Book a call with my team to start learning Arabic here: www.andalusinstitute.com/webinar-yt
Assalamu alaikum
I booked a call but my call was canceled. And I mailed but I did not get any reply.
@@musabibnnazer try rebooking maybe you have to get a reason why they cancelled
@@MuhammadAlAndalusi Assalamu alaikum brother can I ask where you learnt the majority of your fusha Arabic, which country/institute?
FUS-HA/CLASSIC ARABIC IS MOTHER ROOT OF ALL DIALECTS SO IF YOU LEARN FUS-HA YOU CAN LEARN ANY DIALECT EASILY .
But isn't that difficult for a stranger learning like 2 languages? I mean, I would struggle a lot to differentiate msa from dialect, I would do a big mix without knowing of remembering the difference of both, because I weren't grow up in Arabic country. It would be impossible to me to learn 2 different arabics and difference them from speaking to writing
@@Lorenzo-ib5rg learning foreign language is difficult no doubt. It is not 2 languages MSA is tree and Dialects are branches . Arabic Media,school speak MSa.
I started to try learning Arabic last summer. After realizing the many dialects that came after, I was really deterred. I still am haha. I can’t seem to give it up though. I have no idea if I’ll ever use it, but it helped me a lot to keep my mind on track as far as continued learning goes.
Great video!
This question crossed my mind this week and I came to the same conclusion.
JazakhAllah Khayr for posting your observations and thoughts; this was useful.
In Chadian Arabic we also say Sawwa/ Yisawwi to say to do like khaleeji. You learn me something !
Diaspora Arabs who didn't have a training in Standard Arabic have a hard time understanding other dialects while those who did generally understand and even start to speak the other dialect if they wish with some exposure and cetrainly without any training.
Nice editing
Hello 💛
From Mauritania 🇲🇷
Assalamu alaikum! I thought you were on a bicycle too! Moving kind of fast there! I think you should use MSA! I don't know too much about the pronunciations of Arabic! If you think MSA is better, OK! use it.. MashaAllah!
JazakAllahukair yes you really do look like you are flying, I thought you were riding motorcycle or something lol
One thing I don't understand... I understand that, although some dialects are more widely understood than others, generally speaking they are quite distinct and it is well possible that two native Arabic speakers from two different areas will not easily understand each other's dialects. However MSA isn't used as an international version of Arabic that people from distinct countries use to communicate, is it? Why so?
Msa is indeed used as an international language for all Arab nations, on news, news papers, political gatherings, books, university etc
@@MuhammadAlAndalusi What if a Lebanese person travels to Morocco and goes to the market? Will the Lebanese and the fruit seller use MSA or will they just struggle to understand each other using their own dialects? This is the kind of unofficial, horizontal and everyday-type of communication I am wondering about.
Anyway thanks for the reply. Found your channel just yesterday and enjoying your videos
@@matteosposato9448 ooh in that case they use "the white dialect" which is the type of slang that most Arabs understand
@@MuhammadAlAndalusi ah, I hadn't heard of it yet. Thanks again!
@@MuhammadAlAndalusiit’s more complicated now with “the white dialect” may be foreigner should straight learn that ?
BarakALLAHfeekum

That’s what you think but after you get good in msa and after learn dialect you will easily jump from both. Your brain is just saying that now because you don’t speak Arabic yet.
@@theunknownSoldier. Thank you so much this was really helpful! 🙏
Where are you!? Doesn't look like Mauritania 🇲🇷.
I got a question. If nobody speaks al fusha on a daily life , how can I improve ma standard Arabic if it's not constantly spoken among people? I need to improve my ear and my speaking of course
On official arabic Media speak Standard Arabic.
People use it in formal situations, like Al-Jazeera, not just the news also discussions ect..
Which is better to learn first, MSA conversational Arabic or Arabic grammar? My intention is to try to understand the Quran / Hadeeth etc.
Classic arabic
The title is misleading. From it I expected to find a recommendation regarding which Arabic dialect to learn. In the end after hearing multiple accents the recommendation is to learn MSA. But thanks all the same!
You should learn both. In day to day life Arabs do not communicate in fusha
Are you in Spain? Which city?
Welcome to Barcelona 🔥 hottie 🌶️🌶️🌶️ 😊
This guy riding on a bike or something and im thinking brother moving pretty smooth😂😂😂
Fusha and msa same???@
Yes, they’re the same thing
In the western world they call it MSA which stands for Modern Standard Arabic but in the Arab World they call it Al-Fusha (الفصحى)
It’s the same thing just two different named depending on if you’re in the west or in the Arab World. I hope this helped :)
Fusha = MSA + Classical, for Arabs is the same thing the difference is just the style and the choice of words, no grammatical difference no specific course for each one.
Are you riding a bike? 🤣
“Dialects only are a diluded version of the classical/Msa Arabic”
Do you actually know how languages evolve? This idea that dialects are diluded version or classical is so stupid; you expect people to speak a shakespearean arabic?!? This classical arabic is not natural for speaking as its too formal. People will laugh and look at your weird, and rightly so as its Shakespeare type speaking. Classical/msa is only good for reading, analysing texts like Quran or understanding the news but not for conversation, music or tv shows.
It could've been his way to explain the link between MSA and dialect
Hi, I think you did not get his point concisely. Let me enlighten you by doing so.
When he mentioned that term you quoted in your comment, he meant it as in modern standard arabic is the ROOTS towards understanding other dialects with precision, you have to note that arabic dialects borrow and get their words from the origin.
Speaking from experience, learning MSA/Fusha is the best thing I've done, and I do not regret it at all. It's genuinely helpful actually, speaking 'Shakespearean' Arabic is what helps you understand other dialects as well. The other point you brought to light was people will make a mockery out of you if you happen to speak the formal dialect well let me inform you, that is beyond wrong and not true at all. People do the opposite actually especially if you are a foreigner, they will praise you and will literally be impressed, complimenting your arabic in general.
Learning MSA arabic is like opening doors to almost ALL arabic dialects in the arabic world, that was his point.
I hope you understood this time without a doubt! Have a good day.
Standard Arabic has a context for it. It would be weird it we hear a dialect in news instead of Fusha
If one has time, it wouldn't hurt to learn fusha first and then dialect
