Thanks so much for the lesson, you have presented it in a great way. I couldn’t do it the way you did, it's perfect

I've got some little stuff to add, hope you don't mind my friend

Quote:
Hamza above yaa' = ئ
It's also called Hamza 3ala naberah, in case anyone encounters it said in this way, it's just the same.

Quote:
In Egyptian Arabic qaaf is usually pronounced as hamza (except in words like quraan).
That's totally true, Here are some more qaaf pronunciations
In Lebanon, syria, Jordan and Palestine qaaf is pronounced as Hamza
In the Arabian Gulf, Morocco, Algeria and Libya qaaf is pronounced as the letter g in English like in the word "game".
In Tunisia quaf is pronounced as the Fos7a qaaf.

I know your lesson is about Hamza not qaaf, but It just came up while reading your post, hope this doesn’t annoy you.

Thanks again Jonne for the lesson
