WORD TRIP
Morocco
Known for its ancient cities, specifically the “Red City” of Marrakech, Morocco is a tourist hot spot with its beautiful landscapes and rich culture. Moroccan cuisine has also long been considered one of the most diverse cuisines in the world, as a result of Morocco’s century old connections with the outside world.
The famous movie “Casablanca” was filmed in the port city the movie was named after. The English word “genie” also comes directly from the Arabic word djinn. In Morocco, djinns are believed to frequent places associated with water: public baths, drains, sinks, and even pots and pans
Word for “Hello” in Morocco: Salaam Alaikum
