Arabic interpretation services
Arabic by region — Egyptian, Levantine, Gulf, Iraqi, or Maghrebi.
Arabic at a glance
Arabic is a diglossic language — Modern Standard Arabic for formal settings, regional dialects for everyday speech. We match dialect to use case so a Yemeni asylum-seeker gets a Yemeni interpreter, not a Moroccan one.
Arabic is really a family of spoken dialects. Everyone learns Modern Standard Arabic at school, but nobody speaks it at home — and a Moroccan and an Iraqi can genuinely struggle to follow each other. We match interpreters by region: Egyptian, Levantine, Gulf, Iraqi, or Maghrebi.
Arabic has more than 420 million native speakers across 25+ countries. We cover the varieties listed here and can match a linguist to a specific region or community on request.
