Subject: Needs studies on order of teaching MSA and dialect

Dear all,

Is anyone aware of studies in the field pertaining to the following:

·         Starting with MSA makes it easy and quick to move to a local
dialect

·         Starting with a local dialect makes it easy and quick to move to
MSA.

·         Learning one dialect supports and speeds up the learning of
another dialect.

Thank you.
