A'hlan wa sa'hlan. Kifik al yom?
I'm a) no native Arabic speaker and b) was barely functional in the language when I was studying full-time, but I did study it back in the 1980s. Unfortuantely, while Arabic is a gorgeous language, I had minimal aptitude at it -- unlike the young people in my class, I was putting in hours and hours of homework to keep my head above water.
I learned MSA as well as Arabic-Syrian dialect. One of my professors was from Jordan (former lawyer/college professor) and the other was a Palestinian who'd spent most of his adult life in California, so while he spoke Arabic fluently, he was definitely a Californian at heart. It made for a very interesting contrast in education.
