''Thanks for creating the Egyptian Arabic Swadesh list and your contributions to the main article. It's nice to see others interested in the topic.''

Again, welcome! &mdash; Zerida 19:26, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Re. Egyptian Arabic and dukha
Hi! I think you're doing great with the Swadesh list. Dukha, dikha and dukhum/dukhumma (thanx for adding the rest) are used by more conservative speakers of Egyptian Arabic, for example in the "baladi" quarters of Cairo and in the countryside. I think it's an influence from Coptic. The older generation will tend to use them more often. Masri today, or at least the so-called "educated" sociolect, has Standard Arabic influence, so the demonstratives may not be as widely used. There's also a dialectal difference; some provinces use dawwat, diyyat and dolat. Hope Egypt is treating you well. &mdash; Zerida 23:20, 3 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Egyptian Arabic nearly always uses postposed demonstratives, so it would be il-walad dukha (usually, it will be realized il-wad dukha). In this case, it will always come after the noun. Yes, I think the article really needs another text sample that better illustrates the nuances of the language. Any of the suggestions you made are good, as long as Classical use is eleminated or minimal. If you have anything in mind, please feel free to add. A political cartoon sounds appropriate for the page. I'll also try digging something up from Abdel-Massih 1978. If you want to get a feel for the dialectal differences, there is an Egyptian Arabic sound library at this link . It includes clips of a wide range of dialects from across the country. We might even be able to use that for a dialect sample &mdash; Zerida 08:31, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

Article on Al-
Hi. I wonder if you wouldn't mind taking a look at the article above, and expanding it further, or adding any sources appropriate for our English Wikipedia. I've already built it from a one-sentence stub using the sum total of my knowledge on the subject. Specifically, someone raised questions about the etymology of Semitic definite articles that I just couldn't answer. So I'm trying to recruit other Wikipedians with Arabic/linguistic expertise, such as yourself. Thanks very much! -Fsotrain09 19:47, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Fusha Swadesh List
I started the list but haven't got around to finishing it, thankyou for your contributions so far. All of what I wrote is correct in Fusha Arabic, so there was no need for you to change the IPA spellings, as they are now incorrect. Since you don't have a proper understanding of the IPA, please leave the spelling to me, as I study liguistics as well as Tajweed, and the Shaykh I study from TabaarakAllah has an ijaaza in all the ahruf and styles of recitation. I will fix up the mistakes (especially the changes to 'æ' which were all removed). -Mecca Cola 08:41, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Cass-bot. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Cass-bot~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 22:54, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
