      Obvious answer is Arabic.

      however, chances are an arabic person wouldnt understand what they say.

      I am Chinese and only 10% of the Chinese voice over makes sense, although grammarly way off.

        The mec speak arabic, they make sense from what I can make of it, but there are some grammar probs in a few lines.

            Arabic. EA said it was hard finding people to do the voice overs.

                Its Arabic, and yes there are a lot of grammar errors. I'm Egyptian and can speak/read some Arabic/Egyptian Arabic/Farci (persian) Its funny to hear them talk though, I prefer it on English though.

                  It is a dialect of Arabic most spoken in the middle east. It's highly inaccurate, and only starts to make sense if you take it very very literally.

                    PLus it takes up more memory, you don't know instantly what your team mates say, and it gets annoying. That's why i have mine all on English!

                      Its still a good attempt for a game to try and have different languages it really adds to the game, I was suprised when I first fired up MEC that it was ACTUAL arabic and I could understand it even if not spoken correctly, it still put a smile on my face.

                        You bet. Got it at a music store for 8 bucks.

                        Anyways, yeah, I figured it was Arabic, but I seem to think there's many languages spoken in the middle east so I was just making sure. In any case, I looove it. I would never switch it over to english. It may be unnaccurate, but I'm ignorant so what does it matter? (: Still adds a lot of flavour to the game, I'm really glad they did so. Hoping for some neat languages in Special Forces.

                        I never play as USMC. Nevernevernever. Die capitalist pigs! :x

                          There are many languages two of the most common are Arabic, and all those that are directly branched from arabic, and Farci which is the Persian language and also a long decident of Arabic... so to say...

                          Arabic / Farci are the most common, they are similar from the outside looking in but very different from one another...

                              Yeah thats also what I ment, I dont think theres a word for that, good example would be the thank you command, what he says is just direct english translation that doesnt make any sense in arabic, or "enemy car" which is ok in english but needs a connecting word in arabic.
