My friend Claudette in San Diego is providing me with Arabic lessons. I thought I would share some with you. Thanks, Claudette!!
"Here are some arabic words to go with your tea time;
tea: chai
milk: hallib
sugar: sucre
give me: attini
filled cookies: ma'amoul
and of course you know baklava"
subbi is a boy, ibin is son, bint is a girl.
One of our "Windtalkers" (yes, just like the movie and WWII) is teaching us on Tuesday mornings. But it is boring medical terms. Claudette's is much more useful!!
