Arabic VS. Hebrew (Happy and Sad)

[sweetyvany99]

@LearnArabicWithMaha

In Hebrew,

'Ani sameyyakh' means literally not "I'm happy", it actually means "I'm looking forward to it".

وشكرا.

[vonlathen12]

are you an arabs or italian??

[arlyns23]

shukran Maha!!!!! I love it! I'm practicing alone and I sound perfect, but when I speak to an Arabic speaking person for some reason I don't sound the same lol

[irfand4]

Why does one say "Li-anna-hu sa'eed" for He is happy and not "Huwa sa'eed" ? Kindly clarify this point.

[thushara255]

i like ur presentation very much.....



[xi2chen]

Shalom Maha! 1st I would like to say thanks for teaching Hebrew and Arabic!! What is the name of the song that plays at the start and end this video??

Thanks and Lehitra'ot!

[GeorgiaPeach87]

BEAUTIFUL HAIR!!

[Dzongka]

Hebrew pronunciation seems a bit easier because of the absence of "ayn".

[WinkyMaeve]

it is pretty sad that even on good videos people are still saying which language is better...

[chaosbringer127]

@snackster27

other way around, hebrew sounds like arabic that has been shit on

hebrew is the most disgusting language ever created

[OmarAlQaseer]

Thanks for putting Arabic and Hebrew together. It's a really cool language comparison, and emphasizes the idea these languages are very much related. Don't pay any attention to all the haters.

[ayseraltaee1]

If you are christian would you plz say the meaning also in Assyrian . will be nice in arabic , hebrew , assyrian , plus english

[geeknoel500]

Brilliant Maha. I am happy learning both Hebrew and Arabic. Noel x x

@sammyn06c palestine

[JosherForder]

I prefer the true blue Biblical phonology not this modern corruption.

[elchami743]

@JosherForder Then I suppose you prefer the old english too

[eltigreoso]

[hakeem89968]

[jo0jo090]

Love your video's !! mshallah astamerri maha ;)

and i was wondering whats the name of the song at the beggining ?! :)

[rusakjewboy41]

I'm a Russian Jewish boy from Germany and can speak a little bit Arabic (mostly bad words), because i have got a lots of Arabic friends and in Germany are living a lots of Arabs. I can speak even better Arabic than Hebrew...

[MrE1575]

please continue teaching hebrew i'm learning 

[elinaesh]

I never thought that someone would make a video like this. I'm of hebrew origin and I love Arabic.

[NuniiTuck]

Nouns and verbs ! xD

Thankssss !!! ;**

[surgerryy]

Looove your videos. Arabic and Hebrew both sound cool. You should teach always teach us the words in Arabic, Hebrew AND Italian :)

شــــــكــــــرا جــــــزيــــــلا

[lolilola555]

I love the music you put at the beginning and at the end of the video can you please pass me the link shoukraaannnee! :)

[marcelino12vide]

you're clever, Maha!

[QueenSahperia]

Wow, you know alot of languages! You must be very, very intelligent!

[SabaeanYared]

arabic and hebrew, both the most beautiful languages i think

[minimum13]

@SabaeanYared Hebrews is not pretty, it's too harsh.

[konjarac]

How do you say in Hebrew monotheist? (Thanks for your answer)

[tFighterPilot]

@konjarac monotheist in Hebrew is monotheist...

[SabaeanYared]

@tFighterPilot ...how is that possible...monotheist is greek origin...

[labartic]

I didnt realize how much I disliked both of these languages until now.

[blahman123x]

what a horrible accent lol

[sbccfresh2]

You should make another channel called LearningHebrewwithMaha

[coolrefreshingdude]

jazak Allah, you are doing "Sadqa-e-Jaria"

[PanzerN9Ne]

Anyone know the name of the badass song she uses in the intro?

[ilovemyhaters69]

masha allah u are CUTE

[MRSNAGGLETUBE]

Thank you for the videos Maha. Its very enjoyable to learn by watching you, good job!

[172km]

Maha... thanks for this... but I'm not sure if Hebrew comparisons are needed (?) I subscribe to you to learn Arabic not Hebrew... learning Arabic is hard enough for me (!) language comparisons are interesting sometimes but these were just the Hebrew equivalents... ie you could have compared to ... French? Afrikaans? i didn't see anything really interesting in the example... you could have taught me at least 2 more Arabic words in the same amount of time... just a thought..

[hitlaparodiez]

@NotAG4yName uhm, iranians arent arabs, by the way

[Nezeo]

@LearnArabicwithMaha You go girl!

[cynthia4122]

i hate that happy in arabic sounds like sad in english... :S

[RealityHurts923]

Is it weird that I'm Mexican and learning Arabic?

[justanotheriraqi]

@RealityHurts923 Is it weird that im Iraqi learning Spanish? No lol embrace other cultures and languages, you gain more knowledge that way! Well done and good luck!!

[Elthiopia]

@RealityHurts923 Try being an ethiopian trying to learn arabic and chinese. So what you're doing is totally not weird.

[alkantre]

Please make more videos like this where you present Arabic and Hebrew vocabulary items side by side.

[Tarek7b]

lol mahdome =)

[Deviad]

I Maha, is everything ok over there? I was listening like an incoming air strike allarm near the end of the video.

Regards,

Davide

[LearnArabicwithMaha]

@Deviad Its the gardener:)

[Deviad]

@LearnArabicwithMaha

Ah OK. :D

Sometimes I'm paranoid. :P

[IWENTHOME2010]

@LearnArabicwithMaha LOL!



[Kryptsanies]

@Deviad HAHAHA very good

[Academic1Researcher]

@Deviad Haha you stereotypical douche.

[vespabagoel]

Are you maha muhammad abul illa

[neroodio]

aiutooooo!! parla più lenta, altrimenti non capisco! :)

come mai quando parli italiano sei più lenta?

[TheEva4ever]

what is your facebook address? and what is the name of this song? Thank you very much for teaching us. I love arabic!

[Ramo2189]

Great teacher, awesome videos, and I want to learn but it's so hard because I'm so easily distracted by your beauty.

[CaliforniaRollll]

maha ho appena visto il video intervista che hai fatto con radio 105 e sono veramente indignata. Tu sei una persona così brava ed educata come hai fatto a fare un'intervista con un tale idiota....

[alr3odi]

Thank you Mahaaa

[Roxyy1995]

How many languages do you know?! :P ♥ (i speak: english, french and romanian!)

[raurino]

Ciao Maha sono uno studente di arabo e seguo sempre le tue lezioni. Volevo farti una critica costruttiva: cerca di concentrarti su una lingua sola quando fai un video, magari fai un video dedicato all'arabo ed uno dedicato all'ebraico sennò si crea un sacco di confusione :x

Ma3 salamah!

[anezis]

i dislike look of hebrew letters lol...they look soo weird- actually i know it's not funny when i say this but they always remind me of swastikaXD ,,,,arab letters so nice and cute and romantic lookin <3

[alfonso2501]

you should include Italian as well.

[rami007002]

peace and love

[carladaisybee1983]

loveee ur nailpolish! what kind & colour is it

[arivas713]

****RANDOM QUESTIONS! ive been told that arabic is not one vast monolithic language, but more a language continuum stretching from syria to morocco to sudan and that a syrian travelling to morrocco cannot possibly understand morroccan arabic. ive also been told it is because they dont speak 'proper' arabic or MSA i guess my question is how many arabic languages are there? and were is MSA NATIVLEY spoken? is it in arabia or do they speak their own language? is it like latin and romance Languages?

[pinkpumpkinn]

@arivas713 Yes that is true, there are many different dialects and some of them are not that mutually intelligible. For example, people who come from the GUlf or something would have a hard time understanding a Moroccan person. And I don't think MSA is really spoken natively anywhere. I mean maybe there are some places where they speak something very similar, but MSA is basically just the Arabic you would see written in books and things like that.

[maysoona99]

where is the link to your other channel?

[Lingiard]

Great video, as usual!

By the way, was someone practicing yoga in the background?

Heard the OM a couple of times.

[peace01072]

ive been learning hebrew for a long time...and just started learning arabic

[jason0998]

Arabic sounds better than Hebrew :)

[LetsKillHipHop]

@jason0998 that's only because she's saying it

[jalloul55]

your so gorgeous and a great teachers. smallah lol

[sithsombra]

A christian arabic gal teaching hebrew? lol, what a oasis in a mad world...marvelous!

[alslme11]

الرسول صلى الله عليه وسلم امر احد اصحابه بدراسة لغة اعدائة وذلك لمعرفة لغة العدو ومعرفة بماذا هم يخططون وكذلك لخطط استراتيجيه كثيره

فهذه فكره جيده لمعرفة لغة العدو

ولكن لي سؤال لصاحبة القناه الحلوه

ماشاء الله كم لغه تتحدثين

اللي اعرفه للحين انك تتحدثين العربيه والانجليزيه والايطاليه والان العبريه

فهل هناك من مفاجأت اكثر؟

[jmbpastor]

Is this true?

I was told that modern Hebrew did away with most of not all of the pharyngeal (deep/harsh) gutteral sounds...

Any comments?

[angryafghan]

@jmbpastor No, the consonants have not changed so radically, rather the vowel system has undergone changes possibly due to influence from Yiddish or European languages.

[AysarAburrub]

מבטא מזרחי לנצח חחח

אני באמת חושב שערבים במיוחד חייבים לדבר במבטא המקורי

מיום נולדנו אנחנו יכולים לבטא את הקולות הקשים האלה, ואז למה לא להשתמש בהן?

תודה על השיעור מהא!!

[TheAmbitious10]

@AysarAburrub  يا اخي لغتكم شكلها نمل صاف ع بعض لووووووول

[pinkpumpkinn]

@AysarAburrub גם אני אוהבת את המבטא המזרחי! אבל אני לא רוצה לדבר ככה כי החברים הישראלים שלי יצחוקו עליי חחח

[GJB1993]

Very interesting video!

Btw, to give you help with that english word, it's 'modernity', but I was very impressed with how you knew how to use different endings to form nouns from adjectives in English!

[brichi07]

Thank you Maha!

[BaZoOKeT]

she is so cute!

[sithsombra]

@BaZoOKeT She's not ''cute'' she's gorgeous.

[froggymicwop]

@sithsombra she's cute, hot, gorgeous, physically attractive as well as a multitude of other things

[happybunnysmiles]

@sithsombra She's so hideous!

[FRYrebecky]

This is only standard Arabic right?

[floweriepot]

how did you learn hebrew?

[SupositoryRepository]

I'm neither Arab nor Jew, but I prefer al logha 3rabe for reasons given in this video. Modern Hebrew has thrown away a lot of the original Semitic consonants like 7eth & replaced it with KHAA. No offense, but it makes the language sound really ugly. Arabic flows and sounds much more pretty.

I've heard some Yemeni Jews speaking Hebrew and it sounds a little bit more like Arabic. I actually think Ofra Haza sounds pretty. It's funny how Israelis make fun of Yemeni Hebrew, it's actually way prettier

[angryafghan]

@SupositoryRepository I have to say I agree with that, I don't find Modern Hebrew attractive as a language for this very reason.

[angelinha82]

Thanks Maha! I really love your comparative teaching for these two languages, it looks like the best way to concretely memorize concepts :D

[shimmygirl75]

Hi Maha,

What is the difference between ana saed and ana Said (place in Egypt)? Is the difference in pronunciation or spelling? This confuses me.

[spa000sil]

@shimmygirl75

Saeed , with ' س seen' سـعيـد means happy ........

'Saeed, whith '' ص 'sad' صــعيد means the region in Egypt ....

seen is pronouned like the normal 's' in english, but 'sad' doesnt exist in english. its sort of sounds like a very heavy 's' ...

[thehypnoticbeauty]

the quality of your camera is great !

[surrected4526]

Wonderful!

[coolsteven2]

Are the two languages that similar?

[TheSharen42]

@coolsteven2 yes

[Jijou3]

@coolsteven2 theyre both semitic

[AysarAburrub]

@coolsteven2 yes very similar, and if you know one of them well, it's very easy to reach an intermediate level in the other in a short amount of time. But i think Arabic->Hebrew is quicker and easier than the other way around. Arabic, especially MSA or Classical Arabic is more complicated than Modern Hebrew. and the fact that modern hebrew doesn't have dialects, only accents, unlike Arabic with its many different dialects.

[furess]

AWESOME !

[Hans021220]

Great aqs always!

[poliglotta80]

Dear Mahra, sei bella e brava :-) Ti volevo dire che se un giorno imparerò l'arabo (ed è sulla lista, fra 2 anni dovrei cominciare :-)) mi guarderò tutti i tuoi video. Una domandina..per caso mi puoi dire che videocamera usi? Anche io ne vorrei comprare una per migliorare la qualità della mia produzione qui su Youtube :-) Take care! Luca

[harrignos]

is the old Het pronounced like.. a sort of deep, hissing "H" sound? I'm trying to figure out how to pronounce it.. as well, I can't make sense of the old Ayin.

[gus305]

Maha Where do you stay ???

[Nony993]

لما تٌدرسين العبرية؟  ألستِ فلسطينية ؟

[AysarAburrub]

@Nony993 لا يوجد خطأ أو عيب في دراسة العبرية، بل على العكس دراستها مهمة وبالتحديد للفلسطينيين. وأنا أيضا فلسطيني وأدرس العبرية.

[truevoiceofsanity]

this is so cool. salem and shalomb. ;).

[AZstarwatcher]

nice? mean? I could look them up but I remember more by watching you.

[MaiDireGialappa]

=) Maha !!

[MaGiLo90]

Great lessons as always Maha (By the way, love your name)!! Thank you so much! ^^

[WindowsBooster]

I love both languages.
