In my opinion classical arabic is pretty nice and pretty hard Remember that in dialect u also use almost the same things like: tenses ,pronouns etc ,but in a very simple way I would say not so complicated like in FoS7a

No need for tab3ak, if you say sha3rak, the ak at the end refers back to the person

Your accent is more syrian than lebanese though
