The Da Vinci (Arabic) code
This is dedicated to all the expats in Kuwait and Middle East who get confused when chatting with their Arab friends. I'm talking about the numbers that are used in place of certain sounds. For example you might see something like this "7alla" or "6alabat". What prompted me to write this post was when one of my friends kept referring to 'Six-al-abat" which makes no sense ! :)

Dude wtf is 7alla? That's not even a word!
