Sandhill Scholars Expand Their Language Horizons
Ramzi Merabet, Leeds University, delivered an Arabic taster session to the scholars. Students began by discussing the benefits of learning Arabic, and were surprised to learn how widely spoken the language is. They then worked in pairs to recite basic greetings, such as ‘Assalamu alaikum’ ٱلسَّلَامُ عَلَيْكُمْ which means peace be with you. By the end, some brave students volunteered to go through the alphabet in front of the class. A big ‘Shukran’ شكراً to Ramzi for launching our first Scholars lecture of the academic year.
