As you\u2019re learning Arabic, you\u2019re likely to come across some versatile words that you\u2019ll wish you had learned earlier.<\/span><\/p>\n

Take the word <\/span>ya\u02bbnee<\/span>\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> for instance.<\/span><\/p>\n

Spend any time in an Arab country and you\u2019ll likely hear <\/span>ya\u02bbnee<\/span>\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> being used everywhere from the classroom to the coffee shop.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, if it\u2019s used so much by Arabs today, what does it actually mean? Well, don\u2019t bother with Google Translate, because it will tell you that <\/span>ya\u02bbnee<\/span>\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> means, well, \u201cmeans\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Still, in researching the word, we found that it\u2019s more than just another way of saying \u201cI mean\u201d or \u201cThat is to say\u201d; rather, and perhaps more importantly, its meaning depends more on what the speaker really wants to convey.<\/span><\/p>\n

ya\u02bbnee<\/span>\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> , look at these four examples of how it\u2019s used, and we think you\u2019ll see what we mean:<\/span><\/p>\n

The Arabic \u201cum\u201d<\/span><\/h1>\n


<\/b><\/p>\n

Probably the reason you\u2019ll hear this word most often in the everyday conversation of Arabs is that they often use it as filler words. Much like native English speakers stretch out \u201cum\u201d when they are trying to figure out what to say, Arabs will stretch out ya\u02bbnee\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> . For example, \u201cUmmm, I think that car is a little too expensive for my wallet\u201d in Arabic would be:<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> \u0623\u064e\u0639\u062a\u064e\u0642\u0650\u062f \u0623\u064e\u0646\u0651\u064e \u0647\u064e\u0630\u0650\u0647\u0650 \u0627\u0644\u0633\u0651\u0650\u064a\u0651\u064e\u0627\u0631\u064e\u0629\u064e \u0628\u0627\u0647\u0650\u0638\u064e\u0629\u064f \u0627\u0644\u062b\u0651\u064e\u0645\u064e\u0646\u0650 \u0628\u0650\u0627\u0644\u0646\u0651\u0650\u0633\u0628\u064e\u0629\u0650 \u0644\u0650\u0645\u0650\u062d\u0641\u064e\u0638\u064e\u062a\u064a.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll most likely hear this in the classroom when someone wants to say \u201cI mean\u201d, \u201cthat is to say\u201d, \u201cin other words\u201d, or \u201cfor example\u201d. It\u2019s then that you can see how Arabs use the word so versatilely. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/b><\/p>\n

Sometimes when it is joined with other words and used in a passionate conversation, ya<\/span>\u02bbnee<\/span>\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> in both good and bad ways.<\/span><\/p>\n

For instance, when used as <\/span>ya\u02bbnee lee<\/span>\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a \u0644\u064a<\/span>\u201d the \u201cmeans\u201d becomes \u201cmeans so much\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, when it\u2019s used as \u201c<\/span>ya\u02bbneek<\/span>\/ <\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a\u0643\/  <\/span>ya\u02bbnee lak<\/span> \/\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a \u0644\u064e\u0643\u064e<\/span>\u201d or \u201cinterest you\u201d, as in \u201chow does this interest you?\u201d then it brings back \u201cmean\u201d as in \u201cmean girls\u201d as its definition, it can often be seen as a biting remark.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s a Mood<\/span><\/h1>\n

Do any of you remember mood rings \u2013 the novelty jewelry with a stone that would turn colors according to your mood? If it was blue, you were calm. If it were black, let others be warned!<\/span><\/p>\n

Think of ya\u02bbnee\/<\/span>\u064a\u064e\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> as a mood interjection (interjections are words that show emotions like \u201cHey!\u201d \u201cWow!\u201d and \u201cYikes!\u201d for those of you who need a reminder).<\/span><\/p>\n

Like mood rings, the inflection in which you say <\/span>ya\u02bbnee<\/span>\/<\/span>\u064a\u0639\u0646\u064a<\/span> will let your listeners know exactly your mood. For example, there is a big difference between \u201cUgh! This pizza tastes horrible!\u201d and \u201cWow! This pizza is awesome!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
