Language: Cairo vs Alexandria

Lost in translation? We'll fix that...

Staff Writer

If you are from Egypt, there is a very good chance that your family is either from Alexandria or Cairo. Each city has their own flavour, culture, and language. It is the difference in language that we here at CairoScene have decided to focus on. Of course each city has their own unique accent, which is completely understandable, but what is baffling is how each city can have totally different words for the same thing.

What do you think Egypt, leaving your city bias behind, which spelling best describes the words in question?
