Eastern vs Egyptian Arabic I use a program called Pimsleur which offers only those two dialects of Arabic. I would like to know which one is the best for me to learn. Which one is more widely understood in the Arabic world. While learning a dialect I would also be learning Modern Standard & Arabic the alphabet.& the Arabic alphabet sorry.

Do you ever think in the language you are learning? Sometimes I find myself thinking in the language I am attempting to learn. I don't necessarily mean while you are conversating. When you just started learning the language, naturally you are going to translate in your mind before you speak. I am talking about when you are doing nothing, or something and it just pops up out of nowhere in your head. It can range from a few simple words to a few phrases, or maybe even conversations in that language. All in in all my point is do this happen to you, because it surely does happen to me.....and I like it. I feel like I'm progressing, like I'm starting to get somewhere. Anyway, that's all i wanted to say....Até logo, Au Revoir, Adiós, Auf Wiedersehen, Arrivederci, 再见, さようなら, αντίο, Vale....Goodbye

Portuguese Speakers...Saudade Portuguese speakers with a good knowledge of English, can you explain this word? How should it be used? When should you use it? Is it like mourning or missing someone?

why do most of ya'll ignore us? This especially goes to the women when we send request to you. Some of us are really here trying to learn and most of you don't want help. You think just because we are men we only want to do other things...not true...atleast not here. You choose not to respond to us making it harder. Yes, we do like learning from women it keeps us interested.
