I genuinely don't know how to make Dua.

The basics were never taught to me properly, so I feel kind of lost. I don’t really know what to say at the beginning of a dua or how to end it.

I also don’t understand Arabic, which makes it even more confusing. For example, when I go to a Moroccan mosque they don’t raise their hand like they do in a South-Asian mosque?

So yeah, I’m just not really sure what’s being said at the beginning and end of the dua, or what the right way is?

Please don't judge me, but I wasn't raised much with Islam only the basics and that's it.
