    it was= kaan كان

    and also kol shia antaha -كل شيء انتهى -it also means it;s over ?i am so confuseeeeeeeeee

    foo2 kol shia2 فوق كل شيء -have the meaning most important,above all ??!

    l2 shia-لأ شيء -none?
    ok ana 7akon "I will be" ex: ana 7akoon nayem "I will be sleeping"
    ana ykoon is incorrect, ykoon is when you're referring to another person (male) and tkoun for female He will be/She will be
    Bykoon and betkoon also..

    In the cases above the word koun is for "be"

    Kan means "was" or "it was" like you said

    Kol shi entaha - everything is over/Kol shi: everything
    Fo2 kol shi - Right! you translated perfect also "On top of everything else" perfect for when you want to exaggerate in placing blame on someone

    La shi - nothing else/nothing/none all of it works

    You underestimate yourself dear because you are doing fantastic

    i think u mean it shia شيء

    Example:
    shia mn -any
    shia ma-something
    elshia nafsa-same thing

    shi-شيء -thing -i dnt know if is egyptian...shi i know is use in jordanian dialect

    7aga-thing-is in egyptian

    gaiez-maybe
    momkin-
    as adj means probable,posible,
    as vb -can

    All correct, and also in the last sentence.. is the same, yani see u is the same as the above
    إلى اللقاء (liqa2 should be double lam) means good bye or bye bye

    Salam same but its real meaning is peace

    Another thing, it's لا without hamz and not لأ

    you cant give what you dont have - mate2darsh te3ti 7aga msh mawgouda 3andak

    see you later - ashoufak ba3deen is the literal translation and for "see you" or by you can just say Salam since it is the most widely used now in every dialect, short for "ma3 elsalama" with peace/peace out

    Go to Poland and enough already

    p2a - ba2a.. but sometimes to act cutesie Egyptians will use P's in place of B's although there is no P in the Arabic language.. not unless you see the letter "ba" with Three dots below it.. same with the letter "Fa" when seen with three dots above its a V sound
