June 26th, 2008

It's easy to get carried away and forget, just make sure you listening to our podcasts isn't the cause of distraction!

	Bilal says Sat 28th Jun 08@08:30 am Not very relevant question, but is there word for barbeque (BBQ) in Arabic? Thanks for the nice lesson.
	Ehab says Sat 28th Jun 08@12:24 pm Yes Bilal, it is مشاوي (Mashaawy)
	Json3 says Sun 6th Jul 08@04:51 am is there an easy way to know when to use maa and maatha. hopefully it's not to complicated. good lesson, thanks guys. i really look forward to these.
	Ehab says Mon 7th Jul 08@01:40 pm Json3; If it is followed by noun, then use maa, otherwise use maad'a. i.e.: ماذا حصل Maad'a 7a9al? (What happened? followed be verb) ما اسمك Maa ismok? (What is your name? followed by noun) Hope it is straightforward.

	spice says Mon 4th Aug 08@08:18 pm how do you know when to use haad'ihi [f] or had'a [m] in a sentnce does it depend on the subject u r talking about
	Ehab says Mon 4th Aug 08@08:30 pm (haad'a - هذا) is masculine and (haad'ihi - هذه) is feminine,, straightforward
	spice says Tue 5th Aug 08@03:24 pm oh thanks..i remember in the lesson EATING WHAT? u used haad'a هذ instead of haad'ihi هذه in the first sentence.. if u were to use haad'ihi would that make any difference or change the meaning of the sentence thanks
	Ehab says Tue 5th Aug 08@11:03 pm Yes, we used (haad'a) in lesson "Eating what" because we were talking about cockroach, which is masuline in Arabic
