Learning Kuwaiti Arabic – would you actually buy a workbook like this? 🇰🇼

[u/Careful-County-7842]

For the past month, I’ve been trying to learn Kuwaiti Arabic, and honestly, in the beginning it was quite frustrating. 😅

I found it surprisingly difficult to find good resources specifically for the Kuwaiti dialect. There are plenty of resources for MSA or other Arabic dialects, but not that many practical ones for someone who specifically wants to learn Kuwaiti Arabic.

I especially struggled to find things like PDFs, structured lessons, vocabulary lists and exercises in one place.
So I ended up doing something slightly crazy 😂 — I started making my own with help of my friends (Kuwaitis).

I created a beginner-friendly book/workbook for myself, with things like Kuwaiti Arabic vocabulary, useful everyday phrases, basic grammar, example sentences, exercises and fill-in-the-blank activities, sentence-building exercises and practical phrases you would actually use in everyday conversations.

It basically started as something I needed for myself, but now I’m turning it into an online version because I’m wondering if other people might find it useful too.
I’m thinking about putting it on an online platform and selling it for a let’s say 2KD

So I wanted to ask people here who are learning Kuwaiti Arabic:
Would you actually pay for something like this? And what would you want to see included in it?

For example, would you find sections about texting, relationships, ordering food, daily conversations, Kuwaiti slang, pronunciation, listening practice, etc. useful?
I’d really appreciate honest opinions — especially from people who are currently learning Kuwaiti Arabic or have tried to find resources for it. I’m still working on it, so I’d rather improve it based on what people actually need before putting it online. 🇰🇼❤️

I think people would definitely pay for something like that - there's always so many people asking for resources
