Hebrew and Arabic are both Semitic languages which share a lot of similarities in their vocabulary. Hebrew is a Northwest Semitic language and the only living Canaanite language left in world. Ancient Hebrew went extinct as a spoken language many centuries ago. However, it survived as a liturgical language for Judaism thanks to Jewish liturgy, rabbinic literature, intra-Jewish commerce, and other texts. For this reason, Hebrew is now considered the only truly successful example of a revived dead language. In the 19th century, it was revived as a spoken and literary language. Hebrew became the lingua franca of Palestine's Jews, and subsequently the official language of the State of Israel. After Israel, the United States has the second largest Hebrew-speaking population in the world.
Meanwhile, Arabic is a Central Semitic language and the official language of Algeria, Bahrain, Comoros, Chad, Djibouti, Egypt, Eritrea, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Malta (Maltese Arabic), Lebanon, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, SADR, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Tanzania (Zanzibar), Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, and Yemen. Arabic is also the liturgical language of Islam. Arabic has influenced some European languages, such as Spanish and to a lesser extent Portuguese, Valencian, Catalan, Sicilian, Greek and Bulgarian. Arabic has also great influenced Persian, Turkish, Spanish, Maltese, Urdu, Kashmiri, Kurdish, Bosnian, Kazakh, Bengali, Hindi, Malay, Maldivian, Indonesian, Pashto, Punjabi, Tagalog, Sindhi and Hausa and some languages in parts of Africa. In addition, Arabic has borrowed words from other languages including Greek and Persian.

Plzz.do a challenge on arabic and urdu.btw enjoyed watching this challenge.peace.
Imho, it's interesting to do a challenge of similarities between Arabic (or Hebrew) and Amharic because Amharic is also Semitic Group's language (now alive) with millions native speakers. But when i heard some sentences in Amharic and their translations i didn't see any similarity with Arabic and Hebrew there, like Amharic is not a Semitic language at all.
Naghi Astnei Actually, no. Because official language is very different from second language. Some countries have 2,3, or 4 official languages but none are second or third languages taught in schools so she is right and it was a very beautiful statement she made because Arabic isn't a second language that is taught in Israel. In my country we have official languages that many of is never hear about and in school we don't know them and our second language is English.
Bahador Alast do Amaharic and Hebrew, Please, Please, Please
Dariush090909 Nonsense! Amaharic is absolutely Semetic. It is more similar to Hebrew than Arabic. Many nouns such as and adjectives are the same such as 'blue' and 'poor'. Also they both have similar masculine and feminine endings.
As an Assyrian speaker, I can understand basically all of these words

The Canaanite languages or Hebraic languages are a subfamily of the Semitic languages, which were spoken by the ancient peoples of the Canaan region, including Canaanites, Israelites, Phoenicians, and Philistines. All of them became extinct as native languages in the early 1st millennium CE, although Hebrew remained in continuous literary and religious use among Jews, and was revived as a spoken, everyday language in the 19th century by Eliezer Ben Yehuda. The Phoenician (and especially Carthaginian) expansion spread their Canaanite language to the Western Mediterranean for a time, but there too it died out, although it seems to have survived slightly longer than in Phoenicia itself.
I am an Assyrian and I understand everything that my sister is Jewish and Arab say
I'm a portuguese speaker who have been studying Hebrew for four years now, and last month I started studying Arabic. I can't tell how much I LOVED this video! I'm showing this to both my teachers. And I'm also looking forward for a future video with all the semitics languages. Keep up this beautiful work ❤️

It`s worth mentioning that the Israeli girl is Ashkenazi (white) had she been Sefardi (Brown) she would understand more and pronounce Hebrew in a more Arab way.
You feed on stereotypes and do not have an adequate knowledge of Jewish groups. Many Ashkenazic Jews are not in fact white. See for example ashkenazi.weebly.com/gallery.html and ashkenazim.weebly.com/alternate-order-experiment.html . Some of these Ashkenazim can pass even for Arabian peninsula Arabs, not to mention Levantine Arabs. There are also plenty of white Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews.
Secondly, with few exceptions, Sefardi Jews no longer pronounce Hebrew properly.
@@ZviJ1 true, my dad is half ashkenazi and he's often mistaken for yemenite (he's not).
@bun bun
Although I don't consider myself Ashkenazi, I was born to Ashkenazic parents and have been mistaken at least twice for an Arab.
@@ZviJ1 exactly! 😹 also i've seen so many blonde-haired and blue-eyed arabs that i mistook for tourists from europe

Yam is also Bahr(sea) synonym in Standard Arabic, i find it interesting
couldn't agree more, certainly they have the same roots but still they are two distinct languages
Man Egyptians they don't hate anybody , they are very welcoming people
Because the Arabs copy Hebrew.
no both of them come from semitic language in the middle east
We are all Semitic cousins (Assyrians, Jews, and Arabs). We are so much more similar than we think, the only thing dividing us is politics. So many people in this world blindsided by burning hatred, and think that peace between our peoples is impossible. Jews, Assyrians, and Arabs are extremely similar and we should all be able to embrace our similar cultures and heritages without allowing political opinions to interfere.
They are united by mutual love of Hummus and Falafel
I think the same. People are stupid they alow to be manipulated so much.
However, Europeans cannot be Semitic at the same time. They have forcefully tired to take a culture that is not theirs as well as the land and resources and loves of the native Semite in the Middle East.
@ Europeans are not Semitic, but Jews are a Semitic people. The Jews that lived in Europe still retained lots of their original dna and identity, rarely assimilating with local people.
@jamilabagash149 jews have retained a connection to the levant for 2000 years and some jews never left
If all Hebrews, Iranians and Egyptians were like these three people, just chilling and having a good time, peace in the middle would be achieved.

Amharic is an interesting one because of the Cushitic influence on it. It's funny how cognates are actually more a rarity than a common thing. ትግርኛ ከዓረብኛና ከዕብራይስጥ ጋር ተጨማሪ ተዛማጅ ቃላት ያሉት ይመስለኛል።
Hebrew and Arabic are classified as Semitic languages so they are very similar
Kast r
Arabic and Amharic also Hebrew ,Aramaic and Syriac languages are both Semitic
That's because Hebrew language is created 120 years ago, and it's created from Arabic. The person who did this is Eliezer Ben Yehuda, and he admitted it.
@@AnAncient76 uhm no
@@marionicolasmartin Just research! It is easy to find what Eliezer stated, wrote.
@@AnAncient76 And what is your point in that? Eliezer ben Yehuda didn't create Hebrew, he revived it.
There is modern hebrew and ancient Hebrew , learn the diffrence between creating and reviving.
Fun fact!
In both languages, the word for arabic and hebrew are the same word but just 2 letters swich places...
Merhaba, Turkish is not a semitic language but we have a lot of loan word from arabic. So, while two ladies are competing each other i could find some words. Greetings from Turkey.

Arabic and hebrew are semite languages, I speak both languages and they’re 70% or more similar but deferent pronounciation of words more like dialects
not at all!
No, try to find cognates for words like وطن, مثل, جنس, بلد, etc. You will not find any. Arabic is a dialect continuum throughout the MENA region, and Hebrew along with Samaritan is the last Canaanite language (the others are all extinct)
@@everettduncan7543
Actually مثل has a precise cognate in Hebrew - משל which means to compare (and also: a parable) and the word למשל= مثلا precisely. But you're right that there are large differences in vocabulary.
@@y2k2all I wonder how the nation-related words came about. Maybe borrowings from pre-semitic tribes?
@@everettduncan7543 you have to go back to ancient Arabic in arabia clean Arabic language no dialects1500/2000 years ago to match it with other Semitic language
This video was really funny to watch. I’m a Portuguese trying to learn Hebrew. However, even through this video I could notice the influence of Arabic in the Portuguese language. Because the Moors conquered our peninsula for centuries, we have many words borrowed from Arabic. One that was mentioned here is “sala”, which is living room. We also use “sala” for living room in Portuguese 🥰
Yeah, I speak Hebrew and learn Spanish and Arabic and I've seen some effects on Spanish from Arabic. I guess it affected Portuguese too.
Very true. Portuguese has A LOT of Arabic words. In all of Europe the Iberian peninsula (Portugal/Spain) and Sicily Italy have the most Arabic influence in their language.
O hebraico também teve muita influência no Brasil. Pará (vaca) e é o nome do nosso estado aqui no Brasil.
In most of schools in israel it is mandatory to learn at least basic arabic, when i was going through those arabic leasons i thought to myself "wow arabic ans hebrew are very simmilar", but only now i realise how similar the languages are, it is absolutly amazing.
Arabs and Jews are cousins.
Semitic; (like the Shem of Ham Shem and Japheth. The sons of Noah.
Yes, Israelis learn basic Arabic in school. The Israeli Arabs also learn Ivrit in school. I have a student, here in California, who an Israeli Arab and her language is (obviously) Arabic but I can tell her some phrases in simple Ivrit and she understands due to her class in school.
@@npickard4218 no such thing as Israeli Arabs... they are Palestinians with an “Israeli” citizenship

Similar? They sound completely different to me. Specific words may sound like they came from the same origin (they actually did), but when you hear people speak those languages they sound completely different. Most Hebrew speaking Israelis don't understand Arabic unless they've studied it or picked some of it up from Arabic speaking friends, co workers etc, and there are many East Jerusalem Arabs (usually children, teens or people in their 20s) who don't, or barely speak Hebrew, and they can't understand the Hebrew language either.
It's so distasteful when people try to bring their political bs in a video about linguistic appreciation
As a historical linguist who works on both Arabic and Hebrew, and having lived in both Israel and Egypt, this made my day and I really enjoyed watching them figure out the sound-correspondences of each other's language.
Which one should I learn first, Arabic or Hebrew?
@@jacoblee9765 personally i would go for hebrew. the script is, to me, easier since a lot of characters in arabic are detailed and connected while hebrew, both print and cursive forms, are not. i don’t know grammar to well for either since i am still learning, but on a script basis, i recommend hebrew. it also just looks cooler to me but that’s just me, no disrespect to arabs :)
Glad to see you here!
I am a retired Iranian man. I really enjoyed this clip. If we emphasize what we have in common the world would be a great place. The politician can also go to an Island and live their lives with their wars and hostilities toward one another! PEACE, SHALOM, SALAAM
Man, I'm Arab. My father loves Iranian and always told me that we Arabs and Iranians as neighbors will come to peace one day, sooner or later.
Competition is cool. Hatred and war is not. Take care.
Hi Hassan, thank you for your thoughtful comment. I wish you the best in life.
Thank you for your beautiful comment! I agree with you. We all need to learn to live in peace together. There are so many good things from our different cultures. Arabs. Jewish people, Iranian have so much good to offer to each other.
Someone said, "Anything that divides people is not good". Well, religion is a divider.
As such it is better that we follow the human right charter and keep our religion to ourselves. These Ebrahimi religions are causing a lot of wars!!!!:)
I am Iranian and I hate the current government of Iran, they are not representative of the average Iranian at all! They have only achieved one thing in 40 years, that is to get more Iranians to hate Islam. That's it! That's the biggest achievement
Peace NoWAR i am an arab and I absolutely do not hate iranians or any nationality because i dont think of the nationality itself but the ones in control, we should all love each other regardless of wars, i know it is hard but i wish peace could be achieved between us all.
The biggest connection between Arabic and Hebrew is that they revolve heavily around the *consonants* and historically have in writing. If you think of these words strictly in terms of how they are written, omitting most vowels, you can very easily see the connections.
Im really happy to see a israeli , egyptian and a persian in a video being really nice to each other...it’s hard to find them these days

arabic = issac - Hebrew = ItzH'ACK (Will laugh)
on the torah :
Ishma el - 2 words - the name of ishmael
Ishma' = Will hear .. El = God
after, Hagar (the mother of ishmael) were banished to desert by her husband ibraham (Avraham - hebrew) She didn't had what to give to the baby to eat or drink, and she was crying and were puts the baby under some bush, the baby cried and god heard his cry and let Hagar to see a Water well, then they saved, and she called him Ishma = Will hear || El = God (God will hear) / (God will hear her pain and her baby cries)
in arabic by the way Isma means Will hear, in Hebrew = Ishma
Izzhak = 1 word, (Will laugh)
Izzhak was the Ishmael brother, but to another mother, (Sara)

@@Keepit-nq3id No not trying to move there. Actually I already moved to Europe because it's a bit complex in the ME.
I wanna learn Hebrew because:
"If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart."
We live next to each other yet we do not really know each. I have no interest in the governments of both countries; only in the people, all people.
In my life I have met and befriended people from all cultures and countries but never someone from Israel (Idk why..)
And the first step to solve a problem is communication.
This is why I want to learn Hebrew, because I have an interest in knowing this culture and this people, and talk about what we have in common which is way more than our differences.
Thank you for asking me and I hope I have answered your question.

Hebrew went through a number of vowel shifts between 500 BC/BCE and 500 AD/CE. Shemesh came from Shamesh, which came from Shamsh. I am sure that the Egyptian woman surely would have recognized Shamsh in Arabic!

Ironically in the episodes where they compare Arabic[s] with Persian they get it easier because these are late loanwords, whereas here the pronunciations have shifted a lot

I found this a very interesting, funny, educational and informative video... 5k people are against having fun and learning?!
Some see fire instead of light
It's an arab Israeli video.
What did u expect ?
what about palestinian
@@mujahidhasan118 Can you expand on that?
@@GenocideWesterners Maybe people actually watching the video?
It's sad how stereotypes, politic with the mix of religion and history ruined their peace.
It's not about Occupation, it's about Occupation and stealing Palestinian homes and land to this day. #BDS
nothing to do with religion, actually I heard that a true jew will never inter israel according to torah
utakata sama
because Israel is a secular country, made for all ethnic Jews, not only for adherents of judaism, and some religious nuts don't like that
@Sonic Hedgehog no Palestinian belong to Arabs
I don't understand why this video was such a pleasure to watch. Thank you!
10:13 actually, Arabic is the second language of Israel
only politics makes them fight each others. look at this beautiful video. It makes me happy seeing the Israeli, Iranian and Egyptian sitting together and laughing. great video
well said indeed , sir , it is all politics and greed , the people are nice everywhere in the world but politics are the problem
@EritreanMusiq jews aren't from Europe and Levantines are white
False
Only zionists r the reason for fights
They said it long ago
Wherever u set foot at land you should take it
Politics???? They took our land end destroyed our houses farms schools and you say politics? Which politics? It's an existential conflict , politics are between 2 existed Countries, not a county that is made by gangs
I wish the world can come together like this. forget about politics, religions and armies and just be who we really are brothers and sisters in humanity. Love to every Arab and Israeli who is willing to accept peace and friendship. Love from Egypt
You're the most genuinely peaceful guy on youtube. I love this channel
Thank you! Really appreciate that :)
Actually the Iraqi dialect of Baghdad and Mosul would be much more closer to Hebrew I terms of pronunciation. The Egyptian dialect is a bit off road. Syrian and Lebanese are also closer to Hebrew than Egyptian.

I'm a Sephardic Jew and all my 4 grandparents were born in an Islamic country. Sadly this isn't an option nowadays

same goes for jew lived in palestine before hmmm british came in
moroccans will always have a soft spot for Jews , for over 600years we shared the sweet and the bitter with our jewish bretherens, you'll always be welcom in Morocco
Yes hundred years until you start killing us
You seem to be Mizrahi not Sephardic? Sephardic Jews are strictly from Spain or Portugal.
You can blame wahabbism and politics for that
Gosh this is so wholesome, an Israeli and Egyptian having a casual chat. No politics, No religion, just a mutual heritage and love for one another. Wish the world worked this way.
Not when one oppresses the other
not everyone is politics and stuff lol, i'm literally palestinian living in america with israeli friend. it's normal lmao
I am an Iranian Jew and I support Israel. The difference between Iran and the Arabs is that (our bastard Muslim government hates Israel) but the Iranian people are a great friend and supporter of Israel, but (the Islamic State of the Arabs) surrenders to Israel, but the Arab people hate Israel.

This could easily be the best language learning technique. I thoroughly enjoyed it and of course learnt these words very quickly.
This is SO interesting!!! I'm from Brazil and trying to learn hebrew and arabic! This video is perfect to me! Amazing and cool. I'm learning a lot, thank you!
I can help you if you want, I'm an Arab 😄
Good luck! As a semite I recommend you to learn Aramic first, it will help you so much with learning both Hebrew and Arabic after that since Aramic is the base of the semites languages..
Israeli, Egyptian and Iranian in one room having fun and laughing. Now we can die in peace.

Well this comment section is the biggest definition of "immature" God forbid they see the word, Israel, Jewish, Jew or Hebrew, the only thing you will see in the comments is the Palestinian flag and full on war. You guys need to grow up. Yes I do not what the Israeli government is doing to the Palestinians but for you guys to spam the Palestinian flag thinking you guys are heroes and/or you thought you did something is very immature. You can hate the country all you want but for you the generalize every Israeli and every Jewish as a Zionist is just evil. No empathy in this world at all. Its like judging every German as a Jew Hater for what happened during N*zi Germany or calling every American fat because of stereotypes. You did not like it when arabs were called "T*rrorists" so how come its totally fine to generalize all the Israelis that? Unless the Palestinians and the Israelis make up and have a two state solution or something, there will never be peace between the two.
I am an Arab and I agree with your good words
Wallahi I am Palestinian and I agree. Bani israael is mentioned in the Quran. The word israel is just the name of the prophet yaaqoob. Hating Jews is not a good thing. Our ancestors were jewish converts may Allah be pleased with them. Wallah I swear we are brothers we have the same blood and hating each other will never bring peace. Ya Allah unite us again and erase the hatred of Muslims from the jews heart and erase the hatred of jews from the Muslims hearts. End the suffering of Palestinian children 😢 and Israeli children too and save us from the corrupt people of higher ranks o rab ul alimeen. May we find the strength to return to what we were before 1948

Amharic is a southern Semitic language, hence its similarities to Hebrew.
@@ZviJ1
This is tigrinya not amaharic, but you're correct.
Looked like hebrew too much
Also the word "my heart" is the same in Amharic and Hebrew (Libi)...it is also similar in Arabic (Albi/Galbi)...
I would love seeing a quad mix of similarities between all four Semitic languages .
Amharic , Arabic , Hebrew, Aramaic . Can you please do this one , Bahador?
Sure, I'd love to. Just need to find a fluent Aramaic speaker in Toronto who is interested in participating :)
Bahador Alast Check this out and see this link. ua-cam.com/video/xlWKusYj8uU/v-deo.html
YES!!
Did you know that Maltese is the only European semitic language?
@@teddayer6523 Yes, it's close to Lebanese Phoenician as what I know. But it's graded as an Arabic dialect of the once existing Sicilian Arabic.
But over almost a thousand years, it's diaglossal structure has separated heavily from Arabic and is considered a child of Arabic but "not Arabic"
Arabic related closer from Nabatean and even the dialects of Arabic in Bahrain and Mosulwai Arabic in Iraq have intense Assyrian/ Akkadian loanwords.
Can be honest? Aramaic , Akkadian and Assyrian predates Judean and Jewish religion ,so they shouldn't be actually called Semitic . It's like calling the son as the same man's father. Hahaha
As a Malaysian, I could identify a few Arabic words! :) in Malay: Lisan ("oral" as in, oral test), zaman ("period/era" as in, ancient period/era), khinzir ("pig", but mostly used as a politer form of the deragotary word "babi", which also means pig)

@judopathoftruth
I realize that this antisemitic lie helps you cope with your miserable existence, but Judaism is a nationality that includes the Jewish religion, which is the reason why if someone wants to convert to Judaism they must join the Jewish people., and why Judaism was meant to be practiced ideally in the Land of Israel, where the Torah seeks to establish an independent Jewish state. This is, in fact, the ancient Zionism that Judaism is predicated upon.
This is what people in this world should be doing. Having fun not killing each other. But religion and color divided us. Sad.
✌️✌️
Actually politicians divided us. War means money for those at the top who are causing tension between people.
I agree It's unfortunate, because naturally, regardless of colour, race, religion, whatever else...Many have the natural instinct to get on with one another and be human.

Can I know in Arabic..they have word that call ' harfu hijaayah'?..OMG..I don't know how to ask and explain but I do know all the alphabet in Arabic..
I'm a Palestinian Arab and I learned Hebrew when I was 10 years old. They're very similar.
i assume palestine means the west bank?
Why you Jews always gotta make everything political? Jeez.
believe me, i try making is as little political as possible. if i wasnt i would make an entire argument just for that. i asked that to know what palestinians consider palestine because im curious.
How did you learn Hebrew?
I never really intended to learn it. Dad (who works in Israel) taught me the alphabet one day, then I spent a lot of time watching subtitled Hebrew cartoons on the Israeli channels. Found myself speaking it by 10. Lol.
I am Arabic from the southern part of Saudi Arabia, and this video is the reason why I started learning Hebrew. It amazes me how we share a lot of vocab but with different pronunciations. What is even more amazing to me is that the dialect we speak in my region is closer to Hebrew than formal Arabic.
Oh that's really interesting. Are you finding Hebrew hard to learn? I'd like to learn Arabic one day but with so many different dialects I don't which one I'd learn haha
Thats very interesting. Which dialiect do you speak?
@@nattoralikkI’m an Arabic speaker, and I’m not finding Hebrew hard at all. I love the language so much. And as for your question. I am assuming that your Hebrew speaker, so in that case I would recommend you to learn Levantine Arabic which has a lot of similarities to Hebrew. It will make it easier as well. It’s more softer. much love❤️
@@attaueiehehdhsjwksodndhh4980 Awesome to hear you're learning Hebrew and enjoying it! I do want to learn Levantine Arabic at some point, I'm always surprised when I hear people speaking it that I can actually understand a little bit. Think I'll probably give it a go once I've finished with learning Māori.
Hi from Israel ❤
What is amazing to me is how fluent in English you all are. Great video.
It was fun to see the similarities.
Hebrew and Jordanian Arabic have much closer sounding similiarities. Egyptian dialect are different form of Arabic.
It’s actually fascinating to see the similarity between Arabic and Hebrew.
From politics point of view
Iran (hate) ->
But this channel proves it wrong
See Bahador is Iranian
Noa is Hebrew
Sherouk is Egyptian
And their countries dont like each other but thats all politics which came down to the level of people of these countries hating each other but these people seem to enjoy each other
Bahador can make any kind of enemies friends he made a bideo with a serb and albanian an arab with an iranian etc
I think the Iranian government dont hate Israel they never done anything to prove it its just a propaganda
@@alrsaam9
Educate yourself Iran funds anti Israeli groups including Hezbollah and the islamic jihad and in the last year made direct aggressive assaults on Israel from their outposts in Syria.
@@y2k2all Iran has attacked Islamic countries (proxy wars included) more than attacking Israel.. If there is any. Moreover Iran and Israel hating each other in medifa but in fact they live on each other
@@alrsaam9 Sure man. Iran attacking Islamic countries is a fact but on Israel it's "just propaganda". Get on with your life.
Arabic and Hebrew is very similar because the man who "resurrected" the Hebrew language Eliezer ben Yehuda needed to make new words that didn't exist 2000 thousand years ago like umbrella etc. so he used words from other languages like Arabic French and English and more so that made the Hebrew language so similar to other languages.
Do one with the Ethiopian girl and this Israeli girl Please !
Amharic and Hebrew That could be really interesting Too .
The Internet Especially considering the Ethiopian Jews, or Beta Israel (also known as Falashas)
There isn’t really any similarities between them

(by the way both my parents are Persian)
i in 10th grade and now i am not learning Arabic but i learned Arabic in grades 7-9 and there are still kids that learn it in my school.. (it's kind of hard to me to explen this in English but i will try my best- when you go up from 9th to 10th grade there are subjects that you dont have to learn any more and from this subjects you need to select 2 that you are going to keep learning, so some students keep learning Arabic and some dont)
i really think the similarities are amazing!
great idea and video!!

I'm baffled as there are so many dislikes. Why is that? I thought this was both very interesting and very likeable!
Hell, I'm German and I'm not taking sides here at all. I couldn't basically care less about both Israel and the "Arabosphere", but these 2 are some educated and very likeable young ladies who obviously had fun and enjoyed this.
Go linguistics and mutual understanding!
Those who disliked chose to explain themselves mostly in Arabic. The sad but also very human and funny thing about their remarks are how they keep repeating how others are full of hate to everyone.
Seems unlikely. Since the site is full of people writing in Arabic how you should fight and hate all Israelis and all Zionists, (as implied by your post as well) while all the Israelis writing here were happy to see people trying to be friendly to each other, it seems a TEENY BIT more probable that the "Israeli Zionists" DO NOT see themselves as superior to every other race, and that those writing in Arabic and calling others dogs and traitors are the ones who don't like this video. May I ask if you Bala M if you liked it?

Arabs generally hate westerners, americans, christians and jews: Fact
Wow lots of sweeping generalizations and attempts at deflecting and projecting on all sides. A group of Arabic language posts hardly make a majority - of even Arabic speakers who are much more widely diverse than Hebrew speakers worldwide. This thread is not about politics, race, or language - outside of measuring and looking at linguistic similarities which are more than plainly evident as both of these languages are siblings of the Semitic branch (long known since the study of linguistics became a science many years ago). Plus I don’t have time hate filled dispersions from either side nor feel like giving dissertations to the ignorant members of the human race anymore.
I guess it must be because of fascists policies of Israel and denying Palestinians basic right to live....I think this video is beautiful too..one tribe..all r humans
