Fun facts from the classroom

Cultural fact about the Wadi Ara region of Israel: if a guy is being flirtatious with a girl, he might say, "Ya baTa!" (Literally: "Hey, there, duck!") or "Ya wazza!" ("Hey there, goose!")

If a guy said that in America, he'd either get laughed at or smacked across the face.


According to my teacher of Jewish History, the Israeli political system is about as "clear as mud."


I would type up my copious notes from my notebook, but that would take forever.
