Hi Ryan, In ECA we usually use the verb ( جا - يجيي ) which means "to come" in verbal phrases as following: I came late = أنا جيت متأخر . ( first person, singular, perfect) He comes always late = هو دايما يجيي متأخر (third person, singular, masculine, imperfect) I'm coming = أنا جاي (active participle, singular, masculine) / أنا جاية (active participle, singular, feminine) / إحنا جايين (active participle, plural)

Hi, no idea. I 'm a new learner like you. Can you share your method. I 'm learning Arabic with Assimil, and its working prety good.

ofc u'll find alot of entries in dictionary the most proper and come one if u want to speak standard arabic is : قادم come/coming : قادم و ايضا آتي for the Egyptian dialogue its : * جاي* This is it hope this helps ^^

Of course you can find many different entries and the same in English. Such as in example you have given I am coming = I am on my way I am coming = أنا سآتي but this in standard Arabic (fusha) I am coming = أنا جاي on streets of Egypt I think I can help you more if you write what you have found in the dictionary.
