The dialogue could continue:
!على أي حال, صديقي, نحن أخوان...سلفني عشرة جنيه
"Anyway, my friend, we are brothers...lend me 10 pounds!" -
Or like this
نعم, هو بخيل, ولكن أنت, صديقي, كريم
ماذا أردت؟
فقط أحتاج مليون
- Yes, he's stingy, but you, my friend, are generous
- What do you want?
- I only need a million.

Being stingy is considered very negative in the Arab culture as generosity has always been encouraged and has actually become part of the actual culture. For example, culturally you offer guests drinks and confectionary like dates even if you are poor and in need of such items. However, sometimes people are accused of being stingy because of resentment, like the guy in today's dialogue. Join us in the podcast where we talk about stinginess and generously talk about all the words related to the dialogue.
