@fieldstarrealty, sorry for the late reply. Indeed this phrase can be used with very close family friends. One trick I can teach you is to not actually get up first, wait until someone else gets up from the table and hear what they say :-)

سلام عليكم.
In the title picture, written on it is ثقافة و عادات 3 ،
ثقافة means culture,
and does the word عادات mean expressions .? -
@RajulunSaaleh, وعليكم السلام
عادات is the plural of عادة and it means
habits/customs/practices
Sometimes you hear people say
صارت عادة
9aarat 3aadah
It became a habit (it refers to something feminine here, if it's masculine then you say صار instead) -
Aaa, Okay.
عادة = customs/practices .
Shukran. -
@RajulunSaaleh,
عادة is the singular form, so
عادة = custom/practice
عادات = customs/practices
;-)

This popular topic has become a trilogy of podcasts! We try to teach you those common cultural expressions that you will learn nowhere else. Today you will learn what to say when you get a visitor, when you greet a father or a mother who has a newborn child, and when you are invited to a meal.

Regarding أخلف لله عليكم can I say it even to very close family friends for instance if I am invited for a meal to my father's friends house in an Arab country can I say this after the meal? Will it be appropriate?
