I tried learning Arabic once, because it's such a beatiful language. I wasn't very good at it, but i understand a bit of how it can be such an artistic language.
I really liked listening to the call to prayers they play through the cities, although the first time they played aloud, I was very worried at what sounded like Divine Revelation ridinog through the alleyways while I was walking around, like some Gabriel trumpet s*** breaking the city apart until I realized it was just the call to prayer.
It was this loud rumbling "aaaaaaaaaaaaAaAaAaAAaAAAAAAAA" to begin saying "Allah" and I was very confused and worried for the drawn out 20 seconds or so it took to complete the first syllable.
