Hey everyone - which is the most attractive in your opinion? Is it Egyptian 🇪🇬 or Lebanese 🇱🇧?

Sorry Egypt, I prefer the Lebanese dialect. Sounds like a caress.

[@zeinramadan]

Egyptian here. I think the global consensus in the middle east is that the Egyptian dialect is the funniest one and lebanese/levantine accents are sexier.

[@zeinramadan]

Funniest not in terms of how it sounds but how you can use it to say funny things. And it’s also easier to speak in egyptian because it’s “lazy” in the same way the american accent is to the British accent

[@chrischammas1]

The cool thing about this comparison is that Lebanese love Egyptian accents and Egyptians love Lebanese accents… definitely a lot of love between the two cultures.

[@mamabilly29]

Im indonesian learning egyptian arabic. First time i hear egyptian dialect, i feslt that the dialect is interesting and funny, compared to standard arabic. It sounds explosive and clear, with distinctive "g" sound.

[@GabrielTrentinBarbosa]

Maybe that's because Egyptians themselves are funny people. I'm Brazilian and a lot of people say Brazilian Portuguese is sexy, but I think they associate the language with the stereotype of the people

i don't believe this was a fair comparison because of the few number of people who participated. also, the Egyptians who participated were very individual and their own characters - which might not be the right one for this kind of comparison - had the most influence on the other participants' decision. i guess a better approach is to choose a couple of romantic movie/series dialogues from both dialects, Lebanese and Egyptian, and to present them to your guests. then, let them decide which dialect is more sexy than the other.

[@seifelbagoury7182]

If were going with movies then its a tough tie... old school egyptian romantic movies win the day every day for me and i imagine every one else... but these Lebanese Egyptian hybrid dramas these days make it very hard for me to pick a better accent. We egyptians excel in romantic comedies and ofcourse action movies... and tbh every other genre just with the sheer number and talent our celebrities have but with romantic movies and shows its a tough tie

[@TheEverything100]

i dont think ppl can talk like a movie it was just a small experiment and its known lebanese would win this and i found the egyptian girl did a really good job compared to realism... like she did too good to be realistic and i enjoyed the video in general but it was a good video overall everyone had their own character i think its the type of vid to just enjoy it and smile rather than judge it and what we think we could have done to it

i really can not tell the difference , but at work i noticed that my morrocan team mates always smile spontaneously when i start speeaking my lebanese dialect , and i even love the Moroccan accent too , they speak as if they're singing , and use a lot of affection words like "akhouya ( meaning brother ) " i love Maghrebi accent .. i think we as lebanese have a lower tone voice and patient in pronounciation .. that makes it maybe look romantic , even in arguing we tend to emphasize on the content of our answers rather than rasing our voices and speak high
