"Good evening" in Arabic

00:00:47 - 368 kB

Arabic is a fascinating language. Look how they wish each other a good evening:

Good evening!
Masaa al-khayr! ("evening of the good")

مساء الخير

And one replies:
Good evening!
Masaa an-nuur! ("evening of the light")

مساء النور


Hey, isn't that poetic? To reply a "Good evening" with a "Good evening of the light!"
I love it!

Geem and Ha

Well, let us go on today. The next letters are comparatively easy and they are adjacent on the keyboard: Geem, Haa and Khaa.

Below I will try to type the words I spoke after Hazem. And Hazem will, hopefully, correct me tomorrow.

ج ح خ

احماض

خاضترا

جب

جالااثا

جض

Can anybody read this? I am rather sure I made a lot of mistakes ... I wanted to write: Ahmad, khadara (arrive), gebe (he travelled), galatha (set), ged (strict, rigid). If it was not correct, Hazem, would you please give below the correct spelling?
