Subject: jiim as giim in Al-Kitaab Query

When I asked my t.a. why I heard the jeem as a [geem] again and again in
one of the reading passages in 'al-kitab part two', she said that there
are more that one 'm.s.a's.  Is there such a thing as modern standard
arabic dialectology?!?!  Or is it the confidence of the Egyptian dialect?

all the best,

Benjamin David Troutman
