And also: 'tishrab ayh?' (What would you like to drink?) and 'amil ayh?' (How are you?) So I think the spoken language is very different from the standard Arabic and it depends in what region you are.

Someone has just repeated the standard Arabic recording eventhough the colloquial Arabic is spelled out. This is a gross error. Can this not be corrected? Thanks, Woody Dear Arabic Linguist,

Unfortunately, the coloquial Arabic for this lesson, and for previous lessons, is incorect. Someone has just repeated the standard Arabic recording eventhough the colloquial Arabic is spelled out. This is a gross error. Can this not be corrected?

Thanks,

Woody

How do you say "What's your name?" in Egyptian Arabic? Also, I have been hearing "anaa kaman" for "me, too," not "anaa ayDan." Is the former a regional variation?
