Egypt is known to the world for its Pyramids and Sphinx, and its Pharonic Culture. Now, we live in a much modernised country; and still retain our heritage.
All I can say at the moment about Egypt is that the language its citizens speak is Arabic, its main religion is Islam (and there are Christians as well) and its population is about 76 millions. Its climate used to be moderate both at summer and winter; but for the last few years it grew very hot in summer -- winds coming from India! :lol:
That is some of what I have in mind now... Should you find it good, tell me; and you can ask for more! :thumbs_up

That sound's interesting. I once tried learning Urdu, and thought of getting a self-learning book, but when I browsed through I realised it is a tough language. In India, Muslims usually speak Urdu (in Northern India especially) and they do learn Arabic for reading Koran. Maybe you can help me learn a few Arabic words or Urdu (if you know ofcourse). Would help me learn how to write "Ashraf" in Arabic?

Hi. I am an educator from England in the United Kingdom. I teach English to teens and love it so much that I like to get involved in literature even when I am not at work. I read all the time and feel incomplete without a book in my bag. I also write bits and bobs myself although I don't attempt to get anything except teaching materials published. I'm a fairly happy person. The international flavour of this forum looks good to me and the age mix too. It seems a really welcoming place. :)

Heeeeyyyyy!!! i've recently joined this website..
now..
i just wanna to say : reading is my pAsSiOn =)

Welcome Inez and Stardust :wave:

Hey people I still don't know how to use this thing properly yet so I guess the correct place to start is at the begining... well that's not entirely true if you're a book lover but hey nevermind. I'm starrie, just found this site mooching around the internet and thought I'd give it a go. Hope we can find lots to talk about. I can't really say I have a favourite book or author or even time period because I like so much. I'm studying a degree in English and Philosophy and that's about it. Not much to tell right now but I'm sure I'll start talking lots as time goes on. Hope to speak to you all soon.

Well Madhuri,
First, I apologise again for replying late -- it is a habit, you know! :lol:
I do not know Urdu. I had a friend who knew how to speak Urdu, for he had Indian origins; but I do not.
I do not know what you mean by helping you learn how to write "Ashraf" in Arabic... Is it the Arabic word meaning "the most honourable"? Or you mean something else?
J'attends ta reponse! ;)

For example: If I have to write "Madhuri" how can I write it using Arabic alphabets.

Hello to all the newbies, great to have you here :nod:

Now, I can show you, but you must have your Windows Arabic enabled!
Here you are:
Madhuri ==> مادهوري
Ashraf ==> أشرف
Can you see those Alphabets?
(Oh, I replied early this time, you see! :thumbs_up )
