Selam everybody!

I´m starting this wiki after years trying to learn Arabic, but without going far... The main causes are: 1) NOBODY SPEAKS MSA (Modern Standard Arabic). Believe, NOBODY. Many Arabic teachers told me of how frustrated they got as they ordered water in Cairo, speaking MSA and the waiters answered something as: "Sorry, I don´t speak German, d´you speak English?" (in English, of course). 2) There are many dialects, but the courses in dialect are just for beginners.

So, I decided to create here a mixed dialect to be used in Middle Eastern countries (Egypt, Jordania, Libanon, Syria, Iraq, Kuweit, Saudi Arabia, and in the Gulf countries). Suggestions are welcome. I´m no Arab, no moslem, I do it for the curiosity and love for languages.
