Darija Lessons

For example, in Darija, there are two ways to say to think: dun and fkkr. Dun more accurately means to hypothesize, but no one actually says things, “Well, I hypothesize that if you go out with your hair wet, you’ll catch your death of cold, and your uterus will fall out and you won’t be able to have babies.” Fatima gave us a bunch of examples of the different uses of dun and fkkr, and then had us write sentences for both. We also draw pictures of the verbs as a memorization tool.
