Sa3eedi are people who live in a certain region in Egypt (they speak in a different accent and they are like more conservative and old-fashioned)

Is it possible the sa3eedi would go?

Ya balash is like saying "that's good" if you said "I got this shirt for free" someone may respond with a "ya balash" to show shock/amazement and that they're happy for them.. my mind is drawing blanks lol so I can't think of an equivalent phrase in English at the moment

It's mine

You didn't call or I didn't call

hello all can someone translate the following sentences in leb/syr dialect:

Who are those girls who were laughing about nothing.
Why u only asking when i will send the adress, because u don't have to send the papers to my home, cause to be honest i'm not sure if i want to make it official here.
U'r not intrested in anything, especially not in your daughter so tell me why it's so impotant to u? to be with us? we both know that ur just using me so that u can live here.

and now it's clear to me that it's not possible to change u, cause u don't listen to me, ur just doing what u want and don't think about me, and u don't see how many times u hurted my feelings.

thanks in advance
