Arabic Adventure: Location Prepositions

In Arabic, the prepositions for location come after the noun, not before like in English. For example, ‘on the table’ is على الطاولة (ala attawila), with ‘on’ (على) following ‘table’ (الطاولة). This is a crucial rule to master for describing locations accurately!
