Can you not be so patronising? I, for one, disagree with you (from experience).banco55 said:It's not exactly a secret.
Yes but there's been significant discussion in the linguistic community about it. Basically there are a lot of concerns with how they aquire the data, and how it applies to various types of people. There's also concern about the content taught and how it's taught.The State Department
You also need to ask the fundamental question that proficiency in, say, French, is a lot "less" of another language for you because of all the English cognates.
Now see that's just wrong. For starters, you obviously don't understand what you're talking about. Talking about "some Arabic" just shows that.Good luck if you don't already speak at least some Arabic. It's meant to be just about the hardest language for English speakers to learn.
Colloquial Arabic is really simple, and is completely incomparable to even MSA. Imo, once you're over the hurdle of the script, Bob's your uncle - the language comes naturally.
