The War and Treaty’s Michael and Tanya Trotter grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, and Washington, DC, respectively, but both have family roots in the South. They also grew up in the musical traditions of their churches – Tanya in the Black Baptist Church and Michael in the Seventh Day Adventist Church – where they learned the power of song to move people. After becoming a father at a very young age, Michael eventually joined the armed forces and served in Iraq and Germany, where he took up songwriting as a way of dealing with his experiences there. Meanwhile Tanya embarked on a singing and acting career after a breakthrough appearance in Sister Act 2 alongside Whoopi Goldberg and Lauryn Hill. Now, after a long and sometimes traumatic journey, Michael and Tanya are married, touring, winning all sorts of awards, and set to release their fifth album together, and their fourth as The War and Treaty. Sid talks to Michael and Tanya about the new record, Plus One , as well as their collaboration with Miranda Lambert, what it was like to record at FAME studios in Muscle Shoals, and how they’re blending country, soul, gospel, and R&B.

Reading Statistical Graphs in Arabic 2:46

13 päivää sitten2:46

2:46

Reading statistical graphs in Arabic is quite similar to reading them in English. The main difference is the language of the labels and text. Here are some key points to keep in mind:1. Title and Axis Labels: The title of the graph and the labels on the axes will be in Arabic. Make sure you understand the terms used.2. Direction: Arabic is read from right to left. This might affect how you interpret the graph, especially if it's a bar graph or a timeline.3. Numbers: Arabic uses both Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, etc.) and Eastern Arabic numerals (١, ٢, ٣, etc.), so be familiar with both.Here's a quick reference for some common terms you might see:- المحور السيني (Al-Mihwar Al-siini) – X-Axis- المحور الصادي (Al-Mi7war Al-Sadi) – Y-Axis- العنوان (Al-3unwaan) – Title- النسبة (Al-Nisba) – Percentage- العدد (Al-3adad) – NumberBy familiarizing yourself with these terms, you'll be better prepared to read and understand statistical graphs in Arabic.

SHU ZAKI or SHU ZAAKI? 2:54

7 weeks sitten2:54

2:54

In Levantine Arabic, people say “شو ذكي” (shū zakī) in Levantine Arabic to express admiration for someone’s intelligence. It translates to “How smart!” or “So smart!” and is commonly used in various contexts to compliment someone’s cleverness or smart actions. For example, if someone comes up with a brilliant solution to a problem, you might say “شو ذكي” to acknowledge their intelligence. However, the phrase “شو ذكي” (shū zaki) isn’t typically used to describe something as smart. Instead, people would more commonly use phrases like “هالبرنامج كتير ذكي” (hal-barnāmej ktīr zakī) for “This program is very smart” or “الفكرة كتير ذكية” (il-fikra ktīr zakīye) for “The idea is very smart.” The expression “شو زاكي” (shū zākī), with a long aa, however, is used to describe food as delicious or tasty. It translates to “How delicious!” or “So tasty!” This phrase is commonly used when someone wants to express how much they enjoyed a particular dish. For example, if you taste a delicious meal, you might say “شو زاكي” to compliment the food.
