阿拉伯语音系 (Arabic phonology)是阿拉伯语 的语音系统 的描述。虽然许多语言有许多不同的方言,但当代阿拉伯语口语被更恰当地描述为变体的连续体 。[ 1] 本文主要讨论现代标准阿拉伯语 (MSA),这是整个阿拉伯语地区受过教育的人共同使用的标准阿拉伯语变体。现代标准阿拉伯语用于正式印刷媒体的书面形式,以及多种类型的新闻广播、演讲,以及正式声明中的口头形式。[ 2]
现代标准阿拉伯语语音在大多数的现代方言变体 中有28个辅音 音位 、以及6个元音 音位,或者8个或者10个元音。所有音素都在强调 (咽化 )辅音 、与非强调辅音之间形成对比。其中一些音素已在各种现代方言中合并,而新的音位则是通过借用,或音位的拆分来引入。"音素的长度质量"适用于辅音、以及元音。[ 3]
阿拉伯语辅音的主要方言 变体 围绕著六个辅音而展开;⟨ ج ⟩ , ⟨ ق ⟩ , ⟨ ث ⟩ , ⟨ ذ ⟩ , ⟨ ض ⟩ 与 ⟨ ظ ⟩ :
