this apply for weekdays, but on weekend (thursday & friday) different. pas solat subuh tido
balik bangun pukul 8 & think what to do on that day.
at work, most of the time pak arab guna bahasa arab pasar. so normally there are certain
thing that outsiders dont understand even they have knowledge in formal arabic language.
macam org melayu ni kalau tahu cakap bahasa arab, diorang akan tanya " why are u speaking
official arabic" agaknye dia dengar kita cakap arab macam pembaca berita arab kot.
nemermind, still learning bahasa arab pasar punye style, contoh:

kalau nak cakap selamat datang:
bahasa official "ahlan wasahlan"
kalau bahasa pasar "marhaba"
habis2 bahasa pasar "arrhabb!"
there u go... hhehehe

lagi satu tanya khabar:
1. official
kaifa haluka? (apa khabar)
ana bikhair alhamdulillah (saya baik, alhamdulillah)

2. pasar style
Kaifa haaluk? (apa khabar)
toyyiib (baik)'yang ni kena bunyi macam iklan kurma yusuf taiyoob' hhehehe

kat tempat kerja, bila ada supplier ke contractor ke kalau sesama arab memang diorang cakap
arab, so kita ni yang ada basic arab pun boleh terpinga-pinga, hapekemendenya pak arab ni
cakap! lagi2 kalau melibatkan engineering part lagi la lintang pukang. tapi ada masa pak
arab ni cakap english, ada yang bunyi macam american, tak kurang gak yang bunyi macam
orang2 jahat dalam citer hollywood yang jadi terrorist hahaha... for example "true lies" & latest "flight plan".
thats all for now!
