How Long? How far? How often? How to use the question word 'ad-desh' in Levantine Syrian Arabic

We've been looking at all the most common question words in Levantine/Syrian Arabic. In this lesson, you will learn how to use the word 'ad-desh' to:

-Ask about duration. How long did something last?
-Ask about length. How long is the table? How tall is someone?
-More duration questions: How long did you live/study/visit in that place?
-Present tense: How long have you been living there?, and similar questions.
-How far is it?
-What is the distance of to...?
-'kil ad-desh', How often..?

And when 'ad-desh' is NOT a question word!
-How beautiful!, How difficult!, How comfortable it is!

Another spectacular lesson, Manar!! You really fill each lesson with so much useful information and so many practical examples from real life to show us exactly how to express these ideas. And your teaching is so clear! I really learned a lot from this video. Thanks a million!! 🥰😊

This lesson is especially helpful! I’ve known the word اديش for years, but I didn’t know all these ways to use it.. that’s what happens when you don’t live in a place where you regularly hear the language.. thank you..

[karlhaddad]

This was another very helpful lesson. Thank you very much for that. I love watching your latest lesson with my Sunday morning coffee (my time in Australia). It's a great way to start the day! 🙂
