Conversational Arabic - Wanted

ShaunDubai · #1 (**permalink**) 15th March 2011, 01:57 PM

I'm hoping to find a native Arabic speaker in Dubai, to practice conversation with as part of a language exchange for my English (I'm British).

I'd like to meet face to face once or twice a week over coffee and/or shisha - ideally in Emirates Hills, Marina or Al Barsha areas.

Hey Maze. Thank you very much for suggesting Speak7 - I'll definitely try it.
A pity you can't meet face to face

but if you know anyone who can, I'd be pleased to meet them!

Hi
That’s very funny to ask to meet people who speak Arabic; we are supposed to be in Arab country

, anyway as I have nothing to do in the week except working , I’ll definitely will not refuse a shisha, PM me for details.
