DARIJA Transcription Introduction: Moroccan Arabic or the Regia is influenced by the Standard Arabic baby language. French and Spanish. Because of the influence of the French and Spanish culture in the Moroccan one, due to the historical events happened between France, Spain, and Morocco in the 20th century. Now, we will see some examples of words coming from French and Spanish. Gather Indonesia, we say garage. You can see there is a slight difference in pronunciation of the letter. Are we pronounce it Indonesia? Instead of in French language format. From Indonesia, we say ma. We have also a Spanish word, radon. Radon. Indonesia. We use the same word with the same pronunciation and the same meaning. Moroccans, windy send text messages to each other. There is a minority who use the standard Arabic alphabet. And the majority use Latin alphabet. And as it is known in the Standard Arabic, we have more cells comparing, for example, to English, Spanish, or French. Because the standard Arabic is so rich. Concerning sounds in there is how we use the same sounds as in the standard Arabic. So we cannot represent all the sums with the Latin alphabet. You already know. This is why represent those new sounds we use. For example, K, G, H, 7392. Don't worry if you do not understand all what I am seeing now, just keep watching. In the next video, I am explaining those new sounds with examples and step-by-step pronunciation. See you in the next video. 3.

I see I see. I see moon. It's like the rooster sound. If you want to practice papa, papa, papa Sue, sue. The number 2. It marks a stop. For example, in the word Bihar. So this is just used to make a stop. So you said sorry. Yeah. Yeah. Sue and Sue and Sue. Ela. Ela 4. Other Useful Sounds To Know: The letter I. The letter I is pronounced like the letter E in English. For example. Still sin t, Lu, still. Dino De La, dina, Kadima. Dina De Ma, which means old city. And it is also called the medulla sound. Indonesia is represented by C and H, like a first language. Why? Because the way we write using Latin letters is influenced by French language. Share RecA. Reca Artesia. Artesia. Key. The letter J is pronounced like in the word pleaser, pleaser. Jar, Jar, Jar. The sound, the equivalent of this sound, Indonesia is you and I. We, we yarn. We are we. When. We have also the sound oo, for example, which means rule. Set. Hi. For example, if you want to say 20 to Indonesia, you will say name. Name. Name with the letter C is not really used in the region. For example, in English or French, the letter C has two sounds. The sound like in the word cinema, and the sound like in the word camera. Indonesia. For the first sound like cinema, we use the letter S. And for the second sound, like in camera, we use the letter X is like it has a composed sound, k and S. For example, CDA. Cda, which means accident. Instead of writing x, will write K and S. 5. Hi - Good Morning - Good Evening: If you want to say, for example, hi or hello, you can say Salaam, sol la salam or seller more alley come. So LA lay calm. Seller Moore, I lay calm.

So we don't need the verb to be. And you can also say instead of snow, you can say rational as snow, the snow Smith deck. And you can answer for example, in my case, my name is why we say, which means I am highland. The equivalent words in English for a noun is I and me. Okay?

The same thing for an deck and und Dann do, which is different compared to English. 20. Feminine Form In DARIJA: To have a feminine noun or adjective. The general rule is that you add the later.

For example, some body parts. Region, which means food, is a feminine word. But we don't have a in the end. Which means house. For example, I can say dark.
