منشن & لما what do they mean?
I've seen both words at the beginning of the expressions on comedy pages. I believe لما means when (as in situations), but not sure. Any explanations?
-Thank you!

Salam quique,
1. I believe that منشن here was meant to be منشان and it equals the word عشان as well, these words are used in Levantine Arabic to mean: for/ to be able to/ because, so it really depends where they are mentioned in the sentence to understand the exact meaning of them.
2. I totally agree with Ahamd about the word لمّا because it's a Fus'ha word beside being used in our spoken accents, and in here as you mentioned it, it means: when.

when = لمّا
but in real arabic it write " عندما "
example : when i go
عندما ذهبت \ لمّا ذهبت .
( لمّا = عندما ) in the spoken arabic
and the word " منشن " it's an English word

When = لمّا
we can say it in informal Arabic ,but عندما it's formal

If this post relates to comedy/parody accounts found on Instagram, twitter and other websites or applications,... it would mean:
منشن = (Mnshn) = mention, normally given as a request to mention whom you can associate to the post.
لما = When/Whenever,... used with parodies.

I agree with Abed and Alla, but I want to add that,
لمّا
is indeed a correct standard Arabic word, which means "not yet" (close to " لَمْ ")
لمَّا يذاكر درسَه : لم يفعله إلى وقت الحديث
Also " لمّا "-meaning when- is a clear standard word.
" فَلَمَّا أَضَاءَتْ مَا حَوْلَهُ ذَهَبَ اللهُ بِنُورِهِمْ "
