I'm also learning the al shami dialects, arabic is hard but i think it looks more intimidating than it actually is. The most intimidating thing about it, for me, is the difference between dialects, it seems the dialects have a wider gap between them than serbian, croatian, bosnian etc have between them.

HalkA is used for a wedding ring or a round earring, djob means a pocket, sokAk is very colloquial for a street, dyukyAn is an archaic word for a shop, ama is very often used (only in colloquial speech) for "but", katrAn is the same as in Bosnian/Arabic, kasApin is an archaic word for a butcher, kalUp is a mold (shape), kafEz is cage, sandUk means a coffer.

I don't know how old Arabic is, but Arabic was limited in the Arabian peninsula until the 7th century. Arabic words had a chance to spread thanks to Islam. In the Balkans, it was because of especially the influence of the Ottoman Empire.

It’s because of the Turkish presence in Hungary. We have many words used in Turkey, like zseb for pockets, kadi for judge, but they ultimately come from Arabic. Ottomans used many loan words from Arabic and Persian.

​@MoonLight A ''Canaanite languages, group of Northern Central or Northwestern Semitic languages including Hebrew, Moabite, Phoenician, and Punic. They were spoken in ancient times in Palestine, on the coast of Syria, and in scattered colonies elsewhere around the Mediterranean. An early form of Canaanite is attested in the Tell el-Amarna letters (c. 1400 BC). Moabite, which is very close to Hebrew, is known chiefly from one inscription dating from the 8th century BC. The only living Canaanite language is Hebrew, which was revived as a spoken language in the 19th and 20th centuries.'' This article is from Britannica. We speak specifically about Arabic language and I can't see the name of Arabic language in the article about Canaanite language that you mention.

Me shouting from here "Makaze, bona!" (the word bona, or bolan for a man, is difficult to translate, but it has, among others, the meaning of "give it a try" or "how can't you guess this") It comes from "bolan ne bio" (bo(l)na ne bila for a woman) which means "might you not be sick", as a good wish, and it emphasizes what it's said, like Gdje si, bolan (bona), Where are you, or Hajde, bona, Come on.

The most used words are not domestic in bosnian language. Most of them came with the ottoman empire. All of those words have also their slavic counterparts.

Hi Bahador. I was recently watching a travel vlogger who is currently in East Africa and realised how many words in Swahili and other local languages are very similar to or the same as those in Hindi / other Indian languages. One reason might be the influence of Arabic in both regions. But I strongly suspect the influence of Indian settlers in the East African countries. It would be interesting to see a comparison of Swahili and Hindu if it is possible (I've not seen it yet on your channel).

[@sumerianking4942]

It’s definitely the Arabic influence. The word Swahili itself is Arabic meaning the “coasts”.

[@infinite5795]

@@sumerianking4942 there is indian influence as well, how do u think the dishes in Zanzibar or Tanzania look so indian? Arabic food is very bland and not much colorful as compared to Indian food.

Boşnakça diye bir dil yoktur o sadece yerel bir ağızdır. O dilin adı Sırp-Hırvatça'dır. Hem Sırp-Hırvatça bir slav diliyken Arapça bir sami dilidir. Sırp-Hırvatça'nın Osmanlı dönemi sebebiyle Türkçe'den kelimeler almış olması çok daha olağandır. Zaten videodan da anlaşıldığı üzere Arapça kelimelerin telaffuzu büyük ölçüde Türkçe kelimeler gibi alınmış

[@MusculaRMinD]

Never been surprised by anything in your episodes more than the Arab girl here knowing the Bosnian word “ama” almost INSTANTLY!!!! Even though there is no emphasis on the “m” in it like in Arabic!!!!!! … I’ve seen Arabs totally not getting very similar words in other languages for a long time, but this girl is by far the best Arab that has come on any of your episodes!!! Didn’t seem like that at the beginning of it though, then she just flew up so high with quite a number of words!!! Impressive!!!
