Arabic

Arabic is the official language of 26 countries across the Middle East and North Africa, a region sitting on 48% of the world's proven oil reserves and investing hundreds of billions in post-oil diversification. The Gulf states — UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar — are pouring money into tech, tourism, sports, and entertainment. Arabic speakers are in extreme shortage in Western governments, intelligence agencies, and multinational corporations. The U.S. State Department offers bonus pay for Arabic proficiency. Modern Standard Arabic connects you across the entire region.
