[@mishmishitashan]

Hanan's Najdi is a very watered down version based on how it's spoken in Riyadh. The Najdi spoken in Riyadh lost many of the dialect's defining characteristics overtime to accommodate the influx of residents from elsewhere in the country and abroad. Even some of the explanations given weren't very precise (tesanna3 isn't homemaking, it simply means to fix up or to make right) and this is reflective of the city losing much of its original lexicon and the generational gap in how people speak within that city. Najdi speakers from elsewhere will speak more conservative dialects with the main difference being whether they speak North or South Najdi; both nowadays far removed from the Arabic spoken in Riyadh.

[@Ahmed-pf3lg]

This isn’t just Riyadh/Najdi though. Here in Jeddah/Mecca/Medina (Hijazi) it’s the same, the accent Lamees spoke is very old (she probably asked her parents about it). Today we speak a watered down version of it.

[@mishmishitashan]

@@Ahmed-pf3lg Agree. Generally the trend has been to go for a koine Arabic similar to Riyadh notably among the younger generation. This is presumably to be closer to formal Arabic and free of cultural/regional association. Likewise speakers of distinct dialects like Urban Hejazi, Gassimi, or Hasawi are expected to water down their speech and might be ridiculed in a variety of ways for not doing so. It's a generational shift that's also being supported by a common objective.

I am a non-native speaker of Hindi from South India. I believe the words बाग (Baag) and बगीचा (Bageecha) come from Persian and mean garden in Hindi. I associate "Baag" with bigger public parks and "Bageecha" with smaller gardens, like ones you'd have in your backyard. Native speakers, please correct me if this association is incorrect. I am a huge fan of your work, Bahador. Thank you for all that you do on this channel. I would like to make one small request, though. Would it be possible to provide English subtitles whenever the participants are presenting these long paragraphs? It would be nice to read the translation of the sentences. I felt a bit lost at times watching this and the Ladino video. I can imagine how much work goes into organising these events and editing the videos, so if it is not possible to add subtitles, I understand. Cheers :)

The Hijazi one I can fully understand and never use, we used to call it Urban Hijazi (الحجازية الحضرية). So in the Hijazi region we mainly have 2 or 3 dialects 1. Urban Hijazi ( Developed in Jeddah and Makkah and some part of Madina, Influenced by Ottoman Empire and the Pilgrimage) 2. Nomad Hijazi ( mainly in Madina and parts of Makkah and Jeddah, the people who refused the Ottoman rule went to the desert and kept their own dialect with them and this dialect widely used by the Tripes of Hijaz) 3. Modern Hijazi (this one kinda lies in between the two and the everyday dialect).

[@papazataklaattiranimam]

The issue of whether Arabic is one language or many languages is politically charged, in the same way it is for the varieties of Chinese, Hindi and Urdu, Serbian and Croatian, Scots and English, etc. In contrast to speakers of Hindi and Urdu who claim they cannot understand each other even when they can, speakers of the varieties of Arabic will claim they can all understand each other even when they cannot.[68] While there is a minimum level of comprehension between all Arabic dialects, this level can increase or decrease based on geographic proximity: for example, Levantine and Gulf speakers understand each other much better than they do speakers from the Maghreb. The issue of diglossia between spoken and written language is a significant complicating factor: A single written form, significantly different from any of the spoken varieties learned natively, unites a number of sometimes divergent spoken forms. For political reasons, Arabs mostly assert that they all speak a single language, despite significant issues of mutual incomprehensibility among differing spoken versions.[69] From a linguistic standpoint, it is often said that the various spoken varieties of Arabic differ among each other collectively about as much as the Romance languages.[70] This is an apt comparison in a number of ways. The period of divergence from a single spoken form is similar-perhaps 1500 years for Arabic, 2000 years for the Romance languages. Also, while it is comprehensible to people from the Maghreb, a linguistically innovative variety such as Moroccan Arabic is essentially incomprehensible to Arabs from the Mashriq, much as French is incomprehensible to Spanish or Italian speakers but relatively easily learned by them. This suggests that the spoken varieties may linguistically be considered separate languages.

[@Enne-]

The Arabic language is standard across all region (tradional and modern stardard Arabic). Levant, gcc, morrocon, etc are all considered dialects not a language. You wont see dialects written or spoken anywhere formal or official. So we do all understand each other.

Around 28.04 Mofareh remarks "Everyone is speaking the same language or dialect". What is that dialect ?

[@yousifmohammed4841]

We call it a 'White Dialect'. White here means neutral or non-biased. It is a dialect understood by all Saudis. It does not have its own grammatical rules, but it can be said that it includes commonly used words in all dialects without adding or changing specific letters or sounds.. It is not created by anyone, yet it has developed naturally over the years as a result of interaction between people from different tribes and regions. It can be compared to the situation in USA, where the dialect understood by all Americans is the one used in movies or news, or in Egypt, where the Cairene dialect is understood by all Egyptians and they speak it among each others, despite each region has its own dialect. I hope my explanation is clear to you :-)

[@abid6053]

There aren't many differences between Najdi and Hijazi dialects and MSA when it comes to vocabulary. Despite that, they differ slightly from MSA in their accent and grammar (like all other Arabic dialects). +It's worth mentioning that the Hijaz region is a very diverse place where people from all over the world have migrated since the dawn of Islam, so Hijazi Arabic has many vocabulary words that aren't of Arabic origin compared to other Saudi dialects.
