Which dialect of Arabic is most widely understood among native speakers?

I think that Egyptian is the most widely understood dialect among native Arabic speakers, because of the dominance of Egyptian Movies, songs etc. on the Arabic channels.\n\nThe most difficult “I think” to us “I’m from the Arabian <or Persian> gulf” would be the one from Morocco some times we fund it difficult to understand what they are saying.

It depends on how you separate languages from dialects. There are many different counts, but the range is between 4000 and 8000. A number of 6000 is probably about right for most purposes. If there were 6 people in the world and each spoke 1000 languages, one person would live in the Americas, one person would live in Europe and Asia, two people would live in Africa, one person would live on all the islands of Asia and the Pacific, and one person would live on the island of New Guinea.\n\nIf you count second language speakers as well as native speakers, English is the most widely used language in the world.  Mandarin Chinese (Putonghua) has the most native speakers.

the best way to learn arabic is with a teacher, a real teacher. i am sure you want to learn the msa, modern standard arabic, the official language, a language understood in the entire arabic world. anyone speaking arabic may teach you, but that would be only a dialect and that wouldn't help you much... imagine that an arabic dialect is as far from the msa as french is from latin. i've learned arabic, so i should know. good luck

Arabic because you have to read from right to left and those scripts really are mind boggling. No offense to Arabic speaking people, okay?

Georgetown University has a strong linguistics department that includes a division in Arabic linguistics. I believe Michigan State and Rochester also offer programs in Arabic linguistics.
