INTRODUCTION

The central aim of this Arabic version of Yalla Ndhardish bi


-
Lt-atabi is essentially tlie same as that of the English version: to present the
basics of Egyptian Colloquial Arabic speakers'to students and to provide
them with adequate and functional exercises in order to enable them to
speal< and understand Egyptian Colloquial Arabic in the shortest possible
tirne.
Horvever, the Arabic version was conceived as a flieans of
facilitating this task for students who irad already taken some Arabic at the
Lrnrversity level and wito . were therefore already farniliar with certain
aspects of the literarl'( Fusha ) language. It was feltthat in the case of these
students, much tirne and effort could be saved when the Egyptian
Colloquial langrrage vvas presented in a form already recognizable to-the6,
Indeed, due to the cotnmon rnorphological basis shared by the literary and
colloquial langr"rages, presentation in fuabic script could afford immediate
recognition of vocabr.rlary and other syntactic features. Thus, for example,
the student could recognize that "dawa" (medicine) ,,13r,, was masculine (not
feminine) as it way sound, and tl-rerefore required a masculine modifier or
predicate nominative, i.e. "( *-x ljr "J " -yllJr-ll ',The word,s derivation
fiom the ftlsha olrJ is also easily recognizable). Similary, recognition. of
verb fonns (ie. I, IV, VIII ... etc) would come quicker and easier. It w.as in
ptu'sr.tit of advantages such as these that we decided to have Yalla rendered
into Arabic script instead of transliteration.
However, since at its origin the Arabic script was not devised to suit
the needs of Egyptian Colloquial, there are certain limitations that
accolnpany its use. Particular among, these is the problern of certain vowei
sottnds and combinations not found in fusha as well-as the spirantization of
certain consents in the colloquial langrrage. Thus, for example, in reality
therc is no way of represer-rting the colloquial word for 'voice' in Arabit
script. The word " or* "is only an approximation since the word is acfually
pronounced 'sewt' when spoken. Likewise, the word MASALAN ( )t--;
has a spirantized 'th' sound not represented at all by the Arabic script.
Helping vowels and stress patterns are also problematic in this regard.
Hence, it might be suggested tliat the Arabic version not be taken as
an independent and self-suffrcient work. Rather, it will almost certainly
prove to student's advantage to use it in conjunction with the Englislr
version when needed.
The cornpletion of the fuabic version of Yalla is due to the efforts of
many people. In particulate, credit must go to CASA Executive Director,
Mr. Sherman A. Jackson who took an idea that been talked about but never
acted tlpon for nearly a decade and helped convert it into the present work.
Special credit mr.rst also go to Mrs. Nagwa Hedayet, who actually took on
the painstaking task of transliterating the entire text, The care and skill witir
which she carried out this task camot be overpriced. Dr. Jolur Swanson
was indeed helpfirl in rnakirrg cefiain adrninistrative arrangements
necessary to the completion of the work. Finally, we wish to thanj< all of'
or"lr students in both A.L,U. and CASA for their insightful corrunents ancl
sr"rggestions given over the years, It is with these students in mind that tiris
project was undertaken.

LESSON TWO

As mentioned before ( on page 3 ), Arabic has no indefinite article,


so eaci-r item represents an indeflnite noun :

The I -)t. I
The / Jl / of the definite arricre is assirnilated to rhe firsr
consonant of the following noun if that noun begins with
one of the consonants in parenthesis.
