Am interested in learning Hebrew.

Thank you for the videos Maha. Its very enjoyable to learn by watching you, good job!

i really want to learn Hebrew .i'm arabic Maha seriosly i'm really curious of how you learned all these languages ;) you're epic girl

Thanks Maha! I really love your comparative teaching for these two languages, it looks like the best way to concretely memorize concepts :D

Great lessons as always Maha (By the way, love your name)!! Thank you so much! ^^

Thank you Mahaaa

i like ur presentation very much.....

Thank you Maha!

@jmbpastor No, the consonants have not changed so radically, rather the vowel system has undergone changes possibly due to influence from Yiddish or European languages.

Wonderful!

Brilliant Maha. I am happy learning both Hebrew and Arabic. Noel x x

Very interesting video! Btw, to give you help with that english word, it's 'modernity', but I was very impressed with how you knew how to use different endings to form nouns from adjectives in English!

شكرا مها

AWESOME !

Please make more videos like this where you present Arabic and Hebrew vocabulary items side by side.

Maha I share your opinion that similarities between languages are truly fascinating and awesome! They almost always reflect a shared historical and or cultural heritage. I don't speak 257 languages like you do XD, but similarities are present between many many languages. (there is a crazy web between German, English, Dutch, French, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian ) I have never realized how similar Arabic and Hebrew are! Maybe I should learn Hebrew. I always loved the ancient looking letters.

Maha... thanks for this... but I'm not sure if Hebrew comparisons are needed (?) I subscribe to you to learn Arabic not Hebrew... learning Arabic is hard enough for me (!) language comparisons are interesting sometimes but these were just the Hebrew equivalents... ie you could have compared to ... French? Afrikaans? i didn't see anything really interesting in the example... you could have taught me at least 2 more Arabic words in the same amount of time... just a thought..

the quality of your camera is great !

Love your video's !! mshallah astamerri maha ;) and i was wondering whats the name of the song at the beggining ?! :)

loveee ur nailpolish! what kind & colour is it

How many languages do you know?! :P ♥ (i speak: english, french and romanian!)

Great video, as usual! By the way, was someone practicing yoga in the background? Heard the OM a couple of times.

Wow, you know alot of languages! You must be very, very intelligent!

this is so cool. salem and shalomb. ;).

Cool

@coolsteven2 yes very similar, and if you know one of them well, it's very easy to reach an intermediate level in the other in a short amount of time. But i think Arabic->Hebrew is quicker and easier than the other way around. Arabic, especially MSA or Classical Arabic is more complicated than Modern Hebrew. and the fact that modern hebrew doesn't have dialects, only accents, unlike Arabic with its many different dialects.

@arivas713 Yes that is true, there are many different dialects and some of them are not that mutually intelligible. For example, people who come from the GUlf or something would have a hard time understanding a Moroccan person. And I don't think MSA is really spoken natively anywhere. I mean maybe there are some places where they speak something very similar, but MSA is basically just the Arabic you would see written in books and things like that.

@JosherForder Then I suppose you prefer the old english too

@LearnArabicwithMaha You go girl!

@jason0998 that's only because she's saying it

Maha, can you explain to me why שמח is pronounced "sameyyakh" and not just "samekh"? I don't get it, there's no yod between the mem and the khet.

Nouns and verbs ! xD Thankssss !!! ;**

where is the link to your other channel?

Salam alykum ya Gamilah :) what would you say about the thesis that says Hebrew emerged from arabic, i've heard that arab Palastinian don't find difficulties to learn hebrew, so some assume that hebrew is a dialect that's rooted from arabic.

you should include Italian as well.

@Deviad Its the gardener:)

@Deviad HAHAHA very good

she is so cute!

Ciao Maha sono uno studente di arabo e seguo sempre le tue lezioni. Volevo farti una critica costruttiva: cerca di concentrarti su una lingua sola quando fai un video, magari fai un video dedicato all'arabo ed uno dedicato all'ebraico sennò si crea un sacco di confusione :x Ma3 salamah!

I Maha, is everything ok over there? I was listening like an incoming air strike allarm near the end of the video. Regards, Davide

Why does one say "Li-anna-hu sa'eed" for He is happy and not "Huwa sa'eed" ? Kindly clarify this point.

Are the two languages that similar?

Maha Where do you stay ???

Where are you from?

Hi Maha, What is the difference between ana saed and ana Said (place in Egypt)? Is the difference in pronunciation or spelling? This confuses me.

@Nony993 لا يوجد خطأ أو عيب في دراسة العبرية، بل على العكس دراستها مهمة وبالتحديد للفلسطينيين. وأنا أيضا فلسطيني وأدرس العبرية.

@sweetyvany99 Well, you're wrong, my friend. Same'akh (no Y in there anyway) literally means happy. Somebody looking forward to something would be "metsape" or "meyachel". Both are verbs while same'akh is an adjective. They're not even close.

****RANDOM QUESTIONS! ive been told that arabic is not one vast monolithic language, but more a language continuum stretching from syria to morocco to sudan and that a syrian travelling to morrocco cannot possibly understand morroccan arabic. ive also been told it is because they dont speak 'proper' arabic or MSA i guess my question is how many arabic languages are there? and were is MSA NATIVLEY spoken? is it in arabia or do they speak their own language? is it like latin and romance Languages?

If you are christian would you plz say the meaning also in Assyrian . will be nice in arabic , hebrew , assyrian , plus english

Is it weird that I'm Mexican and learning Arabic?

@shimmygirl75 Saeed , with ' س seen' سـعيـد means happy ........ 'Saeed, whith '' ص 'sad' صــعيد means the region in Egypt .... seen is pronouned like the normal 's' in english, but 'sad' doesnt exist in english. its sort of sounds like a very heavy 's' ...

@SupositoryRepository I have to say I agree with that, I don't find Modern Hebrew attractive as a language for this very reason.

are you an arabs or italian??

Hi Maha, I know some Yemeni girls name Maha are you an Yemeni Arab, cutie.

@LearnArabicwithMaha Ah OK. :D Sometimes I'm paranoid. :P

سلام الاحظ شعرك ازعجك اثناء التصوير.. اقترح عليك ان تربطيه.. وشكرا.

Maha do you have twitter? I would be more than happy to follow you on twitter! :)

@konjarac monotheist in Hebrew is monotheist...

@LearnArabicWithMaha In Hebrew, 'Ani sameyyakh' means literally not "I'm happy", it actually means "I'm looking forward to it".

Are you maha muhammad abul illa

Arabic sounds better than Hebrew :)

@LearnArabicwithMaha LOL!

@AysarAburrub גם אני אוהבת את המבטא המזרחי! אבל אני לא רוצה לדבר ככה כי החברים הישראלים שלי יצחוקו עליי חחח

I'm neither Arab nor Jew, but I prefer al logha 3rabe for reasons given in this video. Modern Hebrew has thrown away a lot of the original Semitic consonants like 7eth & replaced it with KHAA. No offense, but it makes the language sound really ugly. Arabic flows and sounds much more pretty. I've heard some Yemeni Jews speaking Hebrew and it sounds a little bit more like Arabic. I actually think Ofra Haza sounds pretty. It's funny how Israelis make fun of Yemeni Hebrew, it's actually way prettier

lol mahdome =)

aiutooooo!! parla più lenta, altrimenti non capisco! :) come mai quando parli italiano sei più lenta?

يا سلام على حنية قلبك احب اطمنك يا اخ ديفيد الفلسطنين مش بيلحقو يسمعوا صوت الانذار زى الاسرائيلين لان معندهمش جهاز انذار على فكرة انا مش ضد اليهود بس انا ضد الاسرائيلين اللى بيعتدوا على ارضنا

@SabaeanYared Hebrews is not pretty, it's too harsh.

@sammyn06c palestine

@AysarAburrub يا اخي لغتكم شكلها نمل صاف ع بعض لووووووول

u will also nevert be hazeen and atsoov

מבטא מזרחי לנצח חחח אני באמת חושב שערבים במיוחד חייבים לדבר במבטא המקורי מיום נולדנו אנחנו יכולים לבטא את הקולות הקשים האלה, ואז למה לא להשתמש בהן? תודה על השיעור מהא!!
