As the test is in French it might be better to post the English part of your post in French…

Deuxième essai:
Voici un petit quiz de TV5Monde pour vérifier votre connaissance du Maroc. m3a salama.
la ya sahbi ma kan3rafch ikhwanena dial maghrib
Moi j’aurai ecrit de cette façon khassek ta3raf lroumiya chi chwiya mais balak ntoma fel maghrib machi kif kif
I got 8 out of 10 correct. I knew the answer to 7 and guessed the remaining 3, one of which I guessed correctly. The ones I didn’t know were the questions about sport, lipstick and cakes. (of the cakes I only knew one of the names)
maarten - how come you only got 3 right, with your good darija I thought you would be familiar bezzaf with all things Moroccan ??!
Of course
No my friend i don’t know very well my moroccan brothers (because i’m from algeria)
You need to know a bit french, but maybe it’s not same in morocco
rani telmid tqil u -7shuma 3liya - hadi mudda mshit le l-mahgreb. m3a l-2asaf ma kan-3arf-sh had l-blad ki-ma bghit. m3a salama.
(I’m a slow student and I don’t have (make) the time to visit Morocco regularly I’m afraid. Practice makes perfect though: 10/10 on my 7th try so I’m getting there. Rgds mp).

shukran 3la j-jwab dyalek / thank you for your reply
Could you please explain the ki-ma construction; I’m not familiar with this. Thanks.
ki-ma (kif -ma) = like, such as
eg. ki-ma gult-lek = like I told you, ki-ma l’3ada = as usual, ki-ma kate3rf = as you know.
These examples come from a texbook; they’re correct.
In the post above I translated ‘… as I’d like’ as ‘…ki-ma bghit’. I’m not sure if a native Moroccan would use the ki-ma construction here though.
