Dear all,

I think it's a good topic to start sharing since we are all here form different backgrounds. Let me tell you about my language and culture.

My first language is Arabic (a native speaker of Arabic), and I speak 2 other languages too. Also, about my culture, I don't know what exactly to say, but I live in UAE (United Arab Emirates) where women wear black Abaya and men wear white dishdasha. In addition, there is a special dance movements and songs that distinguished and it calls in Arabic Razeef and Shella.
Regarding food, we have Harees, Khabees, special bread (Raqaq) and other kind of food. I think you gonna enjoy being at UAE.
:) I know some words are in Arabic, but it is good to know some Arabic words.

I would like to point out that UAE is now considered to be multicutural environment and it is changing, but still you will find customes and traditions that belong to UAE society.

Regards,
Wardaa
