we don’t say “kol 7ed”, u can say “salam kolkom” or “salam li lkoll” :ok:

Sifti: if it means “send” it shoud’ve been sayfti or seyfti perhaps the person just didn’t care how to spell it & it means actually “send”.
but “sifti” <— with this spelling, means: my look, my face, my manner.

Kadwi: doesn’t sound like anything exept “ka tedwi” = you’re talking/she’s talking

l9it: i found

nasali : if it’s nsali, then it’s “i finish”, if it’s nsalli, it’s “i pray”
