Jordan Rural Homestay: Interview about speaking Arabic during a World Learning SIT study abroad summer program

[A87AM]

ummm it depends actually to the country like here in Saudi Arabia lots if not most people can speak Fos'ha very well..

but he's right lots of people find it hard to speak in the old Arabic coz they didn't used to it

it's really different than other languages, the Amiya isn't similar to the Fos'ha it's not only about the words, but many things r different

[moehuneidi]

That is why i think they should be teaching at least some 3amiya dialects in american colleges/universities!....but did u enjoy the trip i am thinking of doing it this year, so what did u think?
