Business Arabic: I am going to start a series of Business Arabic vocabulary for those of you who do regular business in the Arab World. This vocabulary is intended for those of you with a minimum level of Intermediate, and with a good grounding in reading Arabic without the vowels.
If you need any help in the pronunciation of particular words, do not hesistate to ask in the forum.

ya Fawzy, I am sorry that the script is too small for you to read but this forum and thread only seem to produce small fonts. If you go to your web-browser, go to the top and go to VIEW, then to TEXT SIZE, then adjust it to increase or very large.
An alternative way is to copy and paste what you can't read unto notepad or word, then increase the font size.
Inshallah that will help

Schlaftius: I have to say the following as an avid watcher of this forum in the attempt to keep my arabic conversational skills up:-
Ana mish baheb el soora la Schlatftius. Oo kaman the jokes he has written.
afwan but ana lazim bit ooliloon.

To Fawzi: Yes, I have experience in running/owning a business but I am not at liberty to discuss my business on a public forum. We might be able to discuss it on a more private setting. As far as the financial markets in the Middle East, I don't claim to be an expert and I am sure there are better sources of information on that

To Meg:
Meg, I am sacrificing some of time here to teach my fellow man my native tongue.
So whether you like my picture, or my sense of humour is neither here or there. I am not here to entertain you or to be judged by you. This is not the Comedy Store Forum.
You either are interested to learn Business Arabic or you're not, it's that simple.
I'm sorry if I come across as harsh but it had to be said for anyone else who wants to attack me personally.

To Everyone:
Could we please keep this forum/thread about learning Business Arabic. If you have any questions about Arabic Grammar, Syntax, Arabic Culture, Business Vocabulary, Business Etiquette in the Middle East, General Arabic Vocabulary or anything else related, I am happy to answer them.
If, on the other hand, you have some personal questions to ask me; don't.
If you want to judge me; don't.
If you want to know about my business; don't.
If you don't like my picture or avatar or joke, that's your opinion but don't post it in here.
I am here to share my knowledge, not my life.
I hope this is the last time I will have to discuss this in here.

this is in regards to increase the font size. All you need to do is enclose < font size = (num) > statement < / font > around the word (without the spaes i put in) and it will work. Example:
السلام عليكم
this is font size 4
also for marquee just use < marquee behavior=reverse > statement < /marquee>
Example:

You appreciation is appreciated, your diligence is noted, I am glad you can join us to learn this wonderful and rich language.
