Introduction:

"I am learning Arabic in preparation for a job in Cairo, and I would like to improve my conversation skills. "

What is something distinctly 'You' which most people don't know about?

"I just got braces yesterday!"

What is your favorite Middle Eastern Dish?

"It's too hard to choose - I love so many dishes."

How did you find this group and, now that you're here, what do you want from it? For example, do you prefer Middle Eastern Music events, Dinner Parties, Language Workshops, Live Theatre, or just getting together to meet new people and have fun?

"Language workshops and informal conversation."

Have you visited the Middle East, and, if so, where and in what capacity? For that matter, where have you traveled outside the US?Do you speak other languages besides English & Arabic?Feel free to share whatever info you'd like.

"I have never been to the Middle East, but I lived in Kosovo and Central Africa. I speak French and used to know some Albanian and Spanish."

Do you speak Arabic? If so, what dialect(s). Do you know Modern Standard Arabic (Fusha?) Can you read, write & speak Fusha? Answering this question will help us to better offer suitable language workshops for the club.

"I am learning MSA. I have been studying it since November 2007, and I am still a beginner."
