We are thrilled to introduce Syrian_Qwen-3.5, the first series of Large Language Models specifically fine-tuned to understand and generate the Syrian Arabic Dialect.
While most Arabic LLMs focus on Modern Standard Arabic (MSA/Fusha), they often fail to capture the nuance, warmth, and cultural specificity of local dialects. We changed that. By leveraging the powerful Qwen 3.5 architecture, we have fine-tuned this model not just to "speak Arabic," but to speak Syrian.
From the streets of Syria, this model understands the local idioms, slang, and cultural context that define Syrian communication.
🚀 Key Features
🗣️ Native Dialect: Trained specifically on Syrian colloquial data, not just MSA.
🧠 Smart & Small: Built on efficient Qwen small-model architecture for fast inference.
🤝 Community First: Open weights with a strong commitment to the open-source ecosystem.
🛠️ How to Load & Use
Getting started with Syrian_Qwen-3.5 is seamless. You can load it using the standard transformers library.
We tested Syrian_Qwen-3.5 against general-purpose models. Notice how our model captures the tone and dialect while others revert to formal Arabic or English.

"شو بتعرف عن المنطق ؟"
. المنطق بيستخدم استدلالات مختلفة متل الاستدلال الاستنتاجي والاستدلال التحليلي. الاستدلال الاستنتاجي بيستخدم القواعد والمبادئ العامة ليوصل لنتائج محددة، بينما الاستدلال التحليلي بيقوم بتحليل الأفكار والمعلومات ليوصل لفهم أعمق. المنطق كمان بيستخدم استدلالات شكلية وغير شكلية. الاستدلالات الشكلية بتستخدم قواعد ثابتة ومحددة، بينما الاستدلالات غير الشكلية بتتغير حسب السياق والمعلومات المتاحة. المنطق كمان بيستخدم استدلالات منطقية بيزيد من فهمنا للعالم اللي حولنا،
المنطق هو فرع من Logic يدرس قواعد التفكير الصحيح والاستدلال، وكيف نميّز الحجج الصحيحة من الخاطئة. يستخدم في الفلسفة والرياضيات وعلوم الحاسوب لتحليل البراهين وبناء استنتاجات دقيقة.
المنطق هو العلم الذي يدرس القواعد العامة للتفكير الصحيح، ويهدف إلى حماية العقل من الوقوع في الخطأ من خلال وضع معايير تميز بين الحجج السليمة والباطلة.
Note: the full response is too long for all models so we trimmed, the idea here is just to show that even the SOTA models cannot handle the dialect.
