السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته
hi everyone
how are you all
lately i was wondering about something
and i wonder if you want to wonder with me for a minute hhh
did you notice how some Arabic words are written in English
for example:
الرياض تكتب
Al-Riyadh
الدمام تكتب
Al-Dammam
although we do not pronounce these words like this
i think we should write:
Addammam
and
Arriyadh
لان اللام تكتب في مثل هذه الكلمات العربيه و لكنها لام شمسيه لا تنطق
لذلك ليش نكتبها بالكلمه الانجليزيه؟
فيه كلمات كثيره باللغه الانجليزيه فيها حروف لا تنطق
silent
هل نقوم بكتابتها بالعربيه ؟
لا …
اذن !!!
do you see what i see?
وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته..
lets see who’s here?
أم القوقو ؟
what a surprise !!
welcome welcome dear..
i am fine now that i am seeing a thread started by you
heres what i think..
you know whenever non-arabs pronounce arabic words.. they have a different pronounciation.. so when they try to pronounce, let’s say Al- Riyadh for example.. they don’t really say it like arabs do.. but if you hear them.. you will know what they mean.. i think if we write it Arriyadh.. then the pronounciation would differ more.. they might pronounce it in a totally different way.. which would make it really difficult to understand..
so i think writing a word closer to it’s real spelling.. would make it easier for us to understand them..
it’s only an opinion.. and it might not apply to all the words.. but it’s what i think..
Thank-you dear.. it’s a nice topic to start with.. let’s wait for others to tell us what they think
and do visit us more often
:flower: :flower:
how are you little miss stubborn
sorry i was away
thank you for your opinion
you know
you actually convinced me to a certain extent
and it is a new point of view
at least to me
thank you for sharing it with us
or shall i say with me
because i didn’t see anyone else beside you and me
hhhh
waiting for you girls…
my dear accept this fact coz u won`t change it hehehehe but i didn`t get you about the word silent !! what did you mean ? iam really wondering now lol
bye bye
i am really happy to see you here
and i am even happier because i made you wonder
ha ha ha
by silent i meant silent letters
you know
in English sometimes there are words that have letters written but not pronounced
like for example
the word
listen
we write the letter t but we don’t pronounce it
that is why it is called silent
i hope you got it
thank you for your participation
waiting for all the SILENT ladies who are reading
hhhh
