This documentary is very well put together, well done! I found it incredibly fascinating as a linguist, and when my family and I visited Qatar we had similar questions, I will definitely be sharing this with them!

I enjoyed this video so much that I watched it more than three times! Actually, I even had a quiz on it. I'm truly fascinated by the quality of this video and hope to see more like it in the near future.

Fascinating study of the linguistic landscape and significance of local dialectal variants in the highly multilingual environment of Qatar. This would be wonderful for linguistic classrooms! Lovely work!

Thank you so much for this excellent documentary professor! The editing and production value was very stellar. May Allah reward you for your efforts and hard work, and grant you a long, healthy, and happy life. Inshallah one day you can make a program on tv talking about various dialects amongst tribes in Qatar, and the linguistic diversity of Qatar's expat community. Thanks again and take care!

بہت بہترین کام کیا ہے آپ نے۔ بہت دل خوش ہوا یہ معلوماتی ویڈیو دیکھ کر۔ ویڈیو کے آخر میں میرے ذہن میں ایک اور بات بھی آئی، وہ یہ کہ ہر زبان کا اپنا ایک منفرد فونٹ بھی ہوتا ہے۔ یعنی اردو، فارسی، عربی، سندھی وغیرہ سب کے لکھنے میں کم و بیش ایک ہی طرح کے رسم الخط کا استعمال ہوتا ہے لیکن فونٹ ہر ایک کا الگ الگ ہے۔ کیا شناخت کا زبان، رسم الخط کے علاوہ فونٹ سے بھی کوئی تعلق ہے؟؟

[@zabanwala]

جی بالکل۔ نستعلیق فارسی اور اردو میں مقبول ہے لیکن عربی میں نہیں

[@user-AbulArabiyy]

It may either be a type of Ibdhaalul H'uroof as it is most common among Arabs specially in Eastern part of Arabia like أخذ we use خذأ and أكل we use كلأ and in H'ijaaz like زوج جوز and زوجة جوزة and زنجبيل جنزبيل and so on.... so this 'ال Al' also may be like that becomes 'la لَ' or may be a 'French' usage effect on Qatari H'adhriyy dialect and accent... Allaah knows best.

Chitra is malayali and in hindi this distinction is not taught hence wrong pronounciation
