Do you speak it?
Inside a booth at a craft market, a woman with blond curly hair skims through a clothing rack. She wears a shirt with Arabic script printed across it.
A shopper next to her, a native Arabic speaker, gestures at her chest, “So, do you speak it?”
The woman, perhaps discerning whether or not she’s being checked, assertively responds, “I do! I’m learning because of him.” She gestures at her boyfriend who walks over and the three chat excitedly over their unexpected connection.
