中国的春节，so long, so long?

بَيتِي اللي عِشْت فِيه لَمَّا كُنْت صَغِير كان بِحَارَة قَرِيبَة مِن نُص البَلَد.
كُلْ شَي كَان قَرِيب مِن البَيت والحَارَة مَا كَانَت تِنَام.
البَيت كَان عِبَارَة عَن شِقَّة كَبِيرَة و وَاسِعَة بِالطَابِق الثَالِث. 
كان فِيه خَمْسَة غُرَف وثَلَاثَة حَمَّامَات وصَالَة ومَطْبَخ.
الصَالَة وغُرْفَتَين كَانُوا كْبَار حَتَّى المَطْبَخ كَمَان.
المُشْكِلَة الوَحِيدَة فِي البَيت إنو كَان قَدِيم شْوَي وكَان دَائِمًا فِيه مَشَاكِل بالسِبَاكَة.
