is this normal to say, and if it isn’t, who says it? which region?
chnahia = what’s this (feminine)
i found it strange when i first saw/heard it
chnahia or chnahowa is used in casablanca … its considered 3roubia
normally we say in darija chno howa or chno hia ( what is it )
3roubia ha? hhhhhhhh GREAT. thanks
hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i didnt mean by 3roubia sth bad looollll i was talkin about the accent thats all
lollll i’m laughing at the person who says chnahia, and at u too of course coz you’re tooooo racist hhh
nooooooooo come on lollll aint racist hhhhh
u know what ??? when i was in morocco i heard like 5 or 6 times ‘’ why do u speak like a casawi ? "
and i was like WTF :huh: why dont u call me3roubi better
loooool seeee others notice it too, and heyyy there’s nothing wrong with speaking like a casawi, btw it was a casawi who says chnahia, so u see there can be the combination of 3roubi + casawi…
hhhhhhhhhhhhh well casa is considered 3roubia too
and when they told me that i was smelling the sarcasm :s this is why i was shocked 
looooool ok ok safi this 3roubia and region stuff are too confusing for me…
but one last thing: if someone was to say “chnahia” or “chnahowa”, would u quickly assume they’re 3roubi or you’d say eh maybe they could be from somewhere else???
loooollll well it doesnt sound good … so i dont think someone from another region would use it
even casawi ppl try not to use it in their formal speech
oky doke i see, so i will use it a lotttt nchallah
for the purposes of confusing people
hhhhhhhhhhhhhh i can give u more words to confuse ppl hhhhhh
use rwa7 instead of aji … they will think ur from oujda or algeria hehehhehe
looool i have enough people calling me algerian… ok i’ll use it thanks brah
ur welcome
Chnahia is not 3roobia in Casa, & it means “what is it” not “what is this”
ok bro calm down 
thanks!!!
:roll: ca dep ach bghiti tgoul b 3roubia
