That was a very nice lesson now I know what I can say when my friend visits me from the gulf.
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?

@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
