Japanese and Arabic Language
Although Japanese and Arabic languages ranked as top ten languages used in the web in 2011, there are significant differences in the number of internet users and the percentage of growth between Arabic and Japanese language. (www.internetworldstats.com/stats7.htm). This essay compares the ratio between Japanese and Arabic language in the Internet and then discusses the reasons for this differences.

Although Arabic population was higher than Japanese by over than 200 million in 2011, statistics shows that Japanese is the fourth most used language on the internet, with almost 99 million users, whereas Arabic is the seventh, with about 65 million users by 2011. There is a considerable gap in the number of internet users between Japanese and Arabic languages probably because the spread of the Internet in the Arab world is very slow which made the exchange of information for Arabic language in the web is a difficult process and very limited in some poor Arabic countries. While Japan's telecommunication system and infrastructure is a very advanced and strong which encourage inhabitants to use the internet and transfer information in Japanese language. Also the difficulties that face Arabic sites and the reasons for the lack of a spread on the web compared to Japanese sites because of the abundance of programs that support Japanese language.

In the last eleven years, the growth of the internet in Arabic language is considerable higher than Japanese, that is to say, the number of Arabic speaking internet users has grown 2.501.2 % whereas Japanese internet users has 110.7 %. The demand for the internet has significantly increased in Arabic countries because Arabic countries have internet for short time compare with long period of time in Japan. Also Arabic governments have recently started to invest projects which support new generations of internet connection such as fourth generation "4G" technology and optical fiber communication
