Arabic is the official language in Dubai. As a result, it is recommended that visitors know a little Arabic throughout their journey to Dubai. English, Hindi, Persian, Urdu, and Malay are among the other foreign languages spoken in the UAE, in addition to Arabic. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a federation comprising seven emirates located along the Persian Gulf, bordered by Saudi Arabia and Oman. With a total population of approximately 10 million, only about one million are Emirati citizens. Expatriates make up over 84% of the population, reflecting the UAE&#8217;s diverse and international community.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
