-------Lesson Dialog-------
----Formal ----
سارة: كيف كان أول يوم من البرنامج التطوعي؟
مينا: زرنا الأحياء الفقيرة حول القاهرة.
تيم: إنهم يسكنون في بيوت صغيرة و مظلمة جداً يا سارة.
مينا: لن تتصوري حجم المأساة التي يعيشونها. أسرة قديمة و أثاث متهالك. الوضع صعب..
سارة: ماذا ستفعلون إذا؟
تيم: والله أنا لا أعرف من أين سنبدأ حتى. ولكن رؤساء الفرق سوف يقسموننا إلى أربع فرق.
مينا: كل فرقة سوف تتولى أحد المهام. لا تقلق يا تيم. سوف نساعدهم بالتأكيد.
تيم: لم أكن أعرف ان هناك أسر فقيرة لهذه الدرجة في مصر. بعض البيوت لا يصلها الماء!
سارة: بالتأكيد فأنت تسكن في الزمالك و هي منطقة أغلبيتها من الأغنياء.
----Formal English----
Sara: How was the first day of the volunteer program?
Mina: We visited the poor neighborhoods around Cairo.
Tim: They live in very small and dark houses, Sara.
Mina: You can't imagine the magnitude of the tragedy they are living in. Old beds, run-down furniture. The situation is tough.
Sara: What are you going to do, then?
Tim: God, I don't even know where to start. But the team leaders divided us into four teams.
Mina: Each team will take over a task. Don't worry, Tim. We will help them for sure.
Tim: I didn't know that there were such poor families in Egypt. Some houses don't even have water!
Sara: Of course, you live in Zamalek and the majority of the people living in that area are rich.
----Formal Romanization----
sārah: kayfa kān ʾawwalu yawmin min al-barnāmaǧ al-taṭawwuʿī?
mīnā: zurnā al-ʾaḥyāʾ al-faqīrah ḥawla al-qāhirah.
tīm: ʾinnahum yaskunūn fī byūt ṣaġīrah wa muẓlimah ǧiddan yā sārah.

sārah: māḏā satafʿalūn ʾiḏā?
tīm: ūal-lh ʾanā lā ʾaʿrifu min ʾayna sanabdaʾ ḥattā. walakin ruʾusāʾ al-firaq sawfa yuqassimūnanā ʾilā ʾarbaʿi firaq.
mīnā: kulla firqah sawfa tatawallā ʾaḥad al-mahām. lā taqlaq yā tīm. sawfa nusāʿiduhum bal-taʾkīd.
tīm: lam ʾakun ʾaʿrifu anna hunāka ʾusar faqīrah lihaḏihi al-daraǧah fī miṣr. baʿḍ al-buyūt lā yaṣiluhā al-māʾ!
sārah: bal-taʾkīd faʾanta taskun fī al-zamal-ik wa hiya minṭaqah ʾaġlabiyyatuhā min al-ʾaġniyāʾ.
----Formal Vowelled----
سارَة: كَيْفَ كان أَوَّلُ يَوْمٍ مِن البَرنامَج التَطَوُّعي؟
مينا: زُرنا الأَحيْاء الفَقيرَة حَوْلَ القاهِرَة.
تيم: إنَّهُم يَسكُنون في بيْوت صَغيرَة و مُظلِمَة جِدّاً يْا سارَة.
مينا: لَن تَتَصَوَّري حَجم المَأساة الَّتي يَعيشونَها. أَسِرَّة قَديمَة و أَثاث مُتَهالِك. الوَضعُ صَعب..
سارَة: ماذا سَتَفعَلون إذا؟
تيم: والله أَنا لا أَعرِفُ مِن أَيْنَ سَنَبدَأ حَتّى. وَلَكِن رُؤساء الفِرَق سَوْفَ يُقَسِّمونَنا إلى أَربَعِ فِرَق.
مينا: كُلَّ فِرقَة سَوْفَ تَتَوَلّى أَحَد المَهام. لا تَقلَق يْا تيم. سَوْفَ نُساعِدُهُم بالتَأكيد.
تيم: لَم أَكُن أَعرِفُ اَنَّ هُناكَ أُسَر فَقيرَة لِهَذِهِ الدَرَجَة في مِصر. بَعض البُيْوت لا يَصِلُها الماء!
سارَة: بالتَأكيد فَأَنتَ تَسكُن في الزَمالِك و هِيَ مِنطَقَة أَغلَبِيَّتُها مِن الأَغنِيْاء.
