Ahlan 3bd Al-7ameed;
Nice translation, you do well in terms of specifying the feminine and masculine words, but the general translation needs improvement. If you are using a software to help you in translating, I would say it is a good idea but you still need to verify the words yourself so you gain more experience.
بالتوفيق

Between about 6:00 and 6:30 you have a discussion about the word "lughat-ha" and the possessive on the end of the word. But, in the dialogue you say it as "lughat-HA" whereas when you are talking about the word and you're pronouncing it by itself, you say "lughat-UHU." It was unclear to me why you pronounced the possessive pronoun in these two different ways.

Charlotte,, shokran for your contribution;
First, it is grammar. In Arabic, the position of the word makes huge difference in the way you say it.
In the sentence, Lo3'atah is Maf3ool bihi (object) while when I pronounced it (6:00-6:30) Lo3'atuhu it was a single word, and when you pronounce single words it does not matter how you say it,, what controls the 7araka ( َ ِ ُ ) is the position in the sentence.
That now would open your eyes on new big area in Arabic,, keep it up with Arabicpod.net and one day you will get familiar with such things inshallah.

From a long time I wanted to study arabic, the work you are doing it's great, I'm a mexican and speack spanish and some english, I will take the challenge by taking arab in english, THANKS!!!

excellent....i really enjoyed

Thanks guys, this was one of the clearest, best lessons yet! Repetition of words, clear dicton, useful explanations of gramatical concepts!

Assalaam aleikum,listening to your podcasts has become my routine.Thanks for giving me the joy of learning Arabic,my teachers.

Btw,I would like to ask something.at 2:06,Ehab is talking about the word'lima'da' and 'leesh'and it makes me wonder about how are all Arabic comments on the internet.Are they classical?Even if they are between close friends like facebook or something?

I would be appriciate if someone gave me a explanation about this.

@Kurumi, very good question. To be honest, from my experience the majority of the people write in colloquial to close family and friends on facebook etc. However, there are some that write classical, and more so in public forums etc.

Shukran for your explanation,Moshaya.So it seems that that way is very similar to Japanese people's use on the internet.Maybe are there many honorific expressions too?
Well,I'm not on that stage yet.At the time,I am just inputting as much as possible and enjoying the meaning of sentences getting clearer.
I really love your teaching method. Oh my son,5 years old,started to sing "Barney I love you'!!

Lovely lesson, thank you. I tend to like it better when there are not so many people around, they tend to distract me from the main lesson. Today you went just to the point and my learning was fantastic. Thank you.

Hi everybody! I really like what you are teaching 😊
