"Kulshi" meaning? I have heard the phrase "kulshi tamam" to mean "everything is ok." So I thought kulshi meant "everything" or "all." Just recently I heard an Iraqi phrase "Shako mako" ("what's new?") and the response "Kulshi mako" to mean "nothing is new." What does kulshi mean? Nothing or everything?

It's better not to learn many dialects at the same time, especially at the beginning:)

I think that the origin of the words shu ku ma ku is shu yakun ma yakun....cause in other dialects they also say "shu fi ma fi ? "...( though I'm not sure but I can't thing of another origin of this words o_O) shu شو= what ( in dialect ) fi في= is (there) (also in dialect) ma ما= not yakun يكون = be/exist so both mean like "what is there what's not ?" or ( what's being what's not ) kulshi maku= everything is not there ( so it means there is nothing new) you could also answer: maku shi = there is nothing shi شيء= something or a thing hope it's kind of clear :)

It means everything. كل شيء When I ask you : How it's going ?or what's up ? you say :"kulshi tamem""كل شيء تمام" tamem or "bikher" or"mnih" mean good. Good luck
