I think the person you spoke about was literally translating words in his brain. Am I right? My mother was doing the same thing when she first was learning English but luckily I was there to make people understand what she truly meant to say in English ❤
I know multiple languages and fall back on this when I'm flustered not too infrequently, considering I mostly just speak English and am exceedingly fluent.

Yes, "مع السلامة Ma as salaamah", with safety, is the common goodbye in the Arab world. Spanish was heavily influenced by Arabic, so the connection is still there.

after the quran which is the perfect book in all of arabic literature, it's impossible to say that anyone has mastered arabic after it, because no one can write as perfectly. but sure, if you tried really hard you can learn more vocabs, maybe enough that you understand old books. and actually there is no need to memorize vocabulary when you can just check them in a dictionary. and by modern day arabs standards you would be fluent. because we really don't know more words than what was mentioned in modern books, the quran, and cartoons. because it's hard to spend time reading old books if you're surrounded by people who say they hate arabic and close their ears in class, and when you can't afford to buy books, and the online free books are in pdfs of low quality scanned texts. that was what hindered my growth in the arabic language as an arab.
so if you aim to master enough grammatical rules to get you through an essay or a conversation, that's not so difficult. and if you aim to learn more words, try reading more and memorize words. if you wanna master the arabic language, you can never do that, by the arbitrary guage i told you about earlier.
“Your words are honey on my heart” is possibly the sweetest, kindest thing I’ve ever heard.
I've never seen a video like this before but it is oddly helpful! Thank you for taking your time to post again. Jazakallah Khair
Must be an interesting language...you delivered this so well❤
I love how poetic it is! Even the ones that don’t make sense are beautifully silly
Some of that sounds similar to southerners with a heavy religious upbringing.
"Bless your heart" lol
This is such a gift! I learned Spanish in my 40’s and always explain that the syntax is similar to Shakespearean. This beautiful video shows how peace is upon them. I wonder if men speak differently to each other and to their beloved women (mothers wives sister and children). More please!😊
Men are the same. They call each other Darling and Boss.
Way different 😂
Temarc! The river Temarc in winter. Darmok and Jalad. At Tanagra. Darmok and Jalad on the ocean. The beast at Tanagra. Uzani, his army. Shaka when the walls fell.
His arms wide!
@@thejawajedi87 Temba, at rest.
Wow it's all praises to God and his goodness..Thank you so much😊😊😊
Amen 🙏🏼
That's awesome! I love using direct Latin translations:
• "please" --> "I will love you" (nothing like a little underhanded manipulation 😂)
• "I'm on my way" --> "I'm going right now but really in the future" (or if you're Southern "I'm fixing to leave")
• "Go to hell!" --> "Go down into the bad affair"
😂 that's interesting i love this
We say "with safety" in spanish too when saying goodbye. We say "con cuidado!"
Yes, "مع السلامة Ma as salaamah", with safety, is the common goodbye in the Arab world. Spanish was heavily influenced by Arabic, so the connection is still there.
English 176000 words.. Arabic 12 million words
This is why I love Arabic and the Quran, this just makes me appreciate and understand why Allah revealed the Quran in an Arabic Tongue, most blessed language! Jazakallah sister! 😀
"Honey on the heart", " popped my liver ". Dude. Wats going on. Feels like we're gonna have food after.
Sneeze..... May God have mercy on you.
100% going to make this my default response.
Great video! I think I need to learn Arabic. You have some really interesting phrases.
There are so many colorful sayings or proverbs in Arabic. Though totally different, I also love Chinese Chengyu (4-character idioms).
What arabs think when they speak in English: This video
What arabs actually say: ZE BEBSI IS VERY GOOD WITH ZA SHAWARMA MY FRIEND!
It is called a Doner, Shawarma is a fake.
Hmm Shelby’s fan much?
@@justaemptymallWhat does that even mean? How is Shawarma _"fake?"_
I mean, you're not wrong 🤣
I understood none of that even though it was all in English. XD
It’s hard to believe that these are the words exchanged when two Arab men (half) scream at each other for minutes outside the local store
You would be shocked 😂😂
“My love”
“You honored us”
“No the honor is to us”
“May god keep you”
“May your hands be safe”
“Health and joy on your heart”
“My love”
“My love”
“We will see you on goodness”
“May you wake up in the morning on goodness”
“And you are from the people of goodness”
“With safety 👋🏻”
“With saftey 👋🏻”
All while “half” shouting for some reason 😂😂😂😂
They were roommates
"A monkey is, in his mother's eye, a deer". I love this! I think there is an equivalent to that expression in every language.
You are soooo pretty and your voice is so soothing.
😂❤عجبتني الفكرة اوي 😂 ههههههه
This video is getting gradually confusing. 😄
Thanks for the funny insight.
This was hilarious 😂 Now do one with Arabic swear words. I heard they're insanely long and complicated.
so beautiful, on every level. thank you!
"You popped my liver." I might have to use that one.
the liver takes care of toxins lmao
It’s a negative phrase.
It means you drove me nuts, or annoyed me 😂
Just one of the reasons its such a hard language for us to learn!! But beautiful
Americans will never use the word God in such a way, they are too far from God for that. Nevertheless, what a beautiful way of showing the arab way of talking to non-arab talking people!!
@@Tradah-yr1gt they are so godless they use for any trivial thing
Old Mex-American checking in. This was very cool. Once you wrap your brain around how Syntax is used in different languages to say the same thing this was nice! 👌
This is so charming.
May I comment on your perfect eye liner? Wow!
Absolutely beautiful ❤️ I love poetic languages
Pashto is the same way. I believe that all languages are like this besides English lol. Don't quote me. 😂
"May god fix your mind"😂 in the american south we say "bless your heart" and it means the same
"May God have mercy on you" is so bad ass.
I'm gonna say "May God have mercy on you" whenever someone sneezes cause "Bless you" is just not enough now
Well, mercy is a blessing at the end of the day.
You should hear how intense the insults are.
Our Arab friends bringing poetry to the English language lol
haahhaaha... in my language we say "you are going on my liver" LOLL when someone is irritating you
If someone spoke to me this politely I would think they were being sarcastic.
You popped my liver!😮😅
Wonderful!😊
"May God guide you, and guide us and FIX YOUR MIND" 😂
Arab version of "bless your heart" 😂
what a beautiful language idiomatically
I fucking love this! Idk what it is but I love hearing what languages sound like to others. Japanese is another cool one. Please do more!!!
I also watched your Colors video. What happens if you can't roll your tongue? Will you just not be able to speak Arabic?
It would be fine. Because Arabic doesn’t have the English R sound. It wouldn’t be confusing. People will understand you perfectly. But they will immediately know you have a native English accent.
Just like a person speaking English with R rolling. Two faces of the same coin! 😄
Your podcast is so amazing and well-made! Thank you for creating such helpful content to learn Arabic 💖
I wish there was a playlist of videos that explored the funny literal translations between languages
That's levantian Arabic. Egyptian Arabic is even wierder 😂
I'm a teacher of Arabic as a foreign language. I love this and will share it with all my students!
اللهجه السورية اظن … احلى شي تقبريني 😂😂😂😂😂
So beautiful. It's honey on my heart. It show how beautiful they are inside and out.❤
Oh...❤❤❤❤ This is so precious 💕💕
❤😂 " You popped my liver."
Instant sub 😂 Arabic student with many friends I'm learning to speak like this with ... like what are we saying ...but it makes sense somehow.
What a poetic language!
I love coming across these videos if for any reason they show how important it is to understand the language behind a people and why differences between theirs and yours exist. The help us to understand one another
Precisely ❤ this is how we can love one another. ✌🏼🌎
@@bazs2855 this ^^^
😂😂😂 Beautiful!
The comments on this are constructive, sweet, and amusing! I love language and culture. New subscriber!
This explains a lot of the SHEIN reviews out there
Im borrowing May God have Mercy on you😂❤
The more hearts are like stone, words need to be soft, to cover up
my mom: "I'm sweating like a w**re in church"
brilliant ty for sharing this
