Gerabic!
(‘jǝr - ə-bik)
I love studying Arabic. It's been a lot of work, but fun too. It's pretty amazing to me that I can now read the whole alphabet. I've even figured out how to type in Arabic on my computer. Check it out!
!صباح الخير (Good Morning!)
رايتشل كارن (that's my name in Arabic) :)
Anyway, the funny part about studying this new language, is that whenever I don't know a word for something in Arabic, I spontaneously think of the German word that I am trying to come up with! It's soooo annoying and unhelpful, but it's also making me realize how much German I still remember from back in the day.
Like for example, we (were supposed to have) learned the question words, WHO, WHERE, WHAT last week. Instead of من , اين, ماذا I kept thinking: Wer? Woher? Was? - so not helpful.
O الله, hilf mir! (God help me!)
