not true.
i went to only two grade schools in an arab country between 7 - 9yrs old and learned arabic in algeria (3amiya) then, continued to speak it at home and i can understand the majority of the quran. 3amiya is very closely related to fusha, theyre not COMPLETELY different, i dont noe why ppl always assume as if they are two completely different languages like chinease and english, theyre not. and ive noticed that those who usually assume this are not arab themselves. 3amiya stems from fusha, so of course it would sound pretty similar.
