That's true, but it's often overstated a bit. Most Arabs understand Egyptian Arabic from movies and TV shows but do not use it in their day to day lives, so they are passive speakers i.e. they can understand dialogue and substitute words to be understood by a monolingual Egyptian speaker, but they may not understand specific terms, phrases, nor would they necessarily use grammatical constructions correctly. Many Arabs, when speaking Egyptian Arabic, won't know when to use اوى vs كتير, or will put demonstratives and interrogatives at the end of a sentence at all times (when there is a grammatical difference regarding when the words are postpositioned), or won't use the grammatical particle عمّال correctly.

Thank you so much for this video! This comparison is very interesting and helpful! Even though as an Arabic learner, it also scares me a little! These are so basic sentences and I understood almost all of them in standard Arabic but in the dialects.. no chance! :D these are whole different languages. I like the Lebanese dialect since it was closest to Standard Arabic but I like how Tunisian sounds and also that some of their words come from French :D Egyptian was the most difficult for me!
Thank you for your comment ! In the beginning, it will be difficult to differentiate between the dialects, but with time and learning you will be able to distinguish between them, and I want to tell you that Arabs also have some dialects that are difficult for them to differentiate, so you are not alone.😀 You can watch this video to show you what I mean : ruclips.net/video/iKCXmFLAidg/видео.htmlsi=1bxxkNcwRYLs539q . I hope you achieve your goal in learning Arabic soon.
@@rawewond sorry, I don’t mean that the Arabic words come from French as an origin but that French words are used while speaking, (also in general, not only in this video)
@@EasyArabicVideosthe problem isn’t differentiating the “dialects”. The problem is understanding the “dialetcs”. I say “dialects” in quotations because some of them are actually descendant languages. Once you master one of them, whichever you’re born into, or most often MSA for non-Arabs learning for the first time, then you can learn another one of them, and you will become diglossic. You will think of them as one single language because that’s the political classification of them, but the linguistic classification is that they’re separate languages, and “Arabic” is the branch they’re on, much like “Aramaic” is a group of related languages, many of them unintelligible, and no single one of them is “the Aramaic” language. It’s like if you first learn Romance (late Vulgar Latin), which no-one actually speaks vernacularly, and once you’ve learnt that it’s easier to acquire Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Catalan, Romanian, etc, unless you’ve already been born and raised into one of these Romance “dialects”, then the others are easier to learn, and you can also learn Romance. Arabs usually first learn their “dialect”, then they learn al-Fusħa in the education system. Then on top of that they can learn other “dialects”. So technically they’re already multilingual before they even acquire any other non-Arabic language.
for those who don't speak Arabic and want to learn it , my advice for you as an arab person, learn in addition to the standard classical Arabic the syrian dialect, it is the closest dialect in my opinion to the classical and the majority in all Arab countries undrestand it.
I wonder how you can reach such conclusion after watching this video...honestly. I understand them all and I speak only Algerian arabic which is not even in the video, which is not even my native language.
Cool video. When I studied Arabic we studied standard. The textbook also added elements of Egyptian dialect. But our teacher was Lebanese, so she would teacher us Lebanese dialect. And our TA was Tunisian, so he taught us Tunisian dialect
@zachary We Lebanese are NOT Arabs. Just remember that. A lot of people want to throw us into the bunch, but it is insulting because we have our own identity. Our dna isn't Arab. And our culture is also unique. We just speak the language. I'm putting this out there.
@@freepagan Nah man. We're Arab too. As you said Lebanon is unique as compared to other Arab countries, but we're still overall Arab. We're both. Source: am Lebanese (and Arab)
@@the-subster LOL. You can't say Lebanese are unique and then make that claim. You're either a Lebanese or Arab, choose one. If you're actually Lebanese then you are definitely not an Arab. Our origin history culture and DNA are different. End of story.
The Syrian and Egyptian dramas are the most watched dramas among Arabs but the dialect of Damasuc is closer to the formal Arabic than the Egyptian dialect the lebanase songs are well known but their linguistic content is very limited and a big part of them are in the Egyptian dialect
It’s like listening to a Spanish speaker from Spain, a Spanish speaker from South America, an Italian speaker, and a Portuguese speaker all talking to each other. So similar, yet different.
As an Algerian it's so difficult for me to understand the Lebanese dialect but I think it's the one that sounds the best to my ears. Egyptian sounds nice too but it's easier to understand, and I can understand Tunisian despite some differences (barsha / bezzaf for example)

great video ty. I learned only standard arabic which for I was aware all or some can with 100% ease understand. I still am not sure! lmao but good video
This is why i'll never try learning arabic imagine learning for many years but still not understanding if you meet someone speaking in a different dialect😭 too complicated
Bonjour! Votre vidéo est assez intéressante et montre bien les différences et les similitudes des dialectes entre eux et avec l'arabe classique. J'aimerais savoir si je peux la partager dans le cadre d'une présentation des dialectes arabes à des francophones. Merci de votre réponse et bravo encore pour votre contenu assez riche!
by watching this video I can say these dialects look wayyyyy too different from each other, it's like a different language. My goal is to learn MSA. I have learned some basic sentences and structure. But my arabic learning is on pause right now.
I speak the standard Arabic pretty well. It's very distinct from the dialects. It has a different character. It's as if the dialects are regional attempts to simplify it.
standard Arabic is an attempt to simplify and modernize classical Arabic. The dialects evolved from classical Arabic naturally throughout time while mixing and replacing the native tongues of different region.
@@Tripps2564 It didn't happen mostly for political and religious reasons. When most of the Arab world was colonized, a pan Arabist movement, the most popular at the time, was advocating for the independence and forming one big Arab nation. Once they got their independence and became the ruling party pretty much everywhere they made standard Arabic their official language but failed to unify the Arab world. Also, Muslims think Arabic is superior because it's the language of the Quran, so it's pretty hard to try and change it now and maybe for the foreseeable future.
Wow... they're all so unique! Where is the best place for a complete beginner to start? Which one is the most widely understood/spoken?
5 месяцев назад+1
Arabic dialects can be divided in the following: Magrebi arabic( Morroco, Algeria, Tunisia and Lybia), Egyptian arabic, Levantine arabic, iraqi arabic and finaly golf arabic( basically all the oil rich arab countries and yemen).The most understood dialect is the Egyptian then levantine(Lebanese/Syrian/palestinian/jordanian). The dialects of Morroco and Algeria are known to be the hardest. Honestly as a Syrian, I would recomend learning the syrian dialect. Before the war, we were the main producers of popular TV shows with Egypt and most arabs agree that the syrian dialect is the easiast. Search for syrian TV shows or "مسلسلات سورية"or one lebanese podcasts i like is sarde. Just a note: the syrian and lebanese dialect are very very close, so if you learn lebanese arabic it´d be like learning syrian
After MSA Chose a dialect that you really like and that makes sense in your personal life. After I had a solid grasp of MSA, which I really love, I had to choose a dialect. I could not stand the Egyptian but preferred the Levantine. So I started wirh Palestinian/Jordanian, the only 2 countries you can safely travel… after a couple of months I switched to Syrian for 2 reasons: all dubbed Netflix series are in Syrian. And I LOVE its melody. We have so many SYrians in Germany… I never regretted it. On a side note: my sister is married to a Tunisian but 1. useless dialect for the rest of the Arab world. I speak French with all of my family members and whenever I am in Tunisia. except for the youngest ones. He is better in English like many young people although they throw in French words very often.
It's not a shame, genius. Languages change naturally over time. All of them. The only reason standard Arabic still exists is because it was preserved for writing. That's number one. Number two, since you mentioned Lebanese, I'm Lebanese and we aren't Arabs. Only Arabic speakers, because our dna is completely different. This last point may not sound relevant to you, but I'm putting it out there, educating people.
Yeah, too bad Italian people don't speak Latin anymore. Or modern Greek don't speak ancient Greek anymore. Languages do evolve. That's quite logical, though I agree fus7a sounds very nice.
@@aag3752 u cant really differentiate between u and Arabic DNA at all at this point , more over both of us and gulf Arabs are Semites so technically it is the same people
Most of these "dialects" can easily be separate languages, and this video proves it! Each region had its own native language/languages before Arabic so it' ended up being a mix. Arabic was dead at one point and it was artificially revived by the way.
Here in Greece there are a lot of sudents in arabic Fusha.Our teacher is Filistiniya but she teaches us MSA.Every student in Greece if he starts arabic learns MSA.But when i talk like this to people from Syria ,there are a lot, they laugh.So, what s the use of sdudying fusha?
If they laughed it's not because they are mocking you. I can assure you they are pleased with you speaking fos'ha. MSA is good to learn as a base then you can focus on one dialect at a time. Also, Arabic literature is in fus'ha not in dialects!
Amazing video! I'd like to learn Arabic. If I want to travel to Morocco, do I have to learn Standard Arabic and then the corresponding dialect? Or just Standard Arabic?❤
Classic Arabic is mostly use for religious, modern study the best is to learn each diffirent dialect If you speack in standard Arabic people instead laugh
When watching these videos, it becomes obvious that if there were no Quran and Ahadeeth the Arab countries wouldn't speak the same language in 21st century. The languages would separate just like it happened with many other nations.
They are speaking modern standard arabic, Quran is classical arabic, which is studied rather than being a mother tongue( known by every arabic speaker)
From native speaker of Southern Yemen, I can say that The most fluent dilaect near to ancient arabic is arabian peninsula countries, Jordan, Iraq and bedwoin Arab ein Syria, palestine and Egypt

i studied arabic since past year, knowing about the dialects, so i thought: oh, im going to study and get a solid base to improve soon when i start to study the dialects! now im depressed, nobody uses fusha and egyptian arabic isnt that easy 😂😢
I don't speak Arabic, but it sounds like the expressions are totally different. Were these words/phrases picked because they are unusualy divergent between dialects, or otherwise it's hard to imagine how everyone understands each other? Do they have to learn all the dialects? Are they actually able to communicate?
This is how Arabs speak. Some dialects like those from the Maghreb region can be hard to understand by other Arabs. So when communicating with Arabs outside of their region, some words are changed to make the dialect easier to understand.
The Egyptian dialect isn't represented naturally in this video, as it's spoken at a higher pace, also we don't use the world you or انت a lot as it's usually omitted, and finally we use اوي more than جدا.

There's no way i can understand dialects. Good job. 👍
More Lebanese Arabic videos please
Just don't get the wrong idea that Lebanese are actually Arabs. We have a different ancestry, proved by genetics.
@@aag3752tawwil belak
@@aag3752 Bro , Lebanese are speaking Arabic , nobody on this planet has "pure" genetics. Especially in the middle east and north africa where multiple people lived there .
@@farhatk6054 Irrelevant. We Lebanese don't have Arab blood. We have Phoenician/Mediterranean blood. This is a physical fact, so there's really no arguing it. No, not all of us speak Arabic. Did you know that most of us live outside of Lebanon around the world? Many of us don't know any Arabic. So get your facts straight. But more importantly, mind your own bzniss. 💯
@aag3752 same thing about Egyptians ❤ we aren't ethnically Arabs as well
Excellent video, glad he used the "French words" to a minimal extent in the Tunisian Arabic so they can better understand it lol
all accents are beautiful
Geetings from Tunisiaaaaaaaaaa
Awesome video ❤😊 thank you very much
I am from Egypt, and I really love their arabic!
Thank you so much for this video! This comparison is very interesting and helpful! Even though as an Arabic learner, it also scares me a little! These are so basic sentences and I understood almost all of them in standard Arabic but in the dialects.. no chance! :D these are whole different languages. I like the Lebanese dialect since it was closest to Standard Arabic but I like how Tunisian sounds and also that some of their words come from French :D Egyptian was the most difficult for me!
Thank you for your comment ! In the beginning, it will be difficult to differentiate between the dialects, but with time and learning you will be able to distinguish between them, and I want to tell you that Arabs also have some dialects that are difficult for them to differentiate, so you are not alone.😀 You can watch this video to show you what I mean : ruclips.net/video/iKCXmFLAidg/видео.htmlsi=1bxxkNcwRYLs539q . I hope you achieve your goal in learning Arabic soon.
None of the tunisian words from this video comes from french except 1 or 2...
@@rawewond sorry, I don’t mean that the Arabic words come from French as an origin but that French words are used while speaking, (also in general, not only in this video)
@@EasyArabicVideosthe problem isn’t differentiating the “dialects”. The problem is understanding the “dialetcs”.
I say “dialects” in quotations because some of them are actually descendant languages.
Once you master one of them, whichever you’re born into, or most often MSA for non-Arabs learning for the first time, then you can learn another one of them, and you will become diglossic.
You will think of them as one single language because that’s the political classification of them, but the linguistic classification is that they’re separate languages, and “Arabic” is the branch they’re on, much like “Aramaic” is a group of related languages, many of them unintelligible, and no single one of them is “the Aramaic” language.
It’s like if you first learn Romance (late Vulgar Latin), which no-one actually speaks vernacularly, and once you’ve learnt that it’s easier to acquire Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Catalan, Romanian, etc, unless you’ve already been born and raised into one of these Romance “dialects”, then the others are easier to learn, and you can also learn Romance.
Arabs usually first learn their “dialect”, then they learn al-Fusħa in the education system. Then on top of that they can learn other “dialects”. So technically they’re already multilingual before they even acquire any other non-Arabic language.
@@EasyArabicVideos Of note--Lebanese are NOT Arabs. Not by dna or by culture (we have our own unique culture). We just speak the language.
ماشاء الله عليك صدقي ربي يحفظك ولد بلادي 🇹🇳♥️ تحيا تونس الخضراء 🥰
MSA is so beautiful 😮
Edit: Egyptian is cute 🥰
That's an amazing video! 😍 Great job @Easy Arabic 💛
You guys are great :) very nice collaboration indeed!
Thanks alot !
for those who don't speak Arabic and want to learn it , my advice for you as an arab person, learn in addition to the standard classical Arabic the syrian dialect, it is the closest dialect in my opinion to the classical and the majority in all Arab countries undrestand it.

Noo, I would advise Egyptian.
@Ahmed--there's no such thing as an Arab country. It's Arabic speaking countries. Lebanese especially are not Arabs.
they are Arabs and they can all trace their Arab lineages because Arabs intermarried with the locals.@@freepagan
what about the egyptian dialect?
Tunisian dialect is really different in a good way ❤
they are totally like different languages
not really cz they are all saying the same words kinda or a different arabic word that means the same thing
I wonder how you can reach such conclusion after watching this video...honestly. I understand them all and I speak only Algerian arabic which is not even in the video, which is not even my native language.
@@yacinemadaci4754 because you speak Arabic and i don't....
not really because different dialects use different synonyms of the same meaning because arabic is a very rich language with vocabulary!
Hopefully there will be gulf dialects and iraqi as well
And Moroccan darija too !
Классический арабский очень красивый❤

Cool video. When I studied Arabic we studied standard. The textbook also added elements of Egyptian dialect. But our teacher was Lebanese, so she would teacher us Lebanese dialect. And our TA was Tunisian, so he taught us Tunisian dialect
Thanks!
@zachary We Lebanese are NOT Arabs. Just remember that. A lot of people want to throw us into the bunch, but it is insulting because we have our own identity. Our dna isn't Arab. And our culture is also unique. We just speak the language. I'm putting this out there.
@@freepagan Nah man. We're Arab too. As you said Lebanon is unique as compared to other Arab countries, but we're still overall Arab. We're both. Source: am Lebanese (and Arab)
@@the-subster LOL. You can't say Lebanese are unique and then make that claim. You're either a Lebanese or Arab, choose one. If you're actually Lebanese then you are definitely not an Arab. Our origin history culture and DNA are different. End of story.
@@freepagan It's like saying I'm French but not European or something. Or that you're Indian but not Desi.
The Syrian and Egyptian dramas are the most watched dramas among Arabs
but the dialect of Damasuc is closer to the formal Arabic than the Egyptian dialect
the lebanase songs are well known but their linguistic content is very limited and a big part of them are in the Egyptian dialect

Interesting that Tunisian is often more similar to Levantine than Egyptian 😯
Egyptian is the most unique dialect in the Arab world, however it is really similar to the dialect of Gaza in Palestine
@CARTHAGETUNISIAHANNIBAL any proofs?
Phoenicians from the levant settled in Tunisia millenia ago, they brought the language and the dialect with them
@@PhilipusArabus and what?🤣
yea as a tunisian i understand more levantine dialects (especially lebanese) than moroccan dialect
Egyptian and Lebanese are the bests dialects ❤️
It’s like listening to a Spanish speaker from Spain, a Spanish speaker from South America, an Italian speaker, and a Portuguese speaker all talking to each other. So similar, yet different.
Love you guys!! You're amazing!
As an Algerian it's so difficult for me to understand the Lebanese dialect but I think it's the one that sounds the best to my ears. Egyptian sounds nice too but it's easier to understand, and I can understand Tunisian despite some differences (barsha / bezzaf for example)
"despite some differences" bro we sound nothing alike, as a tunisian its much easier to understand levantine than algerian/moroccan

كلمة الفِديو ليست من الفصحى، قولوا المرئية أو المقطع المرئي، وجمعها ليس فِديُز بل مرئيات أو مقاطع.
ويا حبذا لو تنسقوا الجمل أكثر لأن الأعجمي سينفر من العربية عندما يرى أن لا علاقة تذكر بين الفصحى والعاميات.
يعني مثلا ذكرتم كلمة المنزل والبيت والدار وكان ممكنا أن تتوحدوا كلكم على واحدة فقط لأن كل هذه الكلمات فصيحة.
ثانياً كان من الممكن أن تعيدوا ترتيب الجمل بحيث تتطابق عناصرها فيقال بالعربية المعيارية "أعطني بعض الطماطم من فضلك" وبالمصرية "اديني شوية طماطم من فضلك" بدل "من فضلك اديني شوية طماطم" بحيث يوافق مكان كل كلمة في الجملة الأصلية مكان مقابلتها في الجملة باللهجة الأخرى. كما أن الأخت التي مثلت اللهجة المصرية كانت تضيف ضمير الفاعل دائما في بداية كل جملة بينما كانت اللهجات الأخرى لا تذكره وكان ممكنا حذفها في اللهجة المصرية أيضًا حتى تتسق الجمل بشكل أكبر، فبدلًا من قول "أنا عاوزة" مثلاً يقال "عاوزة" أو العكس بجعل باقي اللهجات تذكر ضمير الفاعل، واللغة العربية بها من السعة ما يجعل هذه الأساليب صحيحة.
ثالثًا: الأخ الذي مثل اللهجات المغاربية حبذا لو تكلم بشكل أبطأ حتى يفصل بين كل كلمة وأختها. والأخت التي مثلت الفصحى حبذا لو حركت نهايات الكلمات وفقا للقواعد حتى يقترب الأسلوب من الفصحى المعيارية الحديثة على الأقل.
وشكرًا على مجهودكم في تسويق اللغة العربية
نهايات الجمل في اللغة العربية لا تحرك بل تبقة ساكنة أي في موضوع السكوت يصبح الحرف الاخير ساكنا ..
@@أسمى-ي6ت صحيح، ولقد قصدت نهايات الكلمات الداخلية وليس نهايات الكلمة الأخيرة في كل جملة.
It's very sad that such a great handle is wasted on someone like this.
Iam a non arabic speaker but js how they sound i can tell Tunisian arabic is so so different from the rest
Lebanese is so elegant and easy to the ear
great video ty. I learned only standard arabic which for I was aware all or some can with 100% ease understand. I still am not sure! lmao but good video
I understand Tunisian Arabic more
This is why i'll never try learning arabic imagine learning for many years but still not understanding if you meet someone speaking in a different dialect😭 too complicated
Hahaha I am Egyptian and I struggle to understand some Arabs tbh , so you are right at this point 😂
Bonjour! Votre vidéo est assez intéressante et montre bien les différences et les similitudes des dialectes entre eux et avec l'arabe classique. J'aimerais savoir si je peux la partager dans le cadre d'une présentation des dialectes arabes à des francophones. Merci de votre réponse et bravo encore pour votre contenu assez riche!
by watching this video I can say these dialects look wayyyyy too different from each other, it's like a different language. My goal is to learn MSA.
I have learned some basic sentences and structure. But my arabic learning is on pause right now.
If you learn MSA you will understand all these dialects.
@@Shibeeb81 that's nice
Not true, with MSA you can barely understan some word..you have to learn/study the dialect if you want to understand it
@@Adam10. you’re wrong on a huge level. You should learn standard Arabic then dive in the dialects just like any other language.
@@Shibeeb81 sorry, do you mean if a person don't study MSA He can't learn a dialect?
I speak the standard Arabic pretty well. It's very distinct from the dialects. It has a different character. It's as if the dialects are regional attempts to simplify it.
standard Arabic is an attempt to simplify and modernize classical Arabic. The dialects evolved from classical Arabic naturally throughout time while mixing and replacing the native tongues of different region.
@ELYESSS its interesting that the dialects didn't become codified languages in their own right.
@@Tripps2564 It didn't happen mostly for political and religious reasons. When most of the Arab world was colonized, a pan Arabist movement, the most popular at the time, was advocating for the independence and forming one big Arab nation. Once they got their independence and became the ruling party pretty much everywhere they made standard Arabic their official language but failed to unify the Arab world. Also, Muslims think Arabic is superior because it's the language of the Quran, so it's pretty hard to try and change it now and maybe for the foreseeable future.

these are separate languages (like the Romance dialects) whereas MSA acts like Latin.
Wauuuuu Reallly Creative. I like of all yuo...
Wow... they're all so unique! Where is the best place for a complete beginner to start? Which one is the most widely understood/spoken?
Arabic dialects can be divided in the following: Magrebi arabic( Morroco, Algeria, Tunisia and Lybia), Egyptian arabic, Levantine arabic, iraqi arabic and finaly golf arabic( basically all the oil rich arab countries and yemen).The most understood dialect is the Egyptian then levantine(Lebanese/Syrian/palestinian/jordanian). The dialects of Morroco and Algeria are known to be the hardest. Honestly as a Syrian, I would recomend learning the syrian dialect. Before the war, we were the main producers of popular TV shows with Egypt and most arabs agree that the syrian dialect is the easiast. Search for syrian TV shows or "مسلسلات سورية"or one lebanese podcasts i like is sarde. Just a note: the syrian and lebanese dialect are very very close, so if you learn lebanese arabic it´d be like learning syrian
After MSA Chose a dialect that you really like and that makes sense in your personal life. After I had a solid grasp of MSA, which I really love, I had to choose a dialect. I could not stand the Egyptian but preferred the Levantine. So I started wirh Palestinian/Jordanian, the only 2 countries you can safely travel… after a couple of months I switched to Syrian for 2 reasons: all dubbed Netflix series are in Syrian. And I LOVE its melody. We have so many SYrians in Germany… I never regretted it. On a side note: my sister is married to a Tunisian but 1. useless dialect for the rest of the Arab world. I speak French with all of my family members and whenever I am in Tunisia. except for the youngest ones. He is better in English like many young people although they throw in French words very often.
جميل أوي أوي🎉
Vive la Tunisie🤞❤🇹🇳❤. J'ai aussi aimé le Libanais.😊
Great video!
Honestly the classical arabic sounds the most beautiful sooooooooooooooooooooo classical soooooooooo beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's a shame Arabs don't speak standard Arabic in conversation. It sounds so pleasant. My second choice would be Lebanese.
It's not a shame, genius. Languages change naturally over time. All of them. The only reason standard Arabic still exists is because it was preserved for writing. That's number one. Number two, since you mentioned Lebanese, I'm Lebanese and we aren't Arabs. Only Arabic speakers, because our dna is completely different. This last point may not sound relevant to you, but I'm putting it out there, educating people.
Yeah, too bad Italian people don't speak Latin anymore. Or modern Greek don't speak ancient Greek anymore.
Languages do evolve. That's quite logical, though I agree fus7a sounds very nice.
@@aag3752 u cant really differentiate between u and Arabic DNA at all at this point , more over both of us and gulf Arabs are Semites so technically it is the same people
Most of these "dialects" can easily be separate languages, and this video proves it! Each region had its own native language/languages before Arabic so it' ended up being a mix. Arabic was dead at one point and it was artificially revived by the way.
Here in Greece there are a lot of sudents in arabic Fusha.Our teacher is Filistiniya but she teaches us MSA.Every student in Greece if he starts arabic learns MSA.But when i talk like this to people from Syria ,there are a lot, they laugh.So, what s the use of sdudying fusha?
If they laughed it's not because they are mocking you. I can assure you they are pleased with you speaking fos'ha. MSA is good to learn as a base then you can focus on one dialect at a time. Also, Arabic literature is in fus'ha not in dialects!
Unity, Arab history, and understanding the Quran.
half tunesian half syrian heree
Amazing video! I'd like to learn Arabic. If I want to travel to Morocco, do I have to learn Standard Arabic and then the corresponding dialect? Or just Standard Arabic?❤
French > darija > Msa
In that order
@@zombieat French? 😲 En fait je parle français un peu
@@rociodanielaperez7704 je ne parle france
Classic Arabic is mostly use for religious, modern study the best is to learn each diffirent dialect

Arabic the oficial language and the amszigh.
After that french and spNish in the north.@@zombieat
When watching these videos, it becomes obvious that if there were no Quran and Ahadeeth the Arab countries wouldn't speak the same language in 21st century. The languages would separate just like it happened with many other nations.
They are speaking modern standard arabic, Quran is classical arabic, which is studied rather than being a mother tongue( known by every arabic speaker)
@@asmaulhossnasumya But where are the roots of MSA? What is its source?

As an English speaker, from listening to this video I’d say Lebanese dialect sounds the simplest followed by Tunisian.
The Tunisian dialect 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🤌🏻🤌🏻
Where can I get Lebanese Arabic content to learn from?
Wow I think these are farther apart than Spanish and Italian and Protuguese
the differencees of the dialects in the video like saying how are you and what's your Health 's
Egyptian sounds best of these four but I'll stick to Shami/Levantine because أنا ساكن في القدس (ana saken fil 'uds - I live in Jerusalem).

Tunisian is very similar to Moroccan wow 😮
Is different😮

i studied arabic since past year, knowing about the dialects, so i thought: oh, im going to study and get a solid base to improve soon when i start to study the dialects!
now im depressed, nobody uses fusha and egyptian arabic isnt that easy 😂😢
I don't speak Arabic, but it sounds like the expressions are totally different. Were these words/phrases picked because they are unusualy divergent between dialects, or otherwise it's hard to imagine how everyone understands each other? Do they have to learn all the dialects? Are they actually able to communicate?
There are 12 millions words in Arabic... A lot Don't understand... So they speak the Quran Arabic or Classic arabic(which is understand by every arab)
who told you Arabs speak in Standard Arabic?!@@asmaulhossnasumya
This is how Arabs speak. Some dialects like those from the Maghreb region can be hard to understand by other Arabs. So when communicating with Arabs outside of their region, some words are changed to make the dialect easier to understand.
They do not understand each other but will go to extreme extents to convey to you that they do. Pan-nationalism is one helluva drug.
@@liliqua1293 😊
