#habibi
I noticed something. You know how the word habibi (in every Arabic song) sounds like “baby” or “bby” and means “my beloved” ? well love in Arabic is Hubb (with the root letters hbb), and to add the possessive form in Arabic you ad “…i”, so my love becomes “Hubbi” which sounds almost exactly like “hubby” (husband) in English! I think it’s beautiful how words in languages that have nothing to do with eachother can connect like that, by pure coicidence.
