How can I say " I'm only joking" in Egyptian Arabic? ;P
I know in Lebanese Arabic people say " bas 3am bimsa7" I'm just joking" and they call funny people "ma7dum/ ma7dume" But I don't know in Egyptian Arabic. I think in Egypt people call funny people "3sal" honey, and they say something like bethazareshshsh??? msh 3rfa! ana 3yza mosa3da.
I also want to know some words I always hear in Egyptian Arabic, what is "Tab kwayes"? is it Ok good? What is "ma adersh" mean? Does it mean " I can't" but then I hear "mosh ader" I think it the same thing.
and another word "Hader or 7ader". I'm confused! ana me7tara 2wee.

"I'm just joking" انا بهزر= ana bhazar / we call anybody is funny as mod7ek/3sal as u said
and u're right "tab kwayes= ok, good"/ (some Egyptians say I can't like what u said "ma adersh" but it's more common to say msh ader specially in Cairo and 7ader means Ok

I am just joking means : ana bas bahazar.
Tab kowayes means that's good.
ma adersh means I can't
"mosh ader" is the same like "ma adersh"
we say"hader" to approve something. For example: Can you open this door for me? the answer in egyptian arabic is "hader" in a polite way or "mashy" in an informal way.
