    Someone did a post about the numbers instead of letters :

    http://www.allthelyrics.com/forum/ar...rs-number.html

    You can take a look in some songs in you tube, and you'll understand it faster

    If you search for exemple the song of Amr Diab "Banadik Taala" , you can have "Banadik Ta3ala"

    Or Cheb mami "Ana waalech", you have "Ana W3lach "

    dellali : i think it means my love/my fate something like that
    layali = nights
    omri = my life/my love
    ana = I, me
    nebghik = I love/want you
    goulti = you said (when you talk to a woman)

    "Who can write the algerian alphabet? I want to learn to write and talk algerian. "

    There is no "algerian" alphabet. It's arabic alphabet

    Here is a book on spoken Algerian. Unfortunately it is rather expensive. If you are lucky it can be found as a second hand book somewhere on the internet.
