The Impact of Cartoons on the Correct Pronunciation of Standard Arabic among Pupils

Abstract

Language is the greatest human achievement on earth. Without language, no human civilization would have existed, nor would any form of urban development have emerged. Language relies more on the sense of hearing than on sight. This importance of hearing has led universities around the world to allow visually impaired students to study in faculties that teach the Arabic language. “Hearing is stronger than other senses and more beneficial to humans than sight.”

This research addresses the use of cartoons, as they are one of the most important entertainment media enjoyed by pupils at home. They occupy many hours of their day, and the study proposes turning them into one of the tools for teaching the pronunciation of Standard Arabic, especially since they are accessible to all pupils.
