Arabic influence
Arabic influence refers to the significant contributions of Arabic culture, language, and science to various fields such as mathematics, astronomy, medicine, and literature. During the Islamic Golden Age (8th to 14th centuries), scholars translated and added to Greek and Roman knowledge, which later influenced the European Renaissance. Arabic numerals (0-9) replaced Roman numerals in Europe, and terms like "algebra" and "chemistry" stem from Arabic words. Additionally, artistic styles, architectural features, and philosophical ideas from Arabic scholars shaped modern thought and culture globally, highlighting an enduring impact on our scientific and intellectual heritage.
