sorry for the very late replay …..
am Arabic and i will be more then happy to help you (-)

I’ve had many opportunities to learn Arabic, and if I had, I would be in a radically different place right now, literally and mentally. Anyway, it has finally become apparent that I’m doing myself a disservice by remaining ignorant of my father’s language.

Update: Sadly I did absolutely nothing on this goal this year. It is still important to me though, so I’m leaving it on the list for 2008.
Asked my Database class..

team members if either of them spoke Arabic. Unfortunately neither do. So I’m still looking. Hey, maybe they know someone who speaks Arabic. I didn’t even think to ask. I could also ask Asma if she knows anyone.

Had an idea about this goal the other day. There are quite a few foreign students at the university. Some of them must speak Arabic. I think I saw at least one student club/association for Arabic students. Now that I’m taking upper division classes, maybe I could trade tutoring – C for Arabic – or just pay someone $6 an hour or something to tutor me in Arabic. That’d be the least time consuming way for me as well as the least stressful. If I could get someone for 2 hours a week, that’d be almost $50 a month and students can always use extra cash, right? I would do the Pimsleur tapes first and then post an ad looking for someone. I asked Daniel to download those again and he said he would. Hmmm.. I wonder if I could do this with my French goal too?

Haven’t started with everything else going on (classes, moving, etc) but want to start soon. Found a Pimsleur set at the library that I can pick up tomorrow.

Hi everyone! I am arabian and parents are from Jordan and speak arabic. I know the basics, but just that! It’s somehow weird how I can always understand my parents but barely whenever I see an arabic movie (we get those channels). I feel bad about not knowing it, as it is part of me. One day I will learn :) Good luck to everyone!
