I know a few Americans living here in Rabat, and i think they’d all agree that this is the best description on the stages they go through during their stay in Morocco!
I can’t find anything better than Maryam said : brilliant and funny!

Paul – Quite right, here you go:

N’moot alik = I’m dying for you
Ohaibuk = I love you
Seer = Go!

And I do look cute in a head scarf, thanks! Must dig up a photo…

You should have a glossary for all us poor mono-linguals.
I’d say you look great in the head scarf all the same;-)

Jill – Here’s wishing you a speedy transition to Stage 5…though I have been known to sink back into Stage 3 at times, ha ha. I’ll bet that “n’moot” vs. “tan moot” is just another example of “swallowing” parts of words, which darija seems to be famous for!

Aimee – Glad I could provide a little humor…it’s almost Friday, woo!

L – thanks for the rundown. I was cracking up over coffee. Maybe now I can stay awake while reading far less interesting things.

Oh, that’s so familiar! I think I’m in stage 4, having finally surpassed 3 (man, right down to the Butagaz wars).

(We say tan moot alik…is that pronunciation difference or just transliteration?)
