ONE ARABIC WORD A DAY

I open this new topic and I hope my Arabi friends are going to improve it :

Today’s words is :

أَلْكَلِمَة AL KALIMA = THE WORD

i can get the point patrick,, what do u mean ? can u make it clear??

MIFTAH = KEY مِفْتاح

قصر qaSir = CASTLE

كِتَاب KITAB = BOOK

Since today is a holiday in the US – what is holiday in Arabic?

ottla عطلة

celebration:أحتفال
ehtefal

يَوْم YAWM = DAY

أَلْيَوْم AL YAWM = THE DAY or TODAY

أَلْ = THE both singular and plural and both masculine and feminine

LAYLA (feminine) = NIGHT لَيْلَة

I am really enjoying this, its interesting to learn some new word in a language I most definitely don’t understand. Every tme I here arabic in a movie or something, I’m astonished by the speed of speech…and the fact that I don’t understand it, makes me want to. THANKS PATRICK AND IMAN!!!!

Yes, thank you Patrick and Iman!

This is great, I agree with Susan…this is very interesting and I enjoy reading this post! Thanks Patrick and Iman.

So…I’d love the word for THANK YOU…

That way we would be able to thank you properly.

Sue

شُكْران SHUKRAN / ŠUKRAN = THANKS (the Arabic word is adverbial) = “thankfully”

Shukran Patrick and Iman!

Shukran very much guys…I mean it…I’m loving this!!!!!

Sue

one : wahed / واحـــد

This is great. Shukran! :)

alsalam alykom :) I agree this is great :)
Please keep it up
Kallemna = talk to us
maa el salama

Thank you for the Arabic but can you tell me…what is the sentence for " You are special"? I want to use that with students at school.

What is the last bit? lol :)

sorry :P
these are typical arabic greetings
you say alsalam alykom when you first greet someone it means peace be upon you
and then maa el salama when you are leaving or saying goodbye it means go in peace
:)

It would be better to write it also with arabic letters and diacritics. Could you do it ?

Thanks Michelle :)

maa el salama!
