pronounce Abu Gharib.
Edited on Thu Jul-08-04 05:55 PM by LastKnight
personally i say it like this: "tourture" or the alternate pronunciation: "cover-up"

do it correctly and it will put you head and shoulders above our 'great' leader.

9. I have
Ah-boo ( Goo(soft)-rayb. The 2nd word means "crow" (like the bird).. gives it a few sinister connotations in some ways.

12. "father of"
Edited on Thu Jul-08-04 07:32 PM by Aidoneus
when used in a name. For an example, "Khaled Abu Khatib" means a father named Khaled with a son named Khatib, etc.

In the context of the Abu Ghurayb concentration camp, I'm not sure. My knowledge of the language is a little spotty..
