Hello! From a perspective of westerner who tried to learn Arabic language, I should say that such expansion is quite possible, but will be extremely hard for IMDb staff as it will require translating at least a few thousand common phrases and terms used, which should be done professionally in order not to have gibberish on pages. Also names should be translated professionally to avoid gibberish as well. Developing a version of IMDb in Arabic which will be as of great quality will took years to develop and there's no guarantee so far that this much Arabic people would love the experience.

As IMDb isn't available in any other languages than English, you're unlikely to see an Arabic language IMDb anytime soon. You can get Arabic movie titles, for titles which have had the Arabic title contributed, by choosing Arabic as the Title Display Country and Title Display Language in the Site General Settings, if it's of any help to you.

There is no doubt that idmb is one of the most famous websites in the world..it also supports many languages of the world..but I and other Arabic speakers are resentful for not being able to comment on our favorite movies in our language, why can't I express my feelings in my own language? Also, because the website interface is not available in our language, knowing that the number of Arabic speakers is more than 422 million people

Why is the Arabic language not supported in the comments or even the interface of the site?

*Note: Sorry for any mistakes, I use Google Translate

I suggest to make Arabic page and add list from IMDb for the top rated Arabic movies like these for top rated Indian movies, because there was many Arabic people in this site and like this site and I hope to add the Arabic language to this site

"Hello IMDb Team,

I would like to request that you translate your website into Arabic. Adding the Arabic language will help many users in the Arab world to better benefit from your website's content. I believe this update will be very useful and will increase the number of Arab users who can access your site more easily.

Thank you for your attention, and I hope this request will be implemented as soon as possible.
