Best Brands by 760 Days in Morocco on Nov 20, 2009I’m aware that this blog post might seem a little kooky.  But, one of the goals of this blog is to help people find their way living in Morocco in any and all aspects.  If one person benefits from one little drop of the information I’ll...

Darija Word of the Day by 760 Days in Morocco on Nov 20, 2009Today’s word is yalla (let’s go, come on or hurry up).  It’s also used in standard Arabic to mean the same thing.  There is another word also used for “hurry up” sometimes (which I’ll post soon), but yalla is al...

World’s Largest Tagine by 760 Days in Morocco on Nov 17, 2009I don’t know what’s up with me today.  I have a big long post in my head ready to be written, but somehow I’m just not in the mood today.  So, instead for the second time this week I’ve joined Twitter, but I’m still n...

Darija Word of the Day by 760 Days in Morocco on Nov 17, 2009Today’s word is aji (come).  When I start getting into the verbs, I know there some conjugation that goes along with it depending who you’re speaking to, but I’m not there yet.  From what I remember in Arabic class, it’s j...
