I’m lucky that most of my students are understanding [with my electricity problem, my being talkative, and my frequent asking of favor :p ]. Today, I wittingly requested my student from Tunisia to translate three English greetings in his own language, the Tunisian Arabic.
Here they are:
Hello.
>Asslama. /as-le-ma/
How are you?
> Chnahwalek. /es-nah-wa-lek/
Bye.
> Beslama. /bes-le-ma/
Whew! That was difficult. Thanks Kais!
