“In the biggest languages, the voices sound nearly human.”

“…an impressive natural-like array of voices and great customer support.”
Review on Capterra , 27 September 2022
Emirati Arabic is the speech of Emirati families from Abu Dhabi to Ras Al Khaimah. It greets with شحالك (how are you) and negates with مب, where Standard Arabic says كيف حالك and ليس. Choose it when a brand or a government service wants to sound local and personal. For a message to every Arab resident of the UAE, Standard Arabic reaches further.
The dialect is not uniform. Abu Dhabi and Al Ain lean towards Bedouin speech, Dubai and Sharjah carry more coastal trading words, and the northern emirates differ again. Write for one of them, or keep the wording general. Spellings change from writer to writer, so preview every dialect word and save a stubborn one in the pronunciation dictionary.
Seasonal scripts follow a local calendar: Eid Al Etihad on 2 December, the Liwa date festival in summer and the Dubai Shopping Festival in winter. For a dialogue between two Emiratis, give each speaker a different voice and a distinct opening, one with شحالك and the other with هلا والله.

Preview the line first. If a number, date or abbreviation comes out wrong, write it the way it should be spoken, or add it to the pronunciation dictionary, which is on every plan. One entry fixes that word across the whole project.
It is one of the Gulf dialects, and Kuwaitis, Qataris and Omanis follow it easily. Its own markers include شحالك and مب, and Emiratis notice when a script borrows another country's words. For Emirati listeners, write Emirati forms; for the whole Gulf, use Standard Arabic.
Use the forms on Emirati road signs: أبوظبي as one word, دبي, الشارقة and الفجيرة. Keep the article on names that carry it, such as العين, and preview each one, because a missing article changes how the voice reads the name.
