    This is terrible. You keep referring to "real" Arabic when this is absolutely not. It is Egyptian Arabic dialect and not Modern Standard Arabic (aka Modern Classic Arabic فصحى) which people should be learning.

    "Mish" is not Classic Arabic, it's Egyptian.

    "Ana bakalem shwaya" is not Classic Arabic, nor formal speak, it's Egyptian.

    Also the audio is very poor quality and it's not structured well. Just translating random phrases.

      The dialect may not be authentic but apparently Egyptian kuss is very authentic and a direct substitute for Arabic kuss.

      • +11

        Don't quite agree with that. You don't teach someone English by teaching them Scouse or Cockney. You start with Modern English.

        Also, 49 million of the 51 million Egyptian Arabic speakers are native speakers in Egypt. No one speaks Egyptian Arabic in any Middle Eastern countries from Iraq to Lebanon to Saudi to UAE. Unless you're Egyptian.

        It is indeed prevalent in movie and tv shows but not commonly spoken in most Arabic countries. Unless you're Egyptian living there.

        The course structure is visible on the left navbar hence linked examples.

        Good luck to you, but people should know this isn't "real Arabic" before they buy.

        • You start with Modern English.

          Unrelated (maybe not) - so what accent / dialect would you start with?

          • +3

            @afoveht: In the UK, schools teach British English with Received Pronunciation dialect. This is considered the "Standard English" baseline to learn the language.

          • @mohamed86: The only thing common about Egyptian Arabic is that Egypt is one of the largest producers of Arabic movies. Hence people get exposed to it. If it wasn’t for this there would be no one other that Egyptians who speak or understand it.
            Sorry but “real” Arabic is definitely not Egyptian Arabic.

        • Your stats are incorrect = your argument must be too.

          Egypts population is 104m

          • +11

            @Suspect420: Not sure how that logic works for you since not the entire Egyptian population speak Egyptian Arabic. A third or so speak Sa'idi Arabic alone.

            However, it's irrelevant how many million Egyptians do, as was indicative of the total speaker split being majority Egyptian, not global.

            For students who are brand new to Arabic, Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) is the recommended place to start. It is the official language of 22 Arab countries, many in the Middle East, the Horn of Africa and Northern Africa. It is one of the most popular languages spoken in the world and is one of the official languages of the United Nations.

            MSA is the Arabic taught in schools at all levels. Unlike Egyptian Colloquial Arabic, Modern Standard Arabic is universal across Arab countries. MSA is a good starting point in learning the fundamental basics of speaking Arabic.

            https://www.arabacademy.com/egyptian-arabic-vs-modern-standa…

            Always start from Standard Arabic to learn the root of the Arabic language. Standard Arabic should always be your main priority and focus, but also spend some time to familiarize yourself with a dialect.

            It’s ideal to spend 80% of your focus on Standard Arabic and 20% on a dialect. This way you can find the common words and some differences between them. Modern Standard Arabic will always be your stronger language, and you’ll be able to communicate with the Arabs in Modern Standard Arabic, understand their dialects while enjoying every bit of Arabic language and culture.

            https://ai.glossika.com/blog/learn-modern-standard-arabic-or…

            If you’re new to Arabic, most people will advise you to learn Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and with good reason.

            https://kaleela.com/the-difference-between-modern-standard-a…

            So, which one should I learn? If you are doing it because you love languages, travel and/or want to speak with as many people as possible, MSA will give you a solid foundation in the origins of this language and help you acquire different dialects in the future.

            https://www.languagetrainers.com.au/blog/better-learn-modern…

            However, I'm sure there's plenty that feel otherwise too. That's perfectly fine.

            There's no doubt benefits to learning local dialects, no matter which one they pick. I just objected to Egyptian Arabic being called "real Arabic" when marketing to people that may not know otherwise.

            I need something better to do at 1AM… Good night.

                @mohamed86: Here is another vote that Egyptian Arabic is not a good choice to learn Arabic. Unless the individual wanted to specifically learn Egyptian Arabic as it’s very different than standard arabic or other dialects around the Gulf Area or the Levant.

                For anyone that want to learn a foreign language. I highly recommend the Pimsleur courses. They are considered as the gold standard to learn languages. With Arabic you get a choice between Modern Arabic, Eastern (Gulf Countries) and Egyptian (which is clearly marked as such)

      I was going to say, even with my limited Lebanese background. I didn't understand that.
      Kalem = words
      Ehki = speak
      For me Ana behki inglessy would be I speak English.
      Don't know how that translates in modern Arabic.
      But it goes to show, depending on where you are wanting to go, learning the dialect is essential. In saying that I would agree that classic/modern Arabic education shouldn't be based off a dialect.

    • @hybroid is correct

      As an interesting FYI I believe this program may never teach you jahsh as the j is not on the Egyptian vocabulary. Normally substitutes with G as in how it's enunciated in golf.
      (Again not 100% sure but most conversational egyptian Arabic have no j sound)

            @a1k: In the Old Testament, “man shall not lay with man” is listed along with other “unclean” things such as pork. Check Leviticus 18:22

            In the New Testament, Jesus expressly made it clear that “the old way has passed away”, meaning the previous covenant (agreement) between God and man is no longer valid. He effectively nullified previous conventions like circumcision and not eating pork; he made what was unclean “clean”.

            This is what keeps me away from Christianity because it is always contradicting. But this is only my personal opinion.

    Men, if you truly want to sound like a battle crazed, bladed weapon wielding Klingon warrior chieftan with a thick 9 inch cranial ridge — it's imperative you learn the IRAQI dialect.

  • +3

    Not sure what makes this “REAL” Arabic. Almost looks like this website is a bridging course to read the Quran or to be a recipient of proselytism, based on all the photos.
    Arabic had many dialects and if you spoke Egyptian dialect to the millions of others of Arabs, they would struggle to understand or laugh at you. For most of the people that speak Arabic in Australia, this would be quite unhelpful. Much better off learning a more widely accepted Standardised Arabic.

                • @kungfuman: Oh yeah dude. You totally weren't being xenophobic at all…

                  • @[Deactivated]: who said you were? multiple wives would be great. Arabs have it made. maybe Australias are just jealous they can't do this.

    I never knew about different versions of Arabic, so I've learnt something today.

    In all seriousness, everyone needs to calm down, it's 13 bucks….If someone thinks they're going to become a fluent speaker in any language after 13 bucks well good luck to them, or should I say "Hhazz sa'a"

      It's like all languages, there's different dialects depending on the region. Try speaking ocker to an American and they can't understand a word of it.
