I'm an Egyptian living in the US and wanted to just say that your Arabic is super impressive for someone who taught themself! I've always been curious about minority cultures and languages in Egypt, but there isn't much academia or public interest, so I appreciate this content! I think you'd be interested to research the Berber language (Siwi Amazigh) in Northwest Egypt.

Keep up the good work and Keep looking into the Nubian languages of our people so our Heroic Ancient Queens can have their history deciphered as Egypt did and allow their story to finally be told. Peace and Blessings.
