Nazanine (she/her)I would like to learn Levantine Arabic. Any tips?
AesdeefQuick question: in the word 'بورجر' in MSA, is the ج pronounced as usual (/ʒ/ or /dʒ͜/), or is it /g/ as in 'gift'? My textbook transcribes it as būrgar, but otherwise transcribes ج as j 
I thought Forvo could help, but the only recording for 'بورجر' cuts off right before the sound in question

Bilal Barakat 🍉If you’re an intermediate learner of Levantine Arabic, the Palestinian movie Eyes of a Thief (on Netflix until June 17) is a good choice if you want to have a go at watching a film without subtitles. The vast majority of the dialogue is straightforward, moderately paced, one person speaking at a time. #LearningArabic
Tim MillsCurrently interested in #LearningArabic, #LearningFrench, and #LearningIndigenousLanguages, but will spend time on just about any shiny new language that comes along.
KirtWhat is the connotation or sentiment or the word غريب in Arabic?
#Duolingo teaches it as an adjective meaning "weird"
Is it insulting or more neutral? Can it be a compliment?
hrm… I could see what's tagged with that for a start…
