English diphthongs Diphthongs are a combination of two vowel sounds, which take some duration of time of a single long vowel. While we produce diphthongs, the tongue moves from one vocalic position to another. English has eight diphthongs. They are divided into two types; centering and closing diphthongs:

-Centering diphthongs They end with a glide towards the central vowel /ə/: -/ ɪ ə/ The glide begins with a tongue position that is taken for /I/ and moves in the direction of /ə/. It is found in the words like "beer, fear".

Centering dephthongs -/ ʊ ə/ It glides from a tongue position that is used for / ʊ / toward the more open type /ə/. It appears in the words "sure, tour".

Centering dephthongs -/ eə/ Its glide begins in the half – open front position and moves in the direction of more open variety of /ə/. For example, "chair, stare".

- closing diphthongs They end with a glide towards /i/ or towards / ʊ /: -/ei/ The glide begins at a point behind the front open position and moves in direction of the position of / i/. We find it in the words "say, weigh".

Closing dephthongs -/ ɔɪ / The glide begins with tongue position that is for / ɔ / and moves in the direction of /i/, as in "toy, enjoy".

Closing dephthongs -/ai/ The glide begins at a point slightly behind the front open position, and moves in the direction of the position associated with /i/. It occurs in words such as "high, buy".

Closing dephthongs -/ə ʊ / Its glide begins at a central position of /ə/ and moves in the direction of the / ʊ /. It appears in the words "go, hello".

Closing dephthongs -/a ʊ / The glide starts at a point between the back and front open position, and moves in the direction of the / ʊ /. As in "house, now, found".

Arabic diphthongs A diphthong in Arabic is a combination of a vowel and consonant (Masluh, 1980). Arabic has two diphthongs. They are: -/aw/ "أو" The glide begins from the vowels /a/ to the consonant /w/. As in / nawm / "sleep" نوم. -/ay/ أي"" The glide begins from the vowel /a/ to the consonant /y/. It is available in the word /bayt/بيت "house".

Contrast English and Arabic vowel systems highlight a number of differences. Firstly, it is found that vowels in English are more particular than Arabic vowels, that is, English work with phonemic vowel quality. On the other hand, Arabic vowels are more allophonic. Secondly, there are some English vowels that do not exist in Arabic, like /e, ɔː, ɒ, ɜː, ə, ɑː /. Thirdly, English vowels are affected by consonants following them, while Arabic vowels are not.
