Маха, привет, спасибо большое за уроки. Ты можешь, пожалуйста, писать звук погромче?
@@סטאס привет пожалуйста :) да я постараюсь 😊
@LevantineArabicwithMaha спасибо тебе большое, слушал все твои подкасты. Про транспорт понял почти всё даже. Могу писать по английски, или неважно?

Very useful, really!! ❤
@@AnaMaria-vg7tx I'm glad :) appreciate it :)
I’m learning Arabic in Egypt - in their dialect. I understand you fairly well, however. You speak very clearly so this is helpful, thank you.
I'm happy to hear this :) Yes it's not the same but there are common words as they both have the same origin: the modern standard Arabic :) and even if you use this dialect they will understand you in Egypt :)
Another great lesson! Hope you will create videos for advance level :)
thank you 🙂 nshalla!
Very informative and interesting topic! Thank you maha
@@saharkattar you're welcome😊
Thank you very much for your podcasts. They are ready great. It is quite clear you spend a lot of time on them. One suggestion: please make a list of the main vocabulary at the beginning with the Arabic transcript. I listened carefully, but I am still not sure how to write transportation in Arabic. Is it نعل? نإل? نقل?
@@mohammadeskandari4385 thank you! Yes that's a good idea. You can turn on the translation in Arabic and check the words in Arabic script as well :) transportation is written like نقل but we pronounce the qaf as alef in Lebanon :)
احسن بودكاست بلهجة لبنانية . . Молодец мне очень нравится

Can you make videos , translating Lebanese movies or series and explaining the expressions in it! It would be helpful to learn arabic.
@@Zayn-xz3wpI will try but I'm not sure I can due to copyright...I can explain expressions separately and the more you listen to Arabic content the more you'll understand later when you watch series or anything else :)
Thanks for adding subtitles!
Great.
🙂
Thank you for sharing Maha. Glad to see you well and good luck. Hope you can return to Lebanon soon. Missing your Arabic lessons! InshaAllah temporary
Hi Usman thank you! me too inshallah soon I will message you hopefully next week!
How do you pronounce ض in the lebanese dialect? While in fus7a the pronunciation is a bit hard, it seems like the lebanese dialect doesn‘t really differentiate between ض and س. Both sound like a usual „s“ in the english language as in „sorry“. Or is there indeed a specific pronunciation for ض in the lebanese dialect?
@@paytez ض is pronounced like in fus7a as a hard d such as in the words مريضة That means the pronunciation is the same as fus7a for this letter :) ث is sometimes pronounced like "s
Oh wait, I am so sorry! I meant ص and not ض. I mean that ص seems to be pronounced like a س. Sorry for the confusion😊
@paytez yea makes sense..but we also pronounce it like fus7a maybe a bit softer but definately harder than an s. Does it make sense? That means they don't sound the same even in lebanese dialect.
@@LevantineArabicwithMaha yes I think I get what you mean. Maybe the pronunciation of letters in the lebanese dialect could be a potential video. Especially uncommon letters like ض ص ق غ ع خ ح ج ط ط ذ ث 😊
@@paytez that's a great idea I will do it nshalla :)
Бог в помощь! الله يسهلكم
