I am teaching you the whole conjugation and usage of the very to be in the past tense. if you have any questions or doubts please comment or send me a message.
Thank you Jacobo Hijazin for being my NO1 DJ :):)
Love your videos! I was watching them while I was living in Hebron!! :) The dialect posed a bit of a challenge, but I am loving learning MSA side by side with Palestinian Arabic. I would love to have more lessons like this one, with more verbs or with a lesson on sentence structure or connecting verbs. Thank you soooo much. I get daily practice with my boyfriend who is from Hebron. Thank you for everything!
Maha a great lesson for me will be how to make difference between long vowel and short vowel.
I can understand standard arabic by 80 %, but I still have problem when It comes to write vowel (or not to write short vowel).
Thanks by the way
I love to watch your arabic lessons it's so easy to catch up ,thank you stay safe
Damn... I don't know how many times people here on youtube or anywhere else said to you that you are beautiful and lovely but I still say, for me not only you are beautiful but your voice works like a therapy, it just melts me down... Keep posting videos, shukran ;).
Arabic reading and writing I would say is not complicated at all. Write things as they sound, and read things as they are written and you can't really go wrong. Not like in English!!
Verb conjugation in Arabic is much easier then in Hebrew I see. Hebrew is very complex in that regard.
@92559255able
just add (sin) ســـ to the present tense verbs
for example:
I play : ألعب (al3ab) becomes سألعب (sa'al3ab) : i will play
she eats : تأكل (ta'kul) becomes ستأكل (sata'kul) : she will eat
they go: يذهبون (yathhaboon) becomes سيذهبون (sayathhaboon) : they will go
nothing more :)
Hello Maha ! Thank you for all these nice lessons !
I would like you to make a video about the pronunciation of ayn in a word where ayn is not vocalised, I have a lot ot troubles to pronounce to word "institute" in arabic. I would be very glad if you make a video where you explain how to pronounce ayn in a word where ayn doesn't have a short vowel. Shoukran jaziilan yaa Maha !
@Ann2808fl antum = you (plural for boys) Antunna = you (plural for girls) Hum = they (Plural for boys) Hunna = they (plural for girls)
your a great Arabic teacher and you speak the language so well and the way you speak it too sounds so beautiful! you and your voice making arabic the beautiful language it is. It is a pleasure to learn from you. :) in your videos you talk about practice exercises and i still cannot find where they are? i tried to go to edufire and couldnt find? how can i get a one on one extra tutoring class that you offer and how much does it cost? is it skype? or are there downloads?
I'm trying to catch up on my learning just subscribed 2 weeks ago ;) Your a good teacher!
Love your work Maha!!
wish you the best

@sandinotheturtle90 There is the temporal one in Arabic but not the other, so there is stare in the present tense (يكون) but not essere in the present tense (which is omitted in Arabic). In the past tense both become كان
Thank you for this enlightening lesson. You taught "kana" exceptionally well. Can you please tell me what "yakoonu" means ? Mashkoor jiddan.
i like it when she said its easier than English, lol Arabic is one of the worlds most complicated languages so its not easy
grazie a te Maha! tu sei molto brava
@waled22002 she meant to say english has 16 tenses , Arabic only 3 , arabic is easier in this regard then english ..
maha and what about "present perfect progressive tense", how would you manage to say "I've been studying english for ten years" which means that you are still doing it at present. By the way, your lessons are awsome !!!
انا اريد ان ادرس اللغة العربية من جديد يا احلى معلمة بالدنيا .........................

@aboood578 she made a video where she answered the question.
She is a palestinian from Palestine 48
if I want to ay I was living with my mom do I put living in past tense too? ana kuntu askun? or ana kuntu sakantu ?
no brother . it's Anti in formal Arabic . because we also "palestinians" use the " Enti " thing . which is not formal . accents :)
Omg You are good Teacher, i like you! :)
Great lesson. TY. Am I correct that "kana" means "was or to be" and "yakoonu" means "is or am" ??
hello Maha... my name is Oscar from Colombia... iwanna tell you are really great, fantastic,, bye
hey maha im syrian and i would like to know what country u r from, im not discriminating, i love all arabs, and also u r christian arab right, again dont get me wrong i have christian friends but i would like to know...
Hey, Maha! I am studying arabic and in the grammar books I am using, after fii noun is in genative. So it would become 2ana kuntu fii l-madrasi. Or it is correct to use acussative case as you do?
@kursia786 Is the ESL job market in the United States expected to grow in the coming years? Thanks for your input!
