Hello SM students :^^: it occured to me to prepare this exam so you can have fun testing your Darija skills…
well…i aint sure how ur supposed to do it, i mean to post answers here, or send me a PM or… :unsure:

well…one thing i know, don’t u dare copy from SM home page lessons :fouet:
& do not post answers to this thread :no:

EDIT:
It would be better if you send me your answers in a PM, so that others won’t copy your answers from here…
NO DEADLINEs for the mean time.
