Materials for Egyptian Arabic

Are there any good materials out there for Egyptian Arabic?  My two materials are all Standard Arabic.

Well, you will not be able to find many materials for Egyptain Arabic, but there is a book called "kallimni arabi" it's a good one. You can check it out. However, most of the books don't have the common phrases that we use these days, so try to speak with Egyptians. When you reach an advanced level I totally recommend you to watch Egyptian movies as well.

Actually there are materials out there.  Kallimni Arabi, as was suggested, has a pretty good reputation and there's a new series out, "Arabic Voices", which I'm hearing good things about.  

Website-wise, there's http://arabic.desert-sky.net/ which focuses mostly on Egyptian, and http://langmedia.fivecolleges.edu/culturetalk/egypt/index.html which has a great selection of short videos with transcripts (in English and Egyptian Arabic).  Also, check out http://www.mezzoguild.com/  The guy who runs the blog, Donovan Nagel, has been learning Egyptian Arabic for years and has devoted a lot of time and resources to learning it and collecting learning materials.

 

Hope this helps!

All the Arab world write with standard Arabic, but we speak with different dialect. It is better to learn standard Arabic then you could learn Egyptian dialect. There is a lot of Egyptian series and program out there.

There is no specific materials for Egyptian Arabic. The materials are mostly for standerd Arabic. If you want to learn Egyptian dialect, you should speak with Egyptian people or watch Egyptian movies. You can check the links below, they may benefit you.
