Assalam Alaikom
I hope every one is doing well .
Last months I was thinking of teaching Arabic I really wanted that but I cant my final year at secondary school will start soon and have to get high marks .. no more time on pc . But I still want to help and teach ppl this beautiful language I know many people have an aim to learn this language but they face many difficulties , the biggest one is having many various accents , and they cant apply what they learnt coz while talking every one is using the classic Arabic with its different accents but while reading and writing the Formal one ( Fos’ha ) is used .
I can understand all ur feelings as non- Arabic speakers , if I were in the same situation I would not endure all these difficulties .. I really thank Allah to have Arabic as a mother tongue
I don’t want to discourage you with this introduction , but u must know this , that’s to me too . for example while reading any Arabic text I don’t have to read with harakat ( accents) I know it makes difference in meanings but I can guess the correct one . but while reading Qur’an I am not able to read without harakat .. Qur’an is written in perfect Arabic and different accents = different meanings .
Accent ( harakat ) I mean dhammah , fat’ha , Kasrah and skoon ( Arabic learners can understand me ) also I mean by the word ( accent ) .. the Saudi accent , Syrian , Iraqi , Egyptian , tinisian one .. etcetera .
Don’t worry if u could not understand an accent , here in SA some of my friends think I’m not Saudi bcz my accent is very strange to them , as well as I cant understand many accents in different Saudi regions
Well , after this boring introduction ^_^
