Learn Arabic (Modern Standard): أين أنت الآن؟

In Arabic, the pronoun for "you" is أنتَ (anta) for a male and أنتِ (anti) for a female. Because Arabic is usually written without the short vowel marks at the ends of words, both are spelled exactly the same way: أنت. You have to rely on context and who you are talking to in order to pronounce it correctly!

Why is there no word for "are" in this sentence?

In Arabic, sentences in the present tense that use "am", "is", or "are" don't actually use a verb. You simply place the subject (like the pronoun أنت) and the rest of the information side by side. Literally, this sentence translates to "Where you now?".

What is the squiggly line on top of the word الآن (now)?

That symbol is called a madda. It sits on top of the letter alif and tells you to make a long, stretched out "aa" sound. So الآن is pronounced "al-aan". It is actually a combination of a glottal stop (a catch in the throat) and a long alif, written together as a shortcut.

Does the word order change if I ask about someone else, like "Where is he?"

The structure stays exactly the same! You just swap the independent pronoun. To ask "Where is he now?", you simply replace أنت (you) with هو (he), making it أين هو الآن؟. The question word أين always comes first.
