Here we are moving on to the next letter in the
Arabic Alphabet. At Kaleela, we keep trying to present the Arabic language in
detail so you understand it thoroughly. In this blog, we will start with a new
letter in the Arabic alphabet: daal in the Arabic language. daal is equivalent
to the letter D in English. daa is easy to pronounce and detect because it’s
identical to the English D. Also, the letter daal only functions as a consonant
letter. This blog will have all you need to understand the letter daal.
Before we start with the shapes of the letter daal,
we need to demonstrate an important note that states that the letter daal can only
be connected from the right side. As shown below in the table, some Arabic
letters can only be connected from the right side (1st group). The
second group (2nd group) shows letters that can be connected from
both sides.

daal falls in the first group, daa
connects itself from the right side only. So, let us get to know the letter daal
and give some Arabic letter words after the video.
As shown in the video, this is the shape of the letter daal standing alone. The
form of the letter daal changes depending on where it appears in a word. So, we
can have it either at the beginning of the word (initial), middle of the word
(medial), or ending of the word (final). But firstly, notice that the letter daal
is easy to write and it looks like a triangle without the left line and is
written with a single stroke if it is standing alone and it looks like this “د.” As in: (دب)
which means Bear. Now, let us get to know the different shapes of the
letter daal and give some Arabic words with daal.
