الملخص الإنجليزي

This study aimed at investigating the difficulties of teaching Arabic to speakers of other languages in Jordan .The study attempted to answer the following questions (i) what are the attitudes of the non-native learners toward learning Arabic culture? (ii) what are the difficulties that the nonnative learners face in learning Arabic in Jordan ? (iii) what are the factors that cause these difficulties ? (iv) what solutions can be offered to solve these difficulties ? To achieve the goals of the study ,the researcher used two instruments, namely, students' questionnaire and informal interviews with teachers of Arabic .The sample included 43 students enrolled at Ali Baba International Center ,Qasid Arabic Institute and Modern Arabic Language International Center ( MALIC).

The sample also consisted of ten teachers who teach Arabic to speakers of other languages at the same centers.

Results of the study showed that the non-native learners of Arabic have positive attitudes towards Arabic culture.

Results also revealed that the non-native learners of Arabic encountered numerous linguistic difficulties such as ,using Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) with the native speakers of Arabic in Jordan ,comprehending Jordanian colloquial Arabic and reading unpunctuated words .Moreover, the study unveiled the factors that caused these difficulties such as the existence of different varieties of Arabic, the linguistic differences between Arabic and the students' language in addition to the large number of morphological and syntactic restrictions in Arabic.

Finally, different solutions were suggested to overcome these difficulties such as ,integrating Standard Arabic with colloquial Arabic and establishing higher educational institutions where Arabic is taught and where teacher training takes place .
