Taliyya saysTue 2nd Dec 08@10:43 pmVery useful conversation. A few questions. What was the phrase Morrocans use if they don't know a person? I thought I heard "Muhammad" or something like that. Also if you're invited and you want to compliment the host's food, how do you say that? -
If they don't know somebody then they sometimes call them 'Si Muhammad'. Where 'Si' is short for 'Sidi' in Moroccan Dialect, which is 'sayyedy' in proper Arabic which means Sir/Mr
-
Thanks. I was thinking maybe Muhammad and Ehab could do a dialogue about going to the dentist. Using words like cavity, fillings, root canals and things like that. I just went to the dentist and came up with the idea.

This seems to be the right level for me! I am enjoying the course very much.
-
All very beautiful.
Are you guys thinking of adding speaking exercies in the future? I thought that would be loads of fun! -
Great website!! I just wish I could more easily tell which new words are Fousah and which are more colloquial (and if they are colloquial, which dialect?)
-
Hi everyone,
I just want to ask why there ب stands before the verb يخلص ?
What meaning does it make in the expression? -
@frhn, when this letter attaches to the beginning of a present tense verb, it indicates a present continuous. This is used a lot in colloquial. For example:
يأكل - He eats
بيأكل - He is eating
يلعب - He plays
بيلعب - He is playing
