Great, you talked about auditory comprehension on the distinctive sound. I compiled my thesis on that.

Not true MG, my husband is from a small city in Egypt and he writes and speaks beautifully, whereas I have met with and spoken with some from Alex and Cairo and the English was ZIFT while some were GREAT with their English. I think it depends on the education more than where they are from (and perhaps how often they are able to practice).

Egyptians are very quick learners - if they want to. I was always impressed by the guys who work in the tourism industry. Many of them speak very well German, Russian, Italian, English. I know language skills enhancing very much how business is flowing but still ..... two thumbs up!

I am pulling my hair out learning Arabic. I am in stage 2. But this masculine and feminine language is getting to me. Yes I know continental countries have masculine and feminine incorporated into the language more so than the English language...BUT I still find it hard....
