'ya lateef' literally: "ya" is the calling letter in Arabic & "lateef" means kind, but when said this way "ya lateef" then it refers to Allah (=God) The Egyptians mostly say this phrase when they hear bad or scary news, so its meaning is like "Oh God you're the most kind, be kind to us"

hello how are you i hope u r fine LATEEF means (kind) but we use (ya lteaf) that we asked GOD (ALLAH) to be kind with the person that we said to him ( ya lateef) so don't worry it is nice word we use it.

hey bilkis,,ahlan means welcom and YA LATIF means that u ask god to make our life good and nice but this is public word u should be egyptian to know it very well lol
