....learning languages, now if you were to ask me if the Egyptian dialect was Arabic, I'd answer yes. I see it as a widely familiar form of colloquial Arabic, spread notably by Egyptians like Yusuf Almaghribi, and later reformer/ secular intellects. But if you'd ask about the "Egyptian Language", I'd respond differently.
Anyway, as per sociolinguists, the Egyptian dialect is considered a distinct variety of Arabic. So, by no means it'd be considered Classical Arabic (nor Modern Standard Arabic).
