How does the negative form for "forget" and does this apply to all verbs?
Hi! I've just ran into this in a book. I copy paste laHdha. nasaytii al-mawza. lah-zah. nah-say-tee al-maw-zah.
One moment. Don’t forget the banana. How does the negative form for "forget" and does this apply to all verbs? I see no لا

In the sentence the translation is : "You forgot the banana!" so you just inform her... so don't need to use "la".

You don't have to confuse yourself about which dialect you should learn. Some prefer Egyptian dialect, some prefer others. Each dialect will be in general understood to other Arabic speakers.
You should choose one yourself and what is more important is to find the right way or the right one that can help you learning it.
If you need any help with Egyptian dialect, would be pleasure to help you :)
Good luck !

In Standard Arabic to put the verb in negative imperative mood you should put :
لا = la + the verb (in present)
all verbs the same rule.

Thank you for the elaborated answer! I study the standard arabic. I've downloaded the michel thomas course which is egyptian i believe. It is very different from the arabic I study. I feel confused right now as there are so many dialects and i have no idea what to lean anymore. Which is the most understood of them all?
