Talking about certainty (being sure about something) in Saudi Arabic is very straightforward.

Here you’ll hear a Saudi (Najdi) native speaker demonstrate how it’s done.

New words:

Sure
Not sure
For sure/certainly
Sample sentences:

I’m sure you’ll pass your exam.
Are you not sure about this (it)?
For sure. We’ll do that.

Baffling Lingo

Conversation Starters #1

「おやすみなさい」は　ねるときの　あいさつの　ことばです。でも、「なさい」は　命令（めいれい）で　つかう　ことばです。子どもが　おとうさんや　おかあさんに　「ねなさい」と命令（めいれい）しているのでしょうか？　へんですよね…。どうして　ねるときに、「おやすみなさい」というようになったのか　調（しら）べてみました。
"Oyasuminasai" is a greeting word when we sleep. But "～nasai" is a word used in command. Does the child order his/her father and mother to to go bed? That's strange... so, I checked why we say "Oyasuminasai" when we sleep.
