  1. Esteban Touma:

    As a language teacher, it’s always interesting to see that some of these terms are usually new colloquialisms, or are rooted or borrowed from another language, as a non-native speaker, I must confess it’s fun to see English speakers stumbling a bit for a change.

  2. Charles Boberg of McGill University:

    The speaker is obviously a native speaker of Arabic, given the way he speaks that language and the influence it has on his English but his English is extremely fluent, to a level I would label near-native.
