........................

I have a friend who has lots of friends in Morocco .. and decided to learn Arabic as he'd been invited out to visit. He learnt Standard Arabic then found when he got there that he couldn't always understand what people were saying. This is because spoken Arabic in Morocco is a bit different from Standard Arabic.


He gave up but is just about to have another go.

The Madina videos are about Modern Standard Arabic which is the written form of Arabic which nearly everyone in the Arabic World will understand, will be similar to the various dialects and is the main written form.
