Monday Afternoon- arabic class : Ur Mom!

After the walking tour with Prof. Sullivan, I came back to Muhandasien for the second day of Arabic class. Luckily the teacher, Hasna, is super nice! And has a good sense of humor. She puts up with our ridiculous questions and taught us how to say "your mom" in Arabic and explained that Arabic speakers mix up the "th" and the "s" sounds and have trouble saying words like "books" and "Massachausetts", so of course we spent like 20 minutes teaching her how to say them :-)

a you tube clip she played for us:
