| Hi everyone I'm Peryhan, and this is Egyptian Arabic weekly words. So let's get started! Today's lesson is about Studying a language, fun fun fun! |
| 1. |
| اسم |
| (ʾeesm) "noun" |
| And we can say, since we're studying Arabic, |
| اللغة العربية كل الأسماء فيها إما مذكرة أو مؤنثة. |
| (ālluġah el-ʿarabeyyah kullu el-ʾasmāʾ fīhā ʾemmā muḏakkarah ʾaw muʾuannaṯah.) |
| "In the Arabic language, all nouns are either masculine or feminine." |
| 2. |
| تعلم |
| (tetʿallam) “to learn" |
| and in the dialect it’s |
| يتعلم |
| (yetʿallem) |
| So for example you can say |
| من السهل إنك تتعلم لغة وإنت صغير. |
| (men el-sahl ʾeennak tetʿallam luġah ūʾenta ṣuġayyar.) |
| "It's easier to learn a language when you're young." |
| 3. |
| حرف |
| (ḥarf) "character" |
| For example you can say |
| لو عايز تتعلم صيني, لازم تعرف أكتر من خَمَسة آلاف حرف. |
| (law ʿāyez tetʿallem ṣīnī, lāzem teʿraf ʾaktar men ḫamash ʾālāf ḥarf.) |
| "If you want to learn Chinese, you need to know more than 5000 characters." |
| 4. |
| درس |
| (dars) "lesson" |
| أنا مفهمتش درس الرياضة بتاع إمبارح. |
| (ʾanā mafhemteš dars el-ryaāḍah betāʿ ʾembāreḥ.) |
| "I didn't understand yesterday's math lesson." |
| 5. |
| صفة |
| (ṣefah) "adjective" |
| As for example you can say |
| الكتاب محتاجين يعرفوا صفات كتير لوصف المشاهد. |
| (ālketāb meḥtāǧīn yeʿrafū ṣefāt ketīr lewaṣf el-mašāhed.) |
| "Writers need to know many adjectives in order to describe the scenes." |
