Zoe, tell me what difficulties you have encountered in learning Arabic.
The most difficult thing is that there are many Arabic dialects.
I mean, people don't speak standard Arabic in their daily lives.
Even all dialects are very different from each other, they are not close.
Did you know that even in one country, each city has its own dialect?
Really? Like what?
For exemple, let's say the word "what"
In Syria for exemple, In Damascus, we say "shu"
In Aleppo we say "ishu"
In Deer Al Zour we say we say "shukon"
In Idlib, we say "ashu"
Oh it's so cute
If I want to learn specific phrases for each city, can you give me examples?
specific phrases for each city?
Yes yes
We will start from Damascus
"son of my uncle" (a way to call the husband)
"son of my uncle" is like "habibi " right?
yes in Damascus we speak like this, very romantic
it's not romantic, "son of my uncle" what's that?
Oh, so nice so beautiful
Are this flirting word?
No
"oh my bad" (sentence we use when we blame ourselves)
Now we move on to the Aleppo dialect. come on, what?
What's going on? What the hell
Why are you so unbearable
what does "jage" mean, chicken? (it sounds like chicken)
Now we go to Homs
But people in Homs don't say Homs, they say Hooooms
Mama I want to eat Kebbeh
Now the dialect of As Suwaida
In the south right?
yes
sweet way for the woman to call her man (I don't know how to translate)
I can't believe myself
I can't believe my eyes
The dialect of the coast
when you get angry to someone (don't know how to translate)
What is this?! Is it Arabic, is it Syrian? Are you kidding me?
I didn't insult you but you insult yourself
Why it sounds like Chinese?
Like Chinese?
One more time
Oh it's so difficult
Deer Al Zour, it's my dialect, I am originally from Deer Al Zour and Aleppo
What the hell is it?
What is this disgusting thing
What does is mean "gife"
When you see something disgusting, you say "gife"
Go die.
okra horns
it's the name of food
a special dish in Deer Al Zour?
Oh my flower my dear
