I like a lot this way!! Just a little suggestion: upload or put at the end the dialogue, so is we dont know some words, we can look up! ;)

[@semaislin]

Please continue to make more comprehensible input videos. It's awesome. Thank you so much.

[@lisabahouth8893]

Thank you so much. I am at the point where I need to hear the language!!! it pushes things along, so glad I found you.

[@pez5491]

It works! My Arabic is pretty basic but I understand your talk completely :O

[@klarah1]

كنت أشوف هذا فيديو عشر مرة وأحبه كثير. هو جيد جدا للطلاب الجديد. سلام من السويد

[@xanderbianchi1015]

Man, this is one of the most enjoyable videos for learning Arabic I've watched in a while. I really appreciate the casual (realistic) rhythm and style -- it's the opposite of lots of content I find that is basically just reading a script. I have a couple podcasts in Levantine dialect that I listen to which are basically just conversations, but they're usual a little too far above my comprehension level to enjoy too much. This is perfect though! I like that you find simple ways to say some things in different ways to help with understanding more intermediate words. Thanks for this!

[@danielam6640]

This is fantastic! Exactly what I need, slightly above my level but I understood quite a bit thanks to the hints/help which is super exciting

[@schoolofyalla]

Awesome!

[@kathleenbrooks3942]

This is perfect for me. I’m a little more advanced in this, but I love how you make sure we’re understanding the content Shokran.

[@hopehebdon2113]

I was surprised at how much I understood. This is great practice!

[@mooonrayy]

شكرا كتير 💕😌❤️this method is amazing!

[@AmirMohammed-go5ss]

The only suggestion we have is we want you to make more videos like this

[@mrhcl6kerson1783]

This is perfect for beginners, shukran akhi

[@sairahussain9862]

This is great. Thankyou! I have been watching shows on netflix with the subtitles on in english. It really helps when the dialogue is fast ( yours is not too fast in these videos)

[@KaulitzJade]

Man, i felt so great when i understood most of this!

[@amani745]

This is an excellent video. I've been viewing so many different videos teaching Arabic, but this stands out from them all, Jazzak'Allah'Khair. Please kindly continue posting these types of videos. It's helping me get used to hearing the various words in Arabic.

[@agnieszkajanicka8883]

what a great concept it is! please bring more of it :)

[@schoolofyalla]

Thanks-for sure!

[@Freezeezy3]

English speaker here: I am trying to work on distinguishing my Arabic consonants (well, and vowels). I found it helpful to repeat after you! look I couldn't understand the story, but the 3's (reyens) 8's (achks), and K's (*coff*s) really came across to me this time.

[@popwittenino7411]

كتير ممتع. هادى لازم يكون مسلسل. إسمو ممكن "كريم بحكي". بتحكي عن أي شي مثلا حياتك، حرب الروسيا، تضحم الاسعار.

[@schoolofyalla]

فكرة حلوة!

[@janslehmann05]

This immersion method is used if you can go to the country where the language is spoken, most language schools teach in the target language. Good job keep it up!

[@qqq18462]

This is exactly what I never knew I always needed. Thank you School of Yalla 🙌

[@dudeitsliz18]

This is so helpful so i dont rely on English or subtitles thank you! I use these to work on my listening skills

[@VArabic-sw7en]

Oh, this is so helpful and important! I'm still a beginner but it was really motivating to be able to pick out words and phrases that I already know, and I can keep coming back as I improve to see how much more I understand

[@faizanm4100]

Very good . This is how most people learn organically.

[@pieroschneider2783]

حبت كتير ! شكرا ! قصة بسيطة بس كل شي واضح. Some words and verbs new to me but through your mimic and through the right speed you choosed everything went in the right place in my brain. BRAVO!!!👍😉

[@alisongroen7691]

Great video, I'm a real beginner but you actually taught me words by only speaking arabic and i could follow the video partially, but I'm glad because this video shows me where I'm at and what more i could learn

[@EagleSlightlyBetter]

This is fantastic!!! Absolutely perfect. Thank you.

[@hyyawa]

These videos are amazing. I love the idea of storytelling. Thank you!

[@schoolofyalla]

Thanks!-open for ideas/suggestions!

Best of the best vídeos!! It makes me feel that I am indeed improving my learning!!! Many thanks and In Sha Allah i will take a full course at Yalla!!!❤

[@SarojKhanal]

best listening practice, learned few new words... love it

[@A.ElifErdis]

no other like this channel. thank you!

[@jc.9]

I understood the main points of the story and picked up on the meaning of vocab I haven’t heard before. But having subtitles in Arabic would be helpful to see how these words are written. So then I can note down new vocab accurately.

[@sysybaba420]

I am learning gulf/saudi arabic but I think I understood almost all of what you said!

[@yousefmostajeran7514]

Thank you very mich Kareem, this was amazing. I really enjoyed and got proud of myself for understanding. You're a great teacher!

Awesome-great to hear!

[@7skheaven]

Yes, this is so important!!

[@HJ-1357]

im learning arabic by myself and i understood everything

[@donfrancis1246]

فهمت كل شي تقريبا. Thank you and please do more. I have a small suggestion. Discuss some words especially nouns before the video. Not necessarily all the words, but it will help beginner people to understand more.

[@Bigz2006]

انا كمان وبتعلم عربي بس أسبوعين

[@xalima8101]

Muchas gracias!! El concepto es el correcto, sin duda. Hace 23 años que enseño español así y creo que es lo más correcto. Me acabo de suscribir a tu canal.

[@sarahs405]

thank youuuu so muuuuch! I really enjoy this new kind of video, it is so important to get used to the listening. Yes please, could you please think about the transcript for the next listening videos? :-) In arabic/english (transliteration no needed as I consider it as a very bad habit to learn ^^ ) . Greetings from Brussels - Belgium !

[@Yakiraw]

That was really good, i understand maybe 5-10% but really fun to try, and i understood what it was about mostly

[@maria.aastrom]

[@iramsiddiqui386]

It was good fun. I started to get you closer to the end. I’m sure some of the things were completely different to what I understand 😂

[@fuzbcuz7613]

MarHaba! I guess I would be considered a "late beginner". I've studied MSA irregularly for over a decade and recently finished two units (or 60 lessons; 1,800 minutes) of Levantine Arabic with Pimsleur. I understood many things in fragments from your story and I'm pretty sure I understood the overall gist but would you be able to share with us, in English, what you said so we can check our comprehension? Shukran jazeelan. This was really helpful.

[@maximus5465]

Great video!😊

[@michaelp.osullivan7798]

لازم تعلًّم اللغة هاك …. ممتاز تعليم العربي بدون ترجمة بس بالعربي نفسه …. استمرّ هكذا …. وممكن تزيد الصور لمساعدة التلميذ للفهم 😊….

[@cormac5253]

Really enjoyed it, perfect pace and the pics really helped I was so worried the whole time that you wouldn’t get the white shirt tho 😂 was able to relax when you said you made it up

[@booklover882000]

I just started an Arabic 101 class at a college. These videos where I can listen to the sound and speech are very helpful to me. This presentation was very good for understanding the flow of the speech. I recognized about 10 words from rhe whole thing!😅 I have an idea. Can you do one where you tell a story that we already know. Like some common children's story or tale, and tell us what the story will be, but speak the whole story in Arabic? Then we have an idea of what you are talking about but still only hearing Arabic. Shukran!

[@booklover882000]

Also, I learned the whole Arabic alphabet by listening to the children's alphabet song in Arabic.

[@nahummamodaniel8278]

Lol when I first watched the video a few months back I felt like I only understood 10 words too haha! After rewatching it right now, I understood the whole thing. It'll be really rewarding after you continue practicing and return to this video and you get what it's saying

[@paoloangeletti1226]

Gracias. Creo que seria util agrégar algunas palabras llave en sobreimpresion (en ingles y arabe) porque ayudaria en la comprension rapida y en la pronuncia. Saludos de Italia

[@RomanSmetanin-uo3vt]

Could you please enable or add the subtitles to this video. I kinda see where you coming from with “just listen approach”, but in fact if we want to repeat after you or learn some parts of your stories and actually gain the new words, we need to somehow see the script and the translation to it. Or at least enable subtitles please 🙏 I think it’s a made up concern that people will switch on subtitles and will loose their portion of the experience as a consequence. If they don’t need the subtitles, they will not switch them on. Instead, if u add the subs u could really help pre-intermediate students.

[@strongcecile]

I need the transcription please

[@RM-pn2ym]

Is this the correct Arabic for when I go to Jordan and Palestine?

[@donkeykongfedereristhegoat762]

At 5:12, what does "maa isto" mean, and how would you write it in arabic? I'm not sure I've seen that verb before, though from context I assume it means "try on"

[@Xr4tf000]

ما قستو I think this word comes from ( قياس) In this accent, they pronounce ق (qaf) like that ء

[@Xr4tf000]

Here it means he didn't (try it on )

I know you want to make people listen, but without subtitules, this video becomes inaccesible to low level students :(

[@schoolofyalla]

This is meant for students who already have an advanced level and want to practise listening without relying on the visual too much. For beginner students there are other videos on the channel with subtitles or words laid out on the screen.
