I've finished the whole MT Arabic set. In the last few lessons it taught verb forms II and V, such as
كسّر - to break (cause to break) (form II)
تكلّم - to speak (form V)
I'm going to list some examples of masdars for these forms from Turkish, so hopefully I'll remember the masdar patterns too. I want to be able to tell the grammatical category of any Turkish word that comes from Arabic.

Next on the list: Syrian Colloquial Arabic. It has 8 chapters in total. The first 2 I'll probably be able to do very fast and then I'll have to work a little harder.

I think it is common in some other Arabic countries as well, whenever someone says thank you to my professor he always answers with it (he's Iraqi) and a chatroom I used to use a lot of gulf Arabs used it but especially Saudi's.
