how to say " im curious to know " in arabic? i find that the word فضولي is translated as both "curious" and "nosy" but i am doubting the use of the word for the meaning of "curious" because the word curious does not necessarily mean mean a bad trait, but being "nosy" is always associated with negative connotations, so i would like to know if we are talking about a child for example, and want to say "this child is curious and asks many questions" would we say he is فضولي or is there a more appropriate word to use to mean "curious" i hope my question is clear
