Burj Al Arab is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, famed for its sail-shaped silhouette and opulent architecture. The name is Arabic, translating roughly to “Tower of the Arabs,” and is commonly pronounced with three distinct segments in English: BURJ (rock-like, with a stressed first syllable), AL (light, short), and ARAB (stress on the second syllable). Proper pronunciation respects Arabic phonemes and the hotel’s branding in an international context.
