יש כאן דוברי עברית? בעיקרון r/Israel_bm וסרוגים הן שתי הקהילות הכי גדולות אז הייתי מניחה שגם פה יהיו

(Or maybe Israeli/Palestinian Arabic?)

      Hello hello! 👋🏻 Lebanon? (Dunno why “Lebanon” came up, could be Syria, go figure)

      Always nice to meet people from near.

      *My Arabic is worse than a two years old’s, or I’d try.

        Syria indeed! I haven’t been home since 2010 though.

        No need to excuse your Arabic haha, I don’t speak a lick of Hebrew (yet?), and my own Arabic is probably at the proficiency level of an 8 year old.

        I live in the UK and am very passionate about learning languages. I’m working on my 5th - Chinese.

          Oh, fair enough, yeah. With the new regime, will you return - or at least, visit? Things seem hopeful there, despite everything.

          Love languages as well - I speak English and Hebrew, and learning Arabic and German because I have to. Gotta love multiculturalism, hehe

          Btw, I’ll have to warn you that if you’re planning on learning Hebrew, it is only similar to Arabic in the fact that it is a semitic language. Most of the vocabulary is completely different, the only similarity is in how it comstructs words. But it is very much simpler than Arabic, hehe.

      Evra ca’Edabra muhaha

      My Yiddish is probably worse than yours (that is, doesn’t exist much really)—it’s actually a full fledged language that split from Proto High German.

          No no Yiddish is written in Hebrew letters, and is an Indo-European, Germanic language Hebrew is written in Hebrew letters, and is a semitic, Canaanite language. What I sent is אברא כאדברה, which means “I shall create as I speak” in Hebrew and Aramaic, which is what Abra Kadabra came from.
