Description
As people do not speak standard Arabic in everyday life, it is advisable to learn the Syrian dialect. “Syrian dialect” is an umbrella term for the very similar dialects in Syria, Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan (Levant/Bilad al-Sham region) and is understood everywhere in the Arab world. The majority of Arabs in Berlin also speak this dialect, so that the language can also be practiced and used in everyday life in Berlin. Learners of Standard Arabic often have difficulties in contact with Arabic-speaking people because they usually do not answer in Standard Arabic, but in dialect. A dialect course is therefore particularly recommended for those who work in social work, education, as doctors or for aid organizations. This enables them to help or respond spontaneously in everyday situations and build up a solid basis of trust.
