Every word derived from another word, such a (كتب كتاب مكتوب كاتب مكتبة ....), has different meanings. This means that the Arabic language has at least 1,000,000 original words, and the rest are roots of the word. If we consider the variation in roots and meanings, this equals at least 6,000,000 words, each having a distinct meaning. As for the example he presented, it does not apply because the words, despite their grammatical differences, convey the same concept

What ur saying actually means that the number of Arabic words is way way way more than 12 million. I mean, come to think of it, if there are supposedly 12 million possible roots, and each can generate a number of words, we end up with a gigantic number of words.

I really don't understand this obsession with Arabic being the hardest language. it's probably not and it doesn't matter

Truth 🇮🇶 :
21 million roots = at least 200,000,000 words. So yes, even if 10% (2 million root words) you get 20+ millions.

russian doesnt have 220000 words,how it said in the meme at the start,it has much more because all verbs have 20 diferent variants for gender, number time etc. so i absolutely agree with your take, that we cant just, count words and compare the number of words in languages

Zyad Ahmed :
Real Arabic dictionaries have about 80,000 roots. The difference is in how we count: English dictionaries count words like (write, writer, writing, book, library) as separate words. But in Arabic, all of these come from just ONE root (K-T-B).If we counted Arabic words the same way English does, breaking down those 80k roots into all their actual nouns and verbs, Arabic would easily have over 1.5 to 2 million words. English has more dictionary entries today, but Arabic is way deeper when you look at how words are actually born

لكنك مخطىء يوجد عدة كلمات لا تستخدم فعل "كتب" للاشتقاق يمكن ببساطة تجد "خط بدل كتب" او "مؤلف بدل كاتب" او "مجلد بدل كتاب" لذلك العربية لن تنحصر في لفض واحد وبكل سهولة يمكن ان تصل لـ 5 مليون كلمة
