There are many excellent online sites along with a few nice downloadable programs. Some of my favorite sites:
http://i-cias.com/babel/arabic/
http://www.arab2.com/learn-arabic/
a very good purchased course is BYKI. Low cost for what you get with it.
The free version is helpful. The full version is very good. Costs about 60 dollars

When I was in the military, I was initially assigned to North Africa. I was put in a crash language course and learned sufficient skills to read and carry on sensible conversations in less then 3 weeks. That was a total submersion teaching method that the military uses. One problem with that type of tearning is there is very little long term retention.
Now to learn and retain proper Arabic, you should think of that in terms of several years.
To become truly proficient in Qur'anic Arabic is a life long endeavor

I am not sure but over here in canada there are few schools that teach Quranic arabic in 6 months or a year to speak, read, and write. You just have to be willing to learn atleast spend 30 hours a week trying to learn.

It is possible to learn good conversational Arabic online in 3 or 4 months following the links that were posted in this thread.
I really have difficulty in understanding how a person can learn Qur'anic Arabic in just 6 months. To read and understand it yes, but not to recite it. I can not see how a person could read it aloud with tajweed without a long time studying voice lessons. That is like saying an Opera singer can learn to sing a classical opera in 6 months

For some reason right now with the paid programs I see, the prices for Arabic language courses are much higher then for any other language. I doubt if it because of the complexity of the language as even the Chinese and Japanese courses are much lower cost and both have a more complex writing system.

I've chacked the webpage fatwa-onlin.com and I can recomend it to everyone. Arabic is the 5th language that I'm learning, so I know a lot of language books. These are realy very good, if the learner has somebody, who can help in the pronunciation and sometimes in the grammar.
Thank you for your help:)
Amena
