المرشح مش بس واثق، كمان مناسب للوظيفة الشاغرة.

It means not only ... but also.

So:

• مش بس واثق = not only confident
• كمان مناسب للوظيفة الشاغرة = also suitable for the vacant position

In Egyptian Arabic, مش بس ... كمان is a very common spoken pattern for adding emphasis.

You can think of it as:

• He’s not just X, he’s also Y.

Another common Egyptian variation is مش بس ... ده كمان ..., which is a little more emphatic.

Because in Arabic, the verb to be is usually not expressed in the present tense.

So:

• المرشح واثق literally looks like the candidate confident but it means the candidate is confident

And:

• المرشح مناسب means the candidate is suitable

This is completely normal in both Egyptian Arabic and Modern Standard Arabic.

If you wanted the past, then Arabic would use a verb:

• المرشح كان واثق = the candidate was confident

مش is the normal Egyptian Arabic way to say not in sentences like this.

Since this is a present-tense sentence with no written is, Egyptian uses مش to negate it:

• المرشح واثق = The candidate is confident
• المرشح مش واثق = The candidate is not confident

Here it appears in the expression مش بس:

• مش بس = not only / not just

This is very natural in Egyptian Arabic.

المرشح means the candidate.

A few useful things about it:

• مرشح = candidate
• المرشح = the candidate

In Egyptian pronunciation, the definite article ال is usually pronounced el-, so you’ll often hear something like el-morashshaḥ.

If the candidate were female, you would say:

• المرشحة = the female candidate

Yes. واثق means confident and functions like an adjective here.

So:

• المرشح واثق = the candidate is confident

Grammatically, words like واثق often come historically from active participles, but for a learner it is easiest to treat it as an adjective meaning confident / self-assured.

If the subject were feminine, it would usually become:

• واثقة

For example:

• المرشحة مش بس واثقة، كمان مناسبة... = The female candidate is not only confident, but also suitable...

Because مناسب agrees with المرشح, which is masculine singular.

So:

• المرشح = masculine singular
• مناسب = masculine singular adjective

If the subject were feminine:

• المرشحة
• مناسبة

Example:

• المرشحة مش بس واثقة، كمان مناسبة للوظيفة الشاغرة.

So the adjective form changes to match the noun it describes.

للوظيفة means for the job / for the position.

It is made of:

• لـ = for / to
• الوظيفة = the job / the position

Together:

• للوظيفة = for the job

The reason it becomes للـ is that the preposition لـ joins to the definite article ال.

So:

• ل + الوظيفة becomes
• للوظيفة

This is very common in Arabic spelling.

In this sentence, مناسب لـ... means suitable for...

الشاغرة means vacant, open, or available.

It describes الوظيفة:

• الوظيفة = the job / position
• الوظيفة الشاغرة = the vacant position / the open job

Why is it الشاغرة and not شاغر?

Because وظيفة is a feminine noun, so the adjective must also be feminine:

• masculine: شاغر
• feminine: شاغرة

So the agreement is:

• الوظيفة الشاغرة = feminine noun + feminine adjective

Because in Arabic, when an adjective describes a definite noun, the adjective also becomes definite.

So:

• وظيفة شاغرة = a vacant job
• الوظيفة الشاغرة = the vacant job

This is a very important Arabic pattern:

• indefinite noun + indefinite adjective
• definite noun + definite adjective

That is why both words carry الـ here.

Yes, but the phrasing would be a little different.

In Egyptian Arabic, مش بس ... كمان is already a complete and natural way to say not only ... but also.

You may also hear:

• مش بس واثق، لكن كمان مناسب...
• مش بس واثق، ده كمان مناسب...

All of these are understandable, but مش بس ... كمان is very common and natural in Egyptian speech.

So the original sentence sounds fine and idiomatic.

Because كمان here means also / in addition, and it introduces the second quality.

So the structure is:

• مش بس واثق = not only confident
• كمان مناسب للوظيفة الشاغرة = also suitable for the vacant position

Putting كمان before the second adjective is a normal way to highlight the added point.

You can think of it as:

• He is not just confident; he is also suitable for the position.

A natural Egyptian-style pronunciation would be roughly:

el-morashshaḥ mesh bas waseʔ, kamān monāseb lel-wazīfa esh-shāghra

A few pronunciation notes:

• الـ is often pronounced el-
• مش sounds like mesh
• بس sounds like bas
• كمان sounds like kamān
• للوظيفة is often heard as lel-wazīfa
• الشاغرة may sound like esh-shāghra in connected speech

You do not need perfect transliteration, but it helps to notice how words connect naturally in spoken Egyptian.

It would usually become:

المرشحة مش بس واثقة، كمان مناسبة للوظيفة الشاغرة.

Changes:

• المرشح → المرشحة
• واثق → واثقة
• مناسب → مناسبة

The phrase للوظيفة الشاغرة stays the same, because it refers to the job, not the candidate.

So the full meaning would be:

• The female candidate is not only confident, but also suitable for the vacant position.
