Yep.
Most Asian women (esp the older ones) have an unhealthy attachment to their gold. I really dont understand it.

[i]younger sis was reading the Ali and Jam article in the lastest edition[/i]

sis: Why they talking about Xena warrior princess for? (for those of you who dont know who Xena is, she is the female version of Hercules)

me: :S where show me?

me: lol no thats not Xena warrior princess but zina.

sis: whats that?

me: read on and you will find out.

No not the gum drop buttons! – Gingy

The word for Pure is also 'Zina' in Arabic (with different emphasis, more like 'Ziina')

Makes you realise you have to be careful with your tajweed or you may end up causing offence!

Don't just do something! Stand there.

I thought Pure was Tahir.

Chin up, mate! Life's too short.

Slighlty off the point. But don't you think if a word/name begins with Zi there's a sense of evil attatched to it?
You know, Zionism, Zina, General Zia (he's the guy they blew up in his plane).

Chin up, mate! Life's too short.

Many words, many meanings.

I thought Zeena(t) was beauty or something?

"Zina" is pronounced more like "Zinaa"

Jameel or Jameela means beauty I think.

You missed out the word "also". There can be many words and phrases that mean the same/similar things.

Jamal means camel, jamaal means beauty

I don't know how to say 'beautiful camel' in Arabic (yet, insha'Allah)!

LOL, I just remembered my friend telling me they went to the market to buy half a pound of chicken, but ordered half a pound of heaven instead! (dunno what the arabic words used were)

Mid year class assessment.

Senior Management: So, are there any groups of children who are over achieving in your class?
Me: Yeah, the Pakistani children.
Senior Management: And what group of children are under achieving in your class?
Me: The white working class.
Senior Management: And is that because you, yourself are a Pakistani?
Me: ??!!
Senior Management: Well surely there is a reason...
Me: IMO the reason is because, Aalia's mum tells me that she wants Aalia to be a Docter and asks for extra H/W whilst Charlies mum comes to pick up Charlie as high as a kite, dragging along five kids, all of whom have different dads and is regularly F'ing and B'linding in front of the kids.
Senior Management: OK. Point taken.

I was very, VERY annoyed.

Me: So class, today the letter sounds we're looking at is 'ss' - like boss, kiss, moss etc...does anyone know any other words which contain'ss'
Jordan: Tosser!

That kid must have experienced some top notch parenting...

Do you think this could have a negative impact in later life?

ftr, my opinion on homework is that it should be made illegal.

True. Some parents are OTT like that. Especially the Paki's.

At primary level H/W shouldnt even be stressed so much.

I've had parents ask me to help their kids become a docter...and I'm like "But he's five years old!"

primary school most definately. Maybe one or two pieces in year 6 to prepare you for secondary school, but that's it.

(im guessing that its) jamalun jameel

Al Kalimah Jadeedah: Jamal, Jameel (new words: Camel, Beautiful)

May Allah shine sweet faith upon you this day and times beyond. May your heart be enriched with peace, and may your home be blessed always. Ameen.

I have Arab friends, and I said to them "What if someone comes up to you and says 'Anti fatatoun jameela! (You are a beautiful girl)' What would you do?"

They all said they would smack this smart alec.

Chin up, mate! Life's too short.

What does that supposed to mean?

There's another Arabic diss I know, "Anta luti!"
Anta means you are (male) and you can probably work out what luti means. Think of Lut (pbuh).

Chin up, mate! Life's too short.

"Luti" itself is not an insult and IMO it should not be used as one. Prophet Lut (as) was a prophet. Following him would be the right thing to do for the people of his time. Unfortunately, a lot of people didn't. So, it is the non luti's you have to worry about...

I know it shouldn't be used to describe them, but in Arabic that word is used, whether we like it or not. Literally it doesn't make sense.

Your father I am!

I was talking to my friend on the phone, I will change his name to Columbo for now, because he shares his name with a (different) famous TV detective.

[b]Me:[/b] So how are you?
[b]Columbo:[/b] Yeah, man. Cool, man. I'm just a bit worried cos I still haven't found a you-know-what.
[b]Me:[/b] O, so your still job hunting, yeah?
[b]Columbo:[/b] Shh... not so loud. I don't want my colleagues to know my business, innit.
[b]Me:[/b] You DO know they can't hear my side of the conversation over the phone, don't you?
[b]Columbo:[/b] O yeah. Cool, man. Well anyway, I'm still looking for a J-O-B, innit.
[b]Me: [/b]You DO know most of your colleagues can spell, don't you?
[b]Columbo:[/b] O yeah. I just don't want them knowing my business, innit.
[b]Me:[/b] Err...great. Anyway...
