how do we say " i get by" in arabic? whats the arabic way of saying "i get by" (with something) this is like a phrase in english but i wonder whats the arabic version. for example "my arabic is not great but i get by" - it means that i dont know arabic 100% but enough to live and communicate with people also in english for the same thing people say "i make do" for example "i dont have much money to spend, but i will make do with this much" - meaning i will use what i have and survive with it even though it is less i hope i havent confused anyone with this, please let me know if you know the right translation.

In some Arabic dialects we say ( أمشّي حالي) it means exactly (get by(. In the MSA I think you might say (أدّبر نفسي) or (أدّبر أموري)

you can use words and verbs depending on the phrase in English you can say : my arabic is not great but i get by or you can say : my arabic is not great but i can understand so لغتي العربية ضعيفة لكن أستطيع أن أفهم or there is a general word is : مسايرة لغتي العربية ضعيفة لكن يمكنني مسايرة الأمر لا أعرف العمل هنا لكن يمكنني مسايرة الأمر العيش في بلد آخر صعب لكن يمكنني مسايرة الأمر
