Hi all,
trying my best to learn Darija I discovered this website.
It’s simply great what you are doing here, I appreciate it very much!!
I will come back more often in the future - all the exercises and translations are really helpful for practising a little bit.
By the way, I’m a German woman and I speak french as well.
This year I was in Morokko for my second time, and again I loved the country and the people.
I hope to get there again as soon as possible…
So far, bslama, Xsara
Mr7ba bîk hna Xsara! 
Where did you travel in Morocco?
Hi Halima,
how do you reply to “Mr7ba bîk”? Shukran?
I did a two weeks round trip: Oualidia, Safi, Essouira, Marrakesh, Ouarouazate, Merzouga, Fes, Meknes, Beni Mellal, Casablanca…
It was sooooo great!!!
Welcome to the forum!
Hope u enjoy 
take care.
Thanks for your welcome. But don’t be astonished: I’m leaving for holidays right now
I will be back within two weeks.
Hopefully I will have time to study Moroccan a little bit.
CU, ou bien, A+

Wow, you travelled a lot! There are a lot of stopping points in two weeks! Didn’t you a little bit tired after such a trip?
Welcome ot the forum Xsara, I hope that you’ll find it pretty helpful.
You respond to “mr7bâ bîk” saying “Bâraka Allahu fîk” = God bless you. It’s pronounced as: Barakllahu fîk.
Are you going to Morocco for these 2 weeks?
@ Elise:
Is Halima your new name?
I would really love it become my new name! 
Abdu, our friend from Azilal, was given that name to me, telling me that now I’m a member of his family. I was with him, in the middle of his family : wife, children, mother and father… And he offered me that name, “Halima”, with all his kindness and his generosity… I’m inflaming but it was a very emotional moment for me, such as I’ve rarely known it.
Anyway, everybody there call me like that now! And I adore that name!
And do you know what it means?
I’m not sure. I believe remember that Abdu told me that Halima means any woman who like to take care of the others, who is attentive to the others.
It’s very nice
mar7ba bik Xsara ! :welcome:

Actually, Halima means patient :D. That’s your new nickname: Patient!
Back from holidays!
“Bâraka Allahu fîk” to all your welcomes (thanks, SM).
@Halima: no, it wasn’t too stressing, my trip to Maroc, it was simply great. Many places to go there again with more time…
But I also had the occasion to spend a couple of evenings with local people, including several invitations for lunch or dinner in a familiy, that was the best part of it!!!
@SM: No, this time I’ve been on a sailing trip surrounding Corsica
But I’ve still 18 days of vacations left this year, we will see if I will get the chance to go to Morocco again…
CU in the forums, thanks for this website, w Bslama, Xsara

:blink:
for someone like me who always says here that I’m impatient, it’s pretty funny and ironic…
