Well done. :) Isn't it a DIFFICULT language, no matter which dialect we are talking about? Don't you agree?
Yes, I agree.
And i should add I can barely read or write it at all.
Pretty much just a spoken language for me, partly because Darija doesn't have an official written form.

True: spoken Arabic(colloquial) is VERY different from the written (classical), unlike other languages whereas one speaks, reads write the same thing 99% of the time. Know what I mean? ;)

Yes, and Moroccan Arabic is the furthest from the classical.
Grammatically a terrible mess.

Do you mean these:

Don't you like them? I do but they're NOT at all healthy. I buy the "diet/light" ones.
They vary quite a bit.
They're okay to get calcium into children if you like to do that sort of thing.
A friend stayed at a hotel here and had a meal. Afterwards he asked if they had a cheeseboard.
"Of course!" said the waiter and proudly brought the 'cheeseboard'; a poor Edam copy and Laughing Cow triangles! (other brands of triangular gloopy cheese are available".
