marhaban is marhaba in common language offering arabic in exchange for japanese
hello every one
it's well known that the spoken language or the common language or what's called in arabic "a'ammiyah" is sometimes different, specially in arabic which has slight differences between sveveral "a'ammiyah" accents in the same country ... to huge differences among some countries specially in the western part of the arab world, morroco algeria for example.

i'm from northern lebanon, my city is called tripoli, it has a distinguished accent of it's one in the "a'ammiya", wich tends to deform the A to O some times, don't be affraid i will help you in the most common "a'ammiya" that spreads in the middle east, but i need to learn japanese to.
any way here's your first mini lesson:

1- Marhaba - ha is not like in english, the h is slight and it looks like the sound that you ,make when you're cold and shivering :) i hope you gotthe idea any way it's so light
this word means hello, hola, nihao,priviet,ciao....................... or kon nitchi wa in japanese -any one here? :)-

when you say this word the answer is normaly marhaba, or Ahlen .. wich means welcom, the h here is a normal h like in "home" for example,
so from now on i will simbolize for the light h as in marhaba by number 7 because it looks like it when we write it in arabic, it's not that i'm a genius or something, it's well known among the net chatters in the arab world, while the normal h like in ahlen or "home" shall stay the same

so ....

mar7aba = marhaba with a light h very light but existing, wich means hello

the answer will be another marhaba in return, or simply ahlen

now the original arabic word is:
mar7aban (marhaban)
the original answer would be
Ahlan wa sahlan

--------------
i think it's enough for today :)

any one from japan interested in arabic please contact me
jarmuki at hc

i welcom any other friends to
but i want to learn japanese :)
i hope you liked the thread

salam
