The Makings of the U.S.-Iran Nuclear Deal Hours Before It Happened (2) Posted by on Jul 18, 2015 in Arabic Language

Marhaba! I still cannot believe that the world’s greatest powers and Iran have reached a historic deal! Let’s hope it is the beginning of a long journey of peace between all nations around the world. As you all know, this is an extremely important moment for millions living in the Middle East and will most certainly have repercussions beyond Iran and the Arab world. I hope you enjoyed reading the article from the previous post. Today, I am providing you with the answers to the questions as well as the translation of the sentence to English.

Salam everyone! Born as an American to two originally Arab parents, I have been raised and have spent most of my life in Beirut, Lebanon. I have lived my good times and my bad times in Beirut. I was but a young child when I had to learn to share my toys and food with others as we hid from bombs and fighting during the Lebanese Civil War. I feel my connection to Arabic as both a language and culture is severing and so it is with you, my readers and fellow Arabic lovers, and through you that I wish to reestablish this connection by creating one for you.
