(Credit to a very funny video I watched called 9 things Lebanese people do)❤️🇱🇧

Lebanese people alwaysss talk with their hands, eyebrows , head etc etc. 😂😂

Don't know what I mean?

Okay let me explain...(ahh me and my explanations. 😂)

- Okay gesture #1
The eyebrows
Arabs whenever they want to say "no" they raise their eyebrow up and then make a noice with their mouths. I don't know explain but it's like a "tuh" sound idk😂

- Gesture #2
The hand of death
Don't know what I mean? Oh trust me I'm sure you do! So you know how like Italian people...
"Colette why are you talking about Italians this is a Lebanese book."
"Shut up and listen"
So you know when Italian people are talking or someone tries to mimic them and they put their 4 fingers up. If you don't know what I mean refer to chapter 27 called "The Hand" 😘
Anyways, Well you see, Arab parents use this as a single of they are going to kill you in .2 seconds if you don't behave. They usually say something like "ba2dain" as in "later" as in "boy later you gon get yo ass whooped cause I warned you ya hmar"

-Gesture #3
Biting your bottom lip
This basically is a signal that we give to others to show them that they are embarrassing themselves. Usually parents do this to their children as a way of them saying "t7ezab" which means kinda like "behave" as in stop what you are doing because you are embarrassing me. And you gon get it later for embarrassing me😂

-Gesture #4
The noice of pain
When Lebanese people are in pain, they make a noice. Yes I know what you are thinking, "colette everyone makes a noice when they are in pain..."
oh but Lebanese people make this noice even in the slightest of pains because we are very over dramatic people 😂 I don't even know how to explain this noice but I'm sure you know what I mean, because well your Arab...! You do it too😂 I know I do 🙋🏻 the noice is like "ukhhhh" I don't know if you can explain better please comment 😂

Well habibis that's all I have right now for our many body gestures. I hope you all enjoyed ❤️

On a serious note guys, I'm sorry I haven't posted in a while. My Teta recently passed away and it's been really hard on me. 😞 and the family of course. So my life has been kind of hectic right now.

I just wanted to say I love you Teta and it was a blessing living with you my whole life. I hope you are watching me from heaven. ❤️

Thank you to all my habibis for being patient with me I love you so much. 🇱🇧❤️
