Choose Your Words Carefully

Here are some of the words which mean differently in Arabic ....

1.) BANDAR ..... its a popular name in Saudi Arabia meaning "Beautiful" .... We even have a Prince Bandar Bin Talal ... lol

2.) GADA ..... it means "A Respectful Person" ... See how things could get messed up ...

3.) GANDOOR ....... its also a name ... a last name .... u can go "Hey Gandoo" and no one will frown or kill u :)

4.) KHASM ..... it means "To Discount or To Reduce" ... with us it means Spouse right!!

5.) NEK ..... First lets look at its Urdu meaning "A Virtuous Person" ... in arabic it means "To F***"
