Marhaba! The summer season is in full swing. You might have gone on vacation already or your long earned break might be around the corner. After returning from long vacations, I immediately start planning for my next adventure. Life is very short and I plan accordingly. I encourage you to think of beautiful memories and happy times that are made during vacations, be it with family and/or friends. Given that the summer season is all about vacationing and relaxing, or at least to most people around the planet during these few months, I want to teach you the 10 most common words about vacations in Arabic. Similar to earlier posts, I am sharing these words in a fun Arabic crossword puzzle. As always, I have transliterated all the words so that you can pronounce them accurately. Stay tuned for the answers soon.
