โ Quick Questions (Because We Know You Have Them)
Wait, Zohran Mamdani actually won the mayoral election?
Yes! Zohran just became NYC's first Muslim mayor. This site is a playful celebration of what his historic win means for NYC's linguistic and cultural diversity. We're not affiliated with his campaignโjust excited New Yorkers who think learning some Arabic phrases is a fun way to celebrate the moment.
So why should I actually learn these phrases?
Because Arabic is one of the most spoken languages in NYC, and if you can't say "Mabrook" at your local halal cart, are you even from here? Plus, whether Zohran wins or not, knowing a few phrases makes you a better neighbor. Also, the vibes are immaculate.
How do I actually pronounce "Zohran Mamdani"?
ZOH-rahn maam-DAH-nee. The "Zo" is like "so" with a Z. Don't overthink itโjust say it with confidence like you're ordering a chopped cheese.
Is "Alhamdulillah" only for religious stuff?
Technically it means "praise be to God," but culturally it's used for literally everything good. Your team won? Alhamdulillah. Found a parking spot? Alhamdulillah. Survived another week? You guessed it. It's the ultimate gratitude expression, no cap.
