[quote=mimi246]thanks for pointing that out, i wasn’t sure whether to put it there or not.
i’m not so hot when it comes to writing out what i say lol

i’m not sure how to put this one together
i know a7sn means favorite and ba7r means beach

ash ala7sn ba7r fa almghrab lik?

eh :hm:[/quote]
I would like to correct you on that one a3ezz means favourite, f.e: a3ezz oukla 3andi hiya seksou My favourite food is cous cous
shett means beach ba7r means sea f.e: l3abna lkora 3la shett leb7ar, we played soccer on the beach I know the word b7ar is there but it’s not referring to beach but sea
other example: setyam o7na mwadrin felb7ar, we were lost in the sea for six days

In your question however which is a very understable question the meaning is:
What is in your opinion the best sea in Morocco.
If you would’ve asked, ina b7ar 3andek a3ezz b7ar felmaghreb? Which sea is your favourite sea in Morocco.
That would be more correct.

Darija is difficult because if I wanted to ask about the beach if he/she answers: Agadir is my favourite sea which sounds crazy in English but in darija is correct.
I would ask:
shett leb7ar n9i shwia? or, ramla n9ia shwia?
Which means is the beach clean? or second question, is the sand clean?
there’s even a difference in ordinary sand and sahara or beach sand trab is ordinary ramla is beach or sahara sand lghays is mud.

whoa, thanks man, never knew that stuff :slight_smile:

Don’t worry about it, your more then welcome ;).
