[سلام (salam) ] This is Chaima. Welcome to Arabic weekly words. Let’s find out today’s or this week’s topic. It’s computer words. Useful, [ كلمات الحاسوب (kalimat al7assoub)] or [الكلمات التي لها علاقة بالحاسوب (al kalimat al llaty laha 3ala9a bil7assoub)] |
first word is |
1. |
كلافيي |
it means keyboard. |
In Darija, mostly for computer words, we use the French word or the word that’s close to the French word. |
So keyboard in French is [klâvyî ] and most Moroccan people just call the keyboard [klâvyî ]. |
A sentence like this would be |
الْكلَافيي الْأمريكي مختلف جدّاعلَى الكلَافي ي |
الْفرنسي. |
lklafyî l’amrîkî mukhtalif jiddan 'lâ lklafyî lfaransî. |
The American keyboard is so different from the French keyboard. |
Next word |
2. |
سوري |
it means mouse and |
again we use a French word. We say [sûrî] because mouse in French is [sûrî]. |
A sentence with this would be |
ما 'رفتش فين هي لَا سوري ديالي. |
ma'raftsh fin hiyya lâ sûrî dyâlî. |
I don’t know where my mouse is. |
Next word |
3. |
سماعة الرأ س |
headphones [lîzîkutûr ] means head. |
In Darija, we say again the French word all the time and we say [lîzîkutûr ] or [lîzîkutûr ] |
عندي جوج ديال ليزيكتور وحدين بيضين وْ |
وحدين كحلين. |
indi jûj dyâl lizîkutûr waHdîn biDîn w waHdîn kiHlîn. |
I have two headphones. Ones are black and the other ones are white. |
4. |
سيت |
it means website. |
Again we say the French word we say [sît] commonly people say [sît]. |
The word for site in French |
كانضنّ بأنّ فايسبوك هو السّيت الّي كيزورو ه |
أكبر عدد منّاس يوميّا. |
kanDun bi’anna faysbûk huwa ssît llî kayzûrûh ’akbar ‘adad min nnâs yawmiyyan. |
I think that Facebook is the most visited website like daily. I think this is true. |
