Welcome to the channel! My name's Gisselle, I'm a budget traveler and have been to 6 out of the 7 continents, visiting 20+ countries, living for some time in Sydney, Australia as well as in Saigon, Vietnam. I am currently living in Cairo, Egypt and exploring all this beautiful country has to offer while visiting nearby countries as well. I am a lover of language and a culturally curious lady just making my way through life one day at a time. I live to learn, I love to travel and explore, try new things and meet interesting people anywhere and everywhere in the world. Come along with me as I solo travel the globe and discover fascinating new places, try delicious local food, meet lovely people, and share a moment in time on this beautiful planet, our Earth.

Я в Египте нахожусь уже год. Тоже стал учить арабский язык. Английский тоже подтягиваю. Мне 61 год.
Arabic stands out as one of the most challenging languages worldwide. Your decision to focus on Egyptian Arabic showcases your intelligence. Essentially, nearly 99.99% of the Arab world comprehends and communicates in Egyptian Arabic, owing to the vast impact of their media empire-similar to the pervasive influence of American media across the globe.
Ahaha, yes! Egypt: Hollywood of the Arab world! 😄I do like watching a lot of their films too. Not that I understand most of it, as they speak so fast 😅But I try
Hehe I can speak in English almost like Native English speakers especially the British accent
Your language is just too easy
Arabic's grammar is a pain 😫
Even on me as a native
There is a lot to learn like نحو و الصرف و العروض and a lot more
@@Gventures the movie black honey عسل اسود is my favourite if you Didn't find any subtitles for it it would be a pleasure to manually translate it for you
It might be difficult to become fluent in Arabic but in my experience, it is exceptionally easy to learn and understand some basic phrases in Arabic.
Arabs are exceptionally good at speaking simple Arabic to foreigners and helping them understand and and be understood.
على العكس اللغة العربية من أسهل لغات العالم فهي تعتمد نظام الجذر، أيضا النحو العربي منطقي ويغلب عليه القياس.
أبشرك أن كل التعبيرات التي تفضلت بها السيدة عربية فصيحة سليمة ، ولا أنكر تعدد اللكنات فهذا في معظم لغات العالم
وتفضيل بعض العبارات على غيرها يكون رغبة شخصية !
This is SO much better than any other Egyptian Arabic travel phrases video I've seen, and I've seen at least a dozen. I appreciate that you repeat each phrase multiple times and with sample contexts, that you keep the phrases concise but still explain each word, that you give very phonetically-sensible spellings in the English alphabet, and (especially!) that you give multiple pronunciations, and by native speakers. This was really helpful!
Thank you so much!!! I certainly did try my best, as a non-native speaker still learning the language myself 😅 I only made one other video about the "language" (it's actually about the numbers), but in case you haven't seen that, here it is:
czcams.com/video/CR4JiErBKkE/video.html
Thank you so much for watching, and happy to hear it helped! 🥰🙏
@@Gventures Awesome, thank you! And if you do another language video soon, I'll certainly check it out. (I've found your other informational Egypt videos for travelers, like on local vegetarian food, czcams.com/video/qZzanN5oZzQ/video.html, and local dress, czcams.com/video/hIyojPXrp-Q/video.html, really helpful. You seem to have a good sense of the sorts of questions conscious travelers ask themselves before going to a new place.)
@@erinlnmiller Ah yes, actually many videos I have made about Egypt were answering questions I had myself when I first arrived to Egypt! 😅 Now I have so many ideas about videos I want to make, it's just about finding the time to make them all! And I get more ideas every day. Suggestions from viewers, both Egyptians and foreigners, new ancient sites I did not know about, different foods to try, lesser known villages and beautiful cities not many tourists ever visit, oh the list goes on 😄❤
I feel that you love Egypt very much❤❤❤
Thank you for this video! My wife and I are going to Egypt in June and I wanted to learn a couple words in Egyptian Arabic just so people would know I'm trying! This was exactly what I was looking for!
Awesome! Happy to hear this will help! Locals always appreciate when they see you made a little effort. Respect 😎🤜🤛
WOW , loved it loved it loved --- thanks Guiselle for these wonderful FREE lessons . I really appreciate it
Awesome, thanks Tobias! Good for you for learning some Egyptian Arabic, it's certainly not an easy language! Shukran gidden 😁🙏
This is amazing, hope to see more
So cool! Ahh! I loved this video! Thank you for teaching me these simple yet still important words and phrases to use on a daily! Shukran, Habibty!! 🫶🏻👑✨
Afwan 😊
Your channel is super! Always watching it when I miss Egypt so much. Honestly you deserve sooo much more subscribers. Inshallah one day they will find you. Happy Eid from Finland 🙂🇫🇮🩷
Thank you so much Niccolilina! 🥰 Inshallah. Eid saiid!
Your video came perfectly at the right time since I started learning Arabic for my vacation in Egypt soon. Since I knew where this summer's stay would be, I stumbled upon your videos and am really enjoying watching you love the culture and your adventures there. Thank you so much for your content! :)
That's amazing, you're going to love Egypt! So happy you have found this video helpful, and that you're learning how to say a few things for your visit! I respect that ❤
I'm glad I found this video. I'm trying to learn basic Egyptian Arabic to be able to at least be polite while I'm there on my family vacation. Thanks so much! 👏🙏❤️
That's so awesome to hear, I think it is very respectful to the people of any country one is visiting to learn a few basic phrases, so I'm very happy to hear that you are that kind of traveler. Thanks for watching, and happy travels!!! 🥰
Hello Giselle!! My God, thank you so much for this free class. I love it!!! I learned many things that I did not know. Because I speak Spanish as my first language, I wrote down the sounds or phonetic for the pronunciation.....so my next visit of course I will tell them..... Muchas Gracias Che!!
Ahaha, yessss that's awesome! I definitely respect people that try to learn a few words in the local language of the country they are visiting. Not only is it a sign of respect to learn a few words, but it's a lot more fun to interact with locals when you can say even just a few things! 😁
Thank you so much for making this video, especially when you getting the locals pronouncing the words. It’s brilliant !!!!!!
Yeah man I'm super grateful my friends were willing to participate in the video, all thanks to them! 🥰🙏
Thank you so much for these free lessons you are offering to foreigners wanting to communicate, at least a bit, with people living in this lovely country❤
right on! this is so awesome. i can’t wait for my upcoming trip to egypt. ana baheb maser!
Aywa 😁❤
Egyptian language is the very popular because egypt is the country of cinema and music and TV and theater and media
Yes exactly. Egypt is the Hollywood of the Arabic speaking world
Your accent and tone is really good actually. Now you can dance just like an Egyptian. Best wishes
Thank you for this simple words and meaning.., syukran..😊I’m moslim but a bit difficult to speak Arabic . I do recited Quran 😊just generally speaking a bit hard😂
OMG this was simply awesome thank you for the hard work producing this content it cant have been easy I have learnt so much of useful words I cant thank you enough please do a follow up , I loved here the voices of the locals they are a lovely bunch , I am currently living in Hurghada would be great to say hello some time you are very inspirational , much love and blessings 👍👍❤❤
Shukran gidden! 😁🙏
Thank you for your very informative videos.
Fantastic, thankyou
thank you so much 😊
Great video young lady! Thank you!
Very helpful keep up the great work 👍
Thank you! ❤
Great video, Many Thanks.. Giselle 👍💜it
Thanks lady! 🥰
Interesting video! Keep’em coming 👍
Thank you, this is fun to learn ☺️✨
Great, thank you! Not my typical video, but hopefully someone will find it helpful. A few people have asked me to make a video like this over the past year and I finally got around to doing it 😅
This is an interesting lesson. I'm Egyptian, and I teach the Arabic language to non-native speakers. your video is joyful.
The letter (ح) you pronounce it as you are eating something spicy, your reaction will be the sound of the ( ح )letter.
Hope you have a good life.
Yes, that's another good analogy. The sunglasses analogy worked for me, but there are a few ways to describe it to a non-native Arabic speaker 👍 Hope you also have
a good life 😁❤
🥰👍@@Gventures Thank you.
Thank you again for another great informative video. 👍
Love this video
Thanks for this very practical lesson Giselle ….and to your friends too! I had a French teacher years ago who grew up in Egypt. His accent was so beautiful that I wanted to go study French there! I had no idea people spoke French there … aussi ;) awesome tutorial. I took lots of notes. ;) Ana baheb Maser .. already ❤️ Your lesson on numbers is next. Be well
Oh, this is so awesome to hear, thank you!!! W ana bae7eb masr kman! (and I also love Egypt!)
Thank you going to have to rewatch a few times! Lol ❤
😅🥰
Love the video, so helpful.. btw.. When explaining La-a to English speakers, it might help to compare it to uh-uh (nope) which has a similar sound & meaning. Thanks - Shukran 😀
That is very smart ❤ Great tip
Excellent video! Thank you
Thank you donna! All the best! 😊
Thank you very much for this lesson ! Exactly what I was searching and super cool.Merci !!!
Thank you Northbear, happy to hear that!
@@Gventures This Thursday, 1 week to Luxor. So, your help is perfect for me 👌😍😍
What a great video! There was so much great information presented and I learned a great deal! Your presentation was excellent! I eagerly look forward to seeing more videos similar to this in the future. Thank you for taking time to make this.
Shukran gidden 😊🙏
Thank you so much an excellent lesson.. I ve watched several times to listen n make notes. Shukrun
Happy to oblige Judith! 😁And I'm happy to hear it's helpful, thanks again 😊🙏
Love this❤ . I will be practicing this before I come to Egypt.
Thank you so much for ALL of your videos, learnt so much,especially this one,visiting hurgarda in September, will definitely try speaking some Arabic ❤
Awesome! And thank you so much for watching, I'm super happy to hear my videos are helpful, it's really why I make them! I always hope they are entertaining as well, but my true intent is to relay information that will be useful to other travelers planning similar trips, so thank you so much! And if you ever have any questions about anything Egypt (whether it's bartering or taxis or anything else), don't hesitate to ask! 😁❤
Thank you so much! Shukran owy, right? Your videos have been so clutch in helping me and the group im going to Egypt with at the end of the month learn what to expect in Egypt. Thanks again! 😊
Great to hear! Thanks so much for watching and I'm glad you've been finding them helpful!
Thanks so much enjoyed your videos. 20 years ago I studied classical Arabic in Spain. Here are my 2cents... there are 3 types of "ha" or "he" sound... one is very gutural, the other one is softer and the last one is ultra soft. for instance Jaima, tent, is the hardest sound "he", the "he" you use in "ahlan" is the softest and there is another one which you would use in "merhaba". Also, Egyptian shortens classical arabic words so when you learn only egyptian arabic, you miss the nuance of the real original word.. (not that it matters when you are in the Egyptian streets communicating with people). Another fun thing about Egyptian is how they cut words in a sharp way for instance when they say "aoolek ei" for "how are you". And they have tons of funky ways to say hello like "Ya mishmish" "hi peach" (they call you fruits, peach or orange burtukal). I love so much Egypt...such a fun place! Also, every other arabic country will understand Egyptian arabic because of the film industry... which makes things easy if you learn Egyptian Arabic and then venture into some Gulf countries.
Interesting input. I like to hear other people's knowledge or thoughts on things, so thanks for sharing your perspective on that. Allow me to toss my two cents around some more on some of your comments, if you would allow me to 😅
I am studying Egyptian Arabic now, my boyfriend is Egyptian as well, and I had him read your comment just to make sure I was understanding what you were saying correctly (because I was honestly confused and thought maybe I was missing something in my Arabic learning process here in Egypt 😅). So everything I am about to refer to is of course specifically Egyptian Arabic and not MSA (aka Fus7a), because I have never studied MSA. Of course, as someone who has studied Arabic extensively, you know Fus7a is not spoken widely (almost at all) in any country (except for perhaps by the extremely religious). It is only read, and the dialects actually spoken by people vary according to country. But there are only 2 "H" sounds in Arabic, "Hay" ه and "Ha" ح (Franco 7). The other one you are referring to is Khuh خ (Franco 5) as in Khamaya (or "tent" in English). Khuh is not really an H or making an H sound at all, but it is unique and does not exist in English, so I guess for people that are unaware, it's the easiest way to explain it. Ahlan is the H that English speakers will not have an issue pronouncing, as it is a "normal" English sounding H, Arabic ه. And mar7aba is the very breathy H (Franco 7, Arabic ح) which we also do not have in English.
"A7walak ay" is still said, however it's more often phrased "ay a7wel." But I hear "ezayek" or "awm el ay" or "ay el a5bar" far more often (though maybe it's just the people I meet 😅). They also do have many ways to call each other, that is true and totally depends on the person. 😆 And yes, Egypt is the Hollywood of the Arab world, which works out great for anyone like me learning the Egyptian dialect! My only concern is maybe struggling to understand Arabic speakers from outside of Egypt in the future, but I think the more I learn the easier it will become to understand and make connections to other dialects. Sorry for the novel but it sparked something inside of me and I had to write it all out 🤣
You explain very good❤
Thank you 😊🙏
@@Gventures I’m living in Egypt one year already!! So try to learn the language🙏
@@naturalbeautymore2522 Yes me too. It is not a very easy language to learn, but I do my best 😅
Holy heck you talk about a banger video! Dam fine work, keep em coming girl.. Adrian from the great sunshine state
Thank you so much! I certainly will 🙏😎
Best teacher I’ve heard! Thanks for so much clarification 👍🏼
Thank you so much Michele 🥰 Happy to hear it's been helpful 😁
Am so glad to found this video ma'am thank you so much I will love to learn more from you ma
Hi, I just subscribed as I will be visiting Egypt next year, Thanks for all the videos, this is by far the best one I have found on language. Could you please do another. This is so helpful. Im loving your videos thank you again,.
Thanks Troy! You know, I really don't consider myself an authority on Egyptian Arabic, I am still pretty terrible at it myself and still learning, just these basic expressions I knew well enough to make a video about (with the help of Egyptian friends also saying everything in the video to clarify) 😅 But I do leave some links to Egyptian's channels that make videos about the language, and I think they are much better examples to learn the language from and ensure you get the right pronunciation, so I recommend watching those links I left in the description of the video. I did make one more video somewhat regarding the language, it's about the numbers: czcams.com/video/CR4JiErBKkE/video.html
Best of luck on your Egyptian Arabic learning journey! 🙏
There are other resources for learning Arabic as well, although of course they cost money. But Pimsluer is one option, italki is another. Otherwise, for free, I think watching CZcams videos with Egyptian channels will be your best bet 👌
Bravo good job .. 3ash 👍
😅 Shukran!
Yet again, wonderful video! Beautifully put together and your voice reminds me of a glass of wine after work in a Monday, relaxing! Thank you!!!
A glass of wine after work 😅 That's a nice description I like that, thank you! ❤
really its a very useful content you deserve sooo much more subscribers i swear
Thank you so much, I’m currently trying to learn with a tutor as well 😅 thankfully they are very patient. It’s been challenging but very fun. Love your videos!
Lol yes I hear you there, so much to learn! Good luck with your Arabic learning adventure (and mine too, God help me 🤣)
excellent, you make it so easy to learn a few words and practice these foreign sounds. so much better than some other intro I've seen ...
you could try teaching foreigners ...
I’m going to Egypt in 7 days thank you so so much
❤❤Tire support. Welcome to Egypt ❤
So detailed and stylish. Especially love the natives showing the right pronounciations. Such a beautiful and ancient language! Thank you so much for this! Now I know more than just hello and goodbye!
El afu! 😁 And thanks for watching 🙏
haven’t finished the video yet and am already so glad to have found it! loved the humble way that you spoke about the language and also bringing native speakers into the scene was a huge help. Egyptian Arabic will be my 7th language and i’m just starting! I’ll be posting videos of my process, let’s see how it goes 😅
Wow 7 languages, that's incredible! Best of luck, and thanks so much for watching, I'm happy to hear it was helpful! 🙏🙏
Love this video. Going to use your video to continue practicing my Arabic.
By the way at the airport I can confirm 100% Bank of Egypt accepts M/C or Visa CC since I’m there monthly wanted to confirm that had not changed.
It actually cleared by debit checking acct @ 23.98 usd, just 2 wks ago
Are you talking about for a visa on arrival?
@@Gventures yes a tourists/visitors visa. I just arrived again last night, still accepting my CC, no questions asked.
@@jalong8296 Oh great, good to know, thanks!
You welcome in Egypt ❤

My husband of twenty years died on 6/11/22and we never made it to Egypt because of Covid yuk🤷♀️Anyways I just got a message from sister she might not travel with me to close to my nieces wedding date on 22nd .My plan was 7th -15th so about 4 days in Egypt to visit Pyramids and see the Flower of Life Symbol and Stars align above Pyramids on the 11th .Im 🙏✨✨✨✨that I get to meet u I definitely think we would enjoy each others company your super sweet and a go getter for sure taking no shit from your surroundings and I’m the same way in a very Smiling kinda way always freaking Happy all the time get told I smile to much I’m like ya what’s your point? Lol So I will keep in touch thanks for returning so quickly on response Stay Safe and Healthy and Beautiful.Oh I’m 51 Years old don’t look it but That’s my age and not getting any younger so I’m coming to Egypt for Sure buying my ticket as soon as taxes return this next week .Oh one ???How much $$$do u think would be good to sleep eat and either ride rent travel to pyramids and maybe stay one night on the 11th close to them ?There is probably no way of sleeping outside under stars near them is there?Might be silly question but I’m from Oregon Mountains so I love shot like that 🤗🤗🤗✨✨✨✨✨✨🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thanks a lot, it is the most useful video on CZcams for complete beginners and travelers❤️ I found it much more clear than some nstructions from natives
Thank you! I tried my best, but definitely had to have some native speakers in there to hear the correct pronunciation 😅 Also do check out some links in the description of the video, I link to a few Egyptian channels that I did find helpful myself 😎
Learning different language ,specially if it is different culture and religion will be great addition to someone knowledge and his way of thinking.
Yep learning is always good
I love your haircut!!!
Thanks!
Ahh Shurkan ya Okhti! A few new things there I wasn't so sure on. Good to know stuff!
I got back from Egypt yesterday, the Sharm el sheik museum is a lovely little visit. But I definitely won't be returning to sharm area again. It's not for me 🙈 can't wait to come to Cairo soon and hopefully meet you 🇪🇬🏍️
Yeah I haven't actually spent time in Sharm yet I've only passed through, but I also think it is not for me. I do intend to give it a chance in the future, but quite sure it is not my vibes...
You seem so talented.!
bravo et kherie
Thank you Gisselle, I found this video and all your other videos, very informative. I’m visiting Cairo with my sons in April to see the sights. We are from Wales UK, and learning some basic words and phrases will help us greatly. Shukran
Thank you so much for your support Gary! And happy to hear my videos are helpful, I really strive to make them so, and glad to hear they are proving useful. Cheers! 🥰
I love this video 💜 I'm giving up smoking and need something to focus on so I'm going to watch this video a lot lol. When I go to Egypt in a few years it will come in handy😂
Awesome video. Thanks for making it! Extremely helpful! Will be watching it numerous times before my upcoming trip to Egypt this October. The only thing missing that I would like to know how to say is "Where Is". (i.e. Where is the bathroom? Where is the market?)
Oh dang, you're right that should have been in there. Where = fayn/feen. It kind of sounds like a mix between the two (also people pronounce things differently, so one person might sound like feen and another like fayn.) The English vowel sounds and distinction between them are not as important in Arabic. For example to say 20, it is eshreen. But people also say iyshreen. I thought the two were distinctively different and I was messing up the pronunciation for about 2 weeks when I first arrived and started learning, then I realized it didn't matter 😆
One thing I wish I would have also mentioned in the video, don't mess up "where are you from?" like I did. People here will ask you "Minayn?" which means "where are you from?" and if said quickly or unclearly, it can kind of sound like "money." I thought a few times in the very beginning people were asking me for money because it sounded kind of similar, with a slight accent. 🤦♀
Thank you for this, an idea for your next video could be numbers. We can now ask how much in Egyptian, but we’d have no idea what they say if they reply in Egyptian haha
Yeah that's true. Honestly though the numbers are complicated! 😆They even look different. I intend on doing a video about "Things You May Not Know About Egypt" and included in that I want to mention the numbers being different, but I dunno how in depth I will get 😅 But there are Egyptians that teach the numbers on CZcams and they are for sure better at this than me anyway 😄 However, it is an idea! And maybe I will. Definitely under consideration 🙏
The fact you are a foreigner as all of us helps a lot as you too encounter the very same difficulties we face❤
Welcome to our beautiful country Egypt 🇪🇬
I love the way you speak in English madam….shukran
Thanks
Can you do a film on what to tip for service? I am going to Sharm el Sheik next week, LOVE your channel.
Thank you! I've gotten a lot of requests to make a video about tipping, but I honestly don't know anything about tipping when it comes to tourism. I know the rules for local stuff like local cafes and taxis and ordering food delivery, but when it comes to tipping hotel staff, tour guides and drivers with tourist companies, I have no idea, because I never stay in hotels or take tours. Sorry about that!
Service fees are included to your bill
@@CarlCaf No they aren't, not for tipping guides, drivers, etc. Some companies collect tips before or after the tour, but most companies do not do that and they expect tips from tourists.
You are so smart. انت امريكيه ذكيه
Watching this video many times,my memory is terrible when it comes to learning a language,it will be easier when we are there using it .Thank You Gisselle every day getting closer to June Yeah
Yes learning a language is difficult, and Arabic is extremely difficult 😅 Good that you are making the effort though, I think that is very respectful to do as a guest in a country, I always try to learn a few words in the local language of any country I visit, and that's how I started learning Arabic 😄
This was very nice, thanks Pepsi~Cola.🤣
Pepsi~Cola 🤣🤣🤣

Thank you! I’m headed to Egypt in a few weeks. This and your other videos are super helpful! One word that I think might be important to know is bathroom. How do you say bathroom in Egyptian Arabic?
Thanks Ryan! HamMem means bathroom. Stress on the M because a simple hamam with no stress on the M means pigeon 😆

@@archanapal8072 Ahaha, thank you 🥰
3:15 in literary arabic arabs the "a" of the definite article is not pronounced when speaking continuously (as long as it s not at the beginning or after a pause). In dialects it is not pronounced almost anywhere.
Don't let the english transliterations confuse you. So when someone writes "Al"/"El" they are just writing the definite article whose pronunciation also depends on the following consonnant (so either you pronounce the L or you don't but you double the next consonnant)
E.g ma'assalama (preposition + definite article + name) = ma'/ma'a AlSalama
I know that. The shams rule 😂
Very interesting Giselle - thank you! It's strange, but some of the Arabic I learned in Egypt was not understood when I lived in Bahrain! And Saudi Arabic is different again. Very confusing!
Oh yes, the Arabic dialects can vary quite a lot. Especially if you go west from Egypt, countries like Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco
Im working with my egyptian collegues and its my eagerness to learn a bit of arabic language in order to communicate with them much better👍👍👍
Yeah, I want to communicate more with friends and people around me, that's my reason too! Good luck! ❤

This video is 9 months old so you probably know this by now but Incase you don't, you don't have to add the word (ana) to your sentences, it doesn't really add much value to the sentence, and more often than not it tends to not be needed, also you can just use hi or hello just fine, pretty sure that everyone knows what it means, people will still appreciate it if you put some effort into learning their language but basically everyone knows what hello means
Yeah I knew that even before I made the video, but for beginners it is important to mention "ana". It's like Spanish, you don't need to say "Yo quiero" to say "I want" you can just say "Quiero" which is the "I" version of "want." Same with hello, of course you can say hello and even thank you in English, but it's nice to show you made an effort to learn the language of the country you are in. I always do this when I am traveling around the world, even though most countries know "hi," "bye," and "thank you" in English.
You make me laughing 🤣 when you try saying El hesab. Hahaha...really you are beautiful smart ❤️ and strong
I start watching 👀 years videos God bless 🙌 you 🙏
Welcome to Saudia Arabia Riyad city
Ahlen marhaba
I'm been trying to learn Egyptian Arabic to prepare for my trip but have decided to switch to Modern Standard Arabic since the latter is understood through out the Arab world (getting confused with the different dialects).
By the way, my flight just got cancelled 😿but I'm going to keep looking. Shukran 🙏
True, it is understood, though not spoken except by newscasters on tv. But at least you'll be understood. Good luck with the flight hunt! Hate when flights get cancelled, what a nightmare, especially if there are connecting flights involved.
It really depends on what you're aiming for and immediate need. Yes, MSA is the official language, and everybody should definitely understand you. However, it doesn't work fully the other way round, and you won't be able to get much of what you hear, except for the formal situations. For instance, my wife studied MSA for a couple of years (before we got to meet) and was hugely disappointed when she realised she couldn't understand almost anything from our day to day discussions. In summary, if your aim is to learn the language in a formal manner, for example to study, read or learn its basics then go for MSA. If your aim is to communicate and exchange in a natural way with people then you should rather learn their dialect. Not to complicate things, but even dialects differ immensely. If you go for Egyptian you have all the chances that almost everyone would understand you (because of the popularity of the Egyptian dialect across the Arab world).

It would be good if one learns to say "I speak a little Arabic" so you dont show yourself right away that you dont speak, and the ripp offs would come down....Love this video....
Oh it would be instantly obvious you don't speak. All they have to do is say something to you, and they will see you don't understand and recognize you don't know Arabic, immediately. In fact, if someone learns to say "I speak a little Arabic" then that Arabic speaking person will start speaking faster and saying more, and the foreigner would be totally screwed 😅 Trust me, I know from experience
@@Gventures Nice one...😆😆😆😆

Can you do more videos like this? Like for example when you ask is this from Egypt? He did it, she did it, im practicing, I’m sad, I’m happy, tired, sleep, hungry, mad 😅I’m asking to much❤
Lol. Honestly I'm not great at Arabic and am learning myself, I am paying for a tutor now because I just wasn't learning enough. I plan to make a video about a few numbers and the money sometime though. For the words you are asking about, it isn't just as simple as "he did it", "she did it" like in English, because it will depend on what you are talking about (the context), items have genders, etc. so it will change depending on what you are saying. I know to say (if you are a girl): I am sad is "ana za3lena", I am happy is "ana mabsuta", I am tired is "ana ta3bena", I am hungry is "ana guy3ana". I don't even know how to say I am mad 🤣
@@Gventures you I learned a lot from this video!! Because you made thoughtful and well explain!!! Anything you are learning in Arabic just share it please ❤️
@@naturalbeautymore2522 Ahaha, well that's too much, to be honest. But CZcams videos are great to learn from! Just type in Egyptian Arabic if that is what you are trying to learn. Here's one lady I have learned a few things from:

And this is another channel that I have recently found helpful as well:

I'm sad ana zaelan
I'm happy ana farhan
I'm tired ana teaban
I'm hungry ana gean
@@mamthabiba9666 No no no no. First, you are speaking as a man, but as a woman, I say (and the other commenter-who is a girl- will say)
Ana za3lena = I am sad
Ana mabsuta (or far7ana) = I am happy
Ana ta3bena = I am tired
Ana ga3ana = I am hungry
Thanks a lot for this video❤❤ the “kheer” sound with the throat is so difficult to make 😖😖 I guess it’s just practice
😆Yes there are definitely a lot of difficult new sounds in Arabic that many of us are not accustomed to. Like I said though, we don't have to master them, Egyptians will still likely understand what we are trying to say 😄

I don’t know why I’m watching this as an Egyptian lol. I guess just curiosity. Anyway just wanted to say, your pronunciation is actually pretty good. Keep it up , you’re doing great💪🏼
Ahaha. Thank you so much, I appreciate that. It's certainly a struggle to pronounce certain words, but I do my best 🤣
Do a video of teaching us to count egypt monies when they charge so we know what 10.00 looks like or 5.00 or 88.00 teach us to count egp monies pls thanks.

The accent of the Arabic language spoken with in Asia sounds more aggressive compared to north african nations especially the Egyptian accent is particularly friendly with softer tone, almost flat in fact, hence why so many arabic speaking nations love the Egyptian accent. The Libyan is also quite friendly, but the Algerian accent and tone sounds generally more aggressive.
