one of the city’s popular Middle Eastern eateries. The Beirut Restaurant on Nicolson Square, for example, serves the most delicious Lebanese cuisine. You can also check out the popular Moroccan dishes at Souq on South Clerk Street where you can sample delicious cuisine while absorbing the atmosphere and hearing Arabic spoken in its native tongue, which can only help you when learning the language.
Learn Arabic for Social: If you are a Muslim in the city or are looking to meet new people to learn more about the Arabic language through the eyes of religion, there are 21 mosques in Edinburgh where Arabic is predominantly spoken, which is a fantastic grounding into the language if you are a newcomer. If you are female and are interested in learning Arabic, the Muslim Women’s Association of Edinburgh also hosts weekly events where you can meet new people and learn some basic Arabic.
