Arabic Language and Saudi Culture Day in Budapest
The Royal Embassy of Saudi Arabia and the Centre for Foreign Language Education and Research of Corvinus University organized the Arabic Language and Saudi Culture Day to celebrate World Arabic Language Day at the University.
Last week, on 12 December, Mr. Ahmed Yahya AlDagreer the Chargé d’Affaires of the Royal Embassy and Dr. József Erdei the Director of the Centre for Foreign Language Education and Research delivered the opening speeches, and we had the honour to listen to the lecture of H.E. Mr. Abdelkarim Hermi the Ambassador of the Republic of Tunisia about the Arabic civilisation.
Dr. Kinga Dévényi the Associate professor was giving a fascinating lecture titled Arabic language as the vehicle of civilisation and Ms. Eszter Al-Akrad organised an introductory Arabic language class with student participation.
During the event, the Embassy set up a Saudi tent where some traditional objects of Saudi craftsmanship were exhibited and where the students had the opportunity to experience Saudi hospitality by tasting Saudi coffee and snacks. The Embassy also promoted the “Study in Saudi” programme, which offers international students the opportunity to apply for Saudi scholarships.
There were many activities for the students prepared by Dr. Kinga Dévényi like taking part in the KAHOOT Quiz (Fun facts about the Arabic language), participating in an essay contest and making experience about the Arabic calligraphy and the henna art presented by Arabic artists.
It was a special and unique occasion to understand and experience the diversity and richness of Saudi Culture and the significance of the Arabic language.
