Gives me a good place to ask this question.

You mentioned "from Egyptian Arabic to Najdi Arabic". What are the differences between the various dialects of Arabic? I think the script is the same, Standard Arabic, but the speech is different? Anyway, knowledge on this topic would be greatly appreciated.

Seems a bit arbitrary...I mean...what exactly is meant to be discussed here?

[Otira]

I had a chance to learn Arabic a few years ago and passed. Still regret that. It seems an interesting language, and after "Lawrence of Arabia" and "Dune" I have a Westerner's romantic interest in things Arabic.

Cool! And what type of Arabic are you most interested in? I personally like the Najdi Arabic very much, and also Saudi Arabia itself is where i am very interested in

Vague. Very vague.

Everything regarding the Arabic language

The Arabic word for ‘book’ sounds a lot like the Japanese word for ‘word’. You could say they both share a k-t-b triconsonant root.

I changed the OP for you, geez, stop complaining now

Yup, kotoba (言葉) means word in Japanese and kitab (كتاب) means book in Arabic, and Hebrew has it also but then k-t-v, so Arabic, Hebrew and Japanese are the only languages i know who share a k-t-b triconsonant root

The Arabic word for ‘book’ sounds a lot like the Japanese word for ‘word’. You could say they both share a k-t-b triconsonant root.

That's odd, the two languages are in completlry different language families: Afro-Asiatic for Arabic and Japonic for Japanese. That sort of sharing shouldn't happen except with loan words and within the same family.

I understand your point, but this sort of sharing and lone words happens due to trading between different countries between 1400 and 1900, which used to happen people take the words from that language and spread it to others and create a own pronunciation and the definition of that word

I mean, it could also just be a false cognate. This happens quite often worldwide.

Oh Buddah I’m rusty
Salam. Esme Alex. Lugati Arabic lasat kama yajib.
Hopefully I got that right, haven’t spoken it in years and only wrote it a few times

I could understand a very little bit of what you said, but it’s: “Ismiy Alex. Lughati al-Arabiyah lasat kama yajib”

Assalamu alaykum. I'm terrible with languages so I only know a handful of words, but I've got a few Arab friends, so I'm around the language a lot.

It's a coincidence. There's only so many sounds the human body can produce after all. Japanese and English share a few words that sound alike but are not related either.

I've come across a lot of people who believe Nigerian and Japanese are related because of that, which tends to result in disgruntled Nigerians explaining the reality.
