Put your Arabic reading skills to the ultimate test with the Arabic Crossword! Read each clue written in Arabic, then type the English translation into the crossword grid. Each puzzle contains 8 interlocking words — running across and down — with clues covering Animals, Food, Colors, Body Parts, Family and more. Shared letters between crossing words act as built-in hints. The ideal challenge for intermediate-to-advanced Arabic learners!
Click a numbered square in the grid to select a clue. Read the Arabic word in the clue panel and type its English translation into the highlighted cells — across or down as indicated. Fill all squares then click Check to score. Correct answers turn green; wrong answers turn red.
Crossword clues span everyday Arabic vocabulary: Animals — قطة cat, كلب dog, أسد lion; Food — خبز bread, تفاح apple; Body — رأس head, يد hand; Colors — أحمر red, أزرق blue; Family — أم mother, أب father. Multiple themed puzzles let you focus on different vocab sets.
Each word runs either Across (horizontal) or Down (vertical). Where words intersect, the shared letter must be correct for both — a wrong shared letter signals one answer needs revisiting. This crossing-letter constraint is the classic crossword challenge that makes you think carefully.
Start with the shortest words — they have fewer possible answers and fill crossing squares that help with longer ones. If you know a shared letter from another word, use it to narrow options. Read Arabic clues carefully: short words like يد (hand) vs رأس (head) are very different lengths in English.
