  • @AhmedAyman-bg3hx
    @AhmedAyman-bg3hx Před 2 lety +104

    The differences here are not purely due to the differing dialects/accents, but also the choice of words commonly used in each region. Most (maybe all) terms used in the video are derived from fusha Arabic and can be found in an Arabic dictionary. For example, to say "woke up", some Arabs would say "صحيت" which stems from the Arabic word "الصحوة", others would use "فقت" which stems from the Arabic word "الافاقة", and some would use "قمت" which stems from the Arabic word "قام". There are also many different word choices/expressions for saying "today", "ate breakfast", "family", etc. that are all correct and stem from fusha words. This is similar to many cases in English like saying pants vs saying trousers, crisps vs chips, french fries vs chips, cookie vs biscuit, aubergine vs eggplant, and the list goes on and on.
    The differences in dialects and accents come into play when pronouncing certain sounds in these words. For example, as Muhammad pointed out in the video, Egyptians would pronounce the ج like the English G sound. Interestingly though, people from the Arabian peninsula (gulf) pronounce the ق like the English G sound. In other words, an Egyptian pronounces the ج exactly like a person from the gulf countries pronounces the ق, both of which are incorrect from a standard fusha Arabic POV. Another example is that Egyptians, Syrians, Lebanese, and Palestinians/Jordanians sometimes pronounce the ق like a ء. The dialect/accent also impacts the tone fluctuations, clarity, rhythm and pace, all of which, when combined with the different word choices, can make the same sentence sound very different coming from different Arabs. Pretty interesting right?

    • @belalabusultan5911
      @belalabusultan5911 Před rokem +1

      your comment is true... mostly, but many dialects use foreign words, like many people in north Africa in this video used the word (kojina) to describe a kitchen, which is derived from French (Cuisine) and Spanish (Cocina), and is not related to the Arabic word for it (MaT-bakh مطبخ).
      and yes, the European colonialism in these areas does affect their dialect, but the Turks (Ottoman Empire) and Kurds ruled most of the rest of the Arab world for too long...

      learning a dialect is far easier than learning whole new language, if they spoke classical Arabic, then they should pick any accent in a month or two.
      I know many people from my city (Gaza - Palestine) who went to Algeria and Morocco for work or study, they told me they picked the dialect in 1 - 2 months, keep in mind it is the hardest dialect for us to understand.....
      so I guess your family can pick the dialect just by going to the market, walking around and hearing people talk, chatting with co workers and neighbours etc...

    As a Moroccan I admit that our dialect is the hardest one from the point of view of the classical Arabic, but,I am raised in Spain and didn't really grow in an Arabic country and a still be able to understand and speak the classical Arabic and I understand pretty well all the Arabic dialects, sometimes I struggle with the UAE and Qatari dialects because they say some strange words that I don't know what they mean,also Iraqis say some Kurdish and Persian words that disturb my understanding but nothing that could avoid a deep conversation (I think that what make the Magrebi dialect difficult is apart of our accent,the amount of Berber, French,and Spanish words that we often use when we speak)

    It is important to understand that within each country there are usually several dialects, which can differ a lot. But I would say that the Saudi Najdi dialect is the closest to classical Arabic and so is the Najdi dialect spoken in Jordan. The actual Omani dialect is also very close to classical Arabic, but not the dialects spoken in the far North of Oman or the Southern dialects of Oman.
    You can't get a full understanding of how close a dialect is to classical Arabic from a few sentences, you have to have good knowledge of each respective dialect. The North African dialects are not that close to classical Arabic, neither are the sham dialects, or the Iraqi dialects or the Khaleeji dialects. All these dialects have had strong influences from other languages over the centuries. It also makes sense that Najdi Arabic and perhaps the Omani dialect are closest to classical Arabic, as they indigenous to the Arabian Peninsula and they haven't had too many outside influences. For example, Najdi Arabic which is predominantly spoken in central Saudi Arabia, is much more closer to classical Arabic than Hijazi Arabic(spoken in Western Saudi) or Khaleeji Arabic(Spoken in Eastern Saudi Arabia).

      I do agree with you that Dialects in Saudi are the closest to classic Arabic, however, you have chosen the dialect that is most off Classic Arabic (Najdi) it's not true that the Najdi dialect hasn't had outside influences, in fact, Najd is the most influenced region of Arabian Peninsula by an outsider and this becuse of many historical factors. the least influenced region of the Arabian Peninsula by outsiders is the southern region. therefore Dialects in southern Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Oman are the closets to classic Arabic.

  • @meatmoneymilkmonogamyequal5583

    I have BA in Arabic. I say learn classical and then choose a dialect. Learn MSA Arabic in a more passive manner but perhaps after 6 months you can start a dialect a dialect because this is what people speak on a daily basis. Keep in mind that Arabic speakers learn the dialect FIRST as kids. For folks like me who didn't have that luxury of growing in up in an Arabic speaking house hold, the truth is that when you study Arabic its like you''re studying a language and a half. I did 3 years of classical Arabic at university in Spain. Then I did a summer course in Amman after my 3rd year. I found a book on the Shami dialect before I went to Amman and when I got to Amman it made it so much easier to communicate with the people. I also lived in Morocco. If you go to Morocco and say...............أنا أريد أن أذهب إلى بنك you sound crazy! Nobody speaks that way at all!بغيت نمشي لبنك is much better!

    I could simplify it a bit ....
    1- the countries to the west of the Arabic world (Algeria - Tunisia - Morocco) can be grouped in the (Maghrebi Dialect) or (Darja), it's the hardest language for other Arabs to understand, because it has plenty of French and Berber laon words, but they also are the best at understanding other dialects.
    2- Mauritania speaks it's own dialect called (Hassayneya), which is surprisingly easy to understandm even tho its country is the furthest from the origin of the language (Arabian peninsuela).
    3- the rest of the dialects are grouped into (Mashreqi -meaning eastern-) but they differ rom place to place.......
    4- Egypt and Yemen change the (J) to a (G) sound, like in the word (Girl), so a (Jar) would become (Gar), Egyptian is the most understood in the Arab world because their cinema and music industry is popular in the Arab world.
    5- Saudi - Omani - Qatar - UAQ - Bahrain - and Kuwait are in the (Khaleej -eaning Gulf-) dialect, they change the Arabic ق sound to (G), but some areas speak it as in standard Arabic.
    6- Palestine - Syria - Lebanon - and Jordan are in the Levant (Shami) dialect, they change the ق sound to (A), tho in the rural areas and in the south there are variations, the letter could change to G, Ch, or K, this dialect is the 2nd most well understood because of Syrian TV shows and Lebanese music industry, also Palestinians refugees moved to all the Arab countries there is.
    7- Iraq is a unique case, their south sounds like the Gulf dialect, their west sounds like the rural Levant dialect, their north is influenced by the various linguistic groups there (Kurds - Chaldonian - Turkish etc...), and their east is influenced by Persian, also, they are the 2nd least understood among the Arab dialects, mostly people who speak Darja call it the hardest dialect.
    --------------------------------------
    advice: learn standard Arabic, you can get along with all formal and legal stuff that way, and then learn the dialect of the country you'd like to visit so you sound like the locals .... if you are not planning to visit an Arab country but do want to speak the slang, then there is a dialect called (White Dialect) which is basically a comination of all Arab dialects into one simplified dialect, it uses the easiest parts to understand of all dialects and mix in some standard Arabic ..... the closest dialect to the white dialect is (Hejazi Arabic) which is a sub-dialect spoken in Saudi Arabia, but they also have some unique words and phrases so it's not pure white accent.

    This was fun, shukran! I teach Levantine/Shami along with the fundamentals of MSA, an intro course which students can then continue either or both (or branch off to another dialect). Many in the comments are asking which dialect to study...you really just need to choose one, and that would depend on your personal goals/interests. That said, Egyptian and Levantine are considered the most widely understood, in part due to these regions having a long history of producing films and other media. I look forward to watching more of your content...مع السلامة

    Being from Egypt it’s amazing to have heard all of the Arabic dialects and how each is different with each background from colonizers to proximity to the Arab peninsula.
