RIYADH: A historical and intellectual journey awaits visitors to “Arabic Language: Twenty-Eight Letters of Light,” an exhibition in Riyadh that tells the story of one of humanity’s oldest languages.
Through its galleries and interactive displays, the exhibition brings the story of the “language of ḍād” out of books and dictionaries into an innovative, technology-driven experience.
The exhibition has opened at the headquarters of the King Salman Global Academy for Arabic Language in Riyadh. Aimed at academics, researchers, teachers, students, and Arabic-language enthusiasts, it offers visitors a creative and contemporary way to explore the language.
Its interactive stations allow visitors to explore a range of linguistic topics, engage with modern educational platforms, and participate in specialized training sessions designed to enhance Arabic learners’ skills, improve teaching methods, and present Arabic as a dynamic language capable of keeping pace with advances in knowledge.
