هي شاركت الفيديو مع المديرة، وبعدين كتبت تعليق صغير.

In Levantine Arabic, هي means she.

You often can leave the subject pronoun out, because the verb already tells you the person and gender. So:

• هي شاركت الفيديو... = She shared the video...
• شاركت الفيديو... = also possible, and still means She shared the video... if the context is clear

Including هي can make the subject clearer or more emphasized. A learner will hear both patterns in real speech.

شاركت is a past tense verb, and here it means she shared.

Breakdown:

• شارك = the verb root/form meaning to share / participate
• -ت at the end marks the past tense for I, you, or she, depending on context
• here, because of هي, we know it means she shared

In Levantine pronunciation, this is often said something like shāraket.

Because it is also a past tense verb.

• كتب = write
• كتبت = she wrote here

Just like شاركت, the ending -ت is a common past-tense ending. On its own, كتبت could mean:

• I wrote
• you (masculine singular) wrote
• she wrote

The context tells you which one is meant. Since the sentence starts with هي, it is clearly she wrote.

Because the sentence describes two completed actions in sequence:

1. she shared the video
2. then she wrote a short comment

This is very normal in Arabic, just like in English. The connector وبعدين helps show the order.

وبعدين means and then, then, or after that.

It is made of:

• و = and
• بعدين = later / then / afterwards

So وبعدين is a very common spoken Levantine way to move to the next event in a story.

In Arabic, short words like و (and) are usually written attached to the following word.

So:

• و + بعدين → وبعدين

This is completely normal. Arabic often attaches conjunctions and prepositions to the next word in writing.

الـ is the Arabic definite article, meaning the.

So:

• فيديو = a video / video
• الفيديو = the video

Since the sentence refers to a specific video, it uses الفيديو.

Also, فيديو is a borrowed word, but it still behaves like an Arabic noun when it comes to definiteness, so you can say:

• الفيديو
• بالفيديو
• للفيديو

and so on.

مع means with.

So:

• مع المديرة = with the manager / with the female director

In this sentence, شاركت الفيديو مع المديرة means she shared the video with the manager.

This is a common way in Arabic to express sharing something with someone.

Because المديرة is the feminine form.

• مدير = male manager/director
• مديرة = female manager/director

The ending ـة often marks feminine nouns in Arabic.

So if the person is a woman, المديرة is the correct form.

In Arabic, adjectives usually come after the noun they describe.

So:

• تعليق صغير = a small/short comment

This is the normal order:

• noun first
• adjective second

Compare:

• بيت كبير = a big house
• فكرة ممتازة = an excellent idea

So تعليق صغير follows the usual Arabic pattern.

Yes. In Arabic, adjectives usually agree with the noun in:

• gender
• number
• definiteness

Here:

• تعليق is masculine singular and indefinite
• صغير is also masculine singular and indefinite

So they match correctly.

If the noun were definite, the adjective would also usually be definite:

• التعليق الصغير = the short comment

Arabic does not have a separate word for a / an.

So:

• تعليق صغير can mean a short comment
• it is indefinite simply because it does not have الـ

That is a big difference from English.

Compare:

• تعليق = a comment / comment
• التعليق = the comment

It is very close to something that would be understood in both, but it feels natural in spoken Levantine because of وبعدين and the overall style.

A more formal MSA version might be something like:

• هي شاركت الفيديو مع المديرة، ثم كتبت تعليقًا صغيرًا.

Main differences:

• ثم is more formal than وبعدين
• MSA may show case endings in careful writing, like تعليقًا صغيرًا
• spoken Levantine usually drops those endings

So your original sentence is very natural for everyday speech.

A common rough pronunciation would be:

hiyye شاركت il-video maʿ il-mudīre, w baʿdēn katabet taʿlīʔ zghīr

A few helpful notes:

• هي is often pronounced hiyye
• الـ before foreign words like الفيديو is often pronounced il-
• كتبت is often heard as katabet
• صغير in Levantine is often zghīr, not the MSA-style ṣaghīr

Pronunciation varies by region, but this is a useful Levantine-style approximation.

Yes, it can.

You could say:

• هي شاركت الفيديو مع المديرة، وبعدين كتبت تعليق صغير.
• هي شاركت الفيديو مع المديرة، وبعدين هي كتبت تعليق صغير.

The second version repeats هي, which can add emphasis or clarity, but it is often unnecessary if the subject is already obvious.

Arabic commonly omits repeated subject pronouns when the meaning is clear.

A common Levantine way is to put ما before the past tense verbs.

For example:

• هي ما شاركت الفيديو مع المديرة، وبعدين ما كتبت تعليق صغير.

That means:

• She didn’t share the video with the manager, and then she didn’t write a short comment.

In everyday speech, negation patterns can vary a bit by region, but ما + past verb is a very useful Levantine pattern to know.
