Uhm, let’s wait and see til we get corrected :^^:

#42

lol yeah it was right !! i’ll think of a new one later (if you’re not bored)

#43

YES please

#44

Yes pliz :slight_smile:

#45

Oops ! sorry for being late :slight_smile:

Put this in the right order:

9 - dazt - lyooma - lewla - 10 - bzzerba - ramadan - f - ayam - w

Lyooma … f … w 10 … … … …

good luck

#46

Oh oh oh, how fun! People back on the forum and new exercises! :ok: Hi ya all!

I’ll guess: Lyooma 9 f ramadan w 10 ayam lewla dazt bzzerba.

I don’t know what it could mean, but tried to make it into something like “At day 9 of ramadan and the 10 days following that…”. Last bit I can’t even properly defend :^^:

#47

u got it right but the translation doesn’t make sense, it translates as following:
Today is Ramadan 9th, & the first 10 days has passed quickly

#48

Haha, I’ll take that as my ears picking up on the Darija sound structures but not yet grasping the meaning :rofl:

Why lyooma, btw (and not lyoom)?

#49

jonquix as far as i know they’re both okay, but i think lyooma is more common with darija. although i’ve also seen lyoom before

#50

Choukran Aweïcha!

Now we need someone who knows their Darija, to have another exercise. Please? :^^:

#51

9raya - mchit - sed9at - lbare7 - makayna - lmedrassa

… … … , … … …

#52

My attempt:
lbare7 mchit lmedrassa, makayna 9raya (?) sed9at (?)

The first part if i’m right i think means, Yesterday I went to the school
the rest I dont know, but makayna i think means, there weren’t

Thanks Mad btw, for opening this thread again.

#53

ok the fisrt part is right … work on the 2nd one

ps- la chokra 3ala wajib

#54

lbereH mchit n medrassa, sed9at makeyna qraya
yesterday I went to school ??? there is no study / lessons / clases (in spanish)

I don’t know what it means sedqat. I imagine it’s: but or yet. I suppose it’s yet because the present tense of the verb: makainchi.

#55

sed9at is for result

ti9a weld sde9 mafih nass kays7abni kan

… … … … , … … …

#56

Hard to me… My doubts:

Weld --> Son in 3arubia pronunciation :devil: ?
Kays7bni --> he is friendly with someone?
sdeq --> results for the masculin?

#57

wled nass = son of gud ppl
kays7abni = i think as Ouaz said, befriended me
kan = was
mafih = has not (?)
ti9a = trust
right so far?

I think it can be:
wled nass kan kays7abni, sde9 mafih ti9a

right ???

#58

GiGi
urs was good lol i was thinking about ‘’ kan kays7abni weld nass , sde9 mafih ti9a ‘’
but yeah as u know in arabic we can play a lot with words positions

about kays7abni , in fact it is ‘‘kay7sabni’’ but some moroccans ( w ana menhom biensur ) just change the order of the S and 7
and they have the same meaning ====> i was thinking , s7abni (aka 7sabni ) = i thought

#59

I did it :okay:
Yeah, I forgot the abc in translation is that english starts with noun, while arabic usually starts with verb (that’s wut DL was talkin’ about…7choma 3lya :$)

Alright Mad, what about another one?
:slight_smile:
