Oh Lebanon
I travelled to my parents homeland for the first time in ten years. For years I lived and witnessed fragments of my culture through my parents.
The history, culture and society of Lebanon is phenomenal.

The beginning of each message initiates with an eh, an example of what she may say aftewards"may we see you with a beautiful bride and an eternal love to grow with". The moderato...

Blessings are abound, the way we see the world is determined by our state of heart. Purify your heart and you will recognize grace and caliber as a fifty year tree continues to dance with the wind, although the hurdle of darkness obliterates our vision - it is also a path to Godly cognizance, hence self-betterment. This is a video compilation of memorable snippets as well as what I love to surr...

Lol you think you’re so clever. What’s culture for you? Making weird dances, screaming and wearing the same clothes than people wore thousands of years ago? Not being civilized and living like people in the past is culture? LOL

    It’s actually present in many regions of the world. Even Natives of America. (North Africa, Eastern Africa, south East Asia...) but then there different ways to do it. Sometimes it’s more the uvula in the throat that is going up and down... :)

      Yes but its done in all Arabic speaking countries by every one , i am a libyan our zagrotah is like the Egyptian and gulf countries zagrotah , in levant countries their zagrotah is similar but before the zagrotah is done they usually say some sentences ( like for example compliment for the bride and groom ) , in other north African contries , ex : tunisia , Algeria and Morocco their zagrotah is a little different .

      Recently got interested on this. I am from South Asia. It is very prevalent there. Especially in the southern part of the Indian subcontinent. Very old Tamil language literature sources mention this Ululation. some as old as 300 BC. So must have been practiced even earlier than that. It is called ‘Kulavai’. It is done for the same reason as in the Arab countries. I had never thought it existed outside of My culture in India and Sri Lanka until I came across some videos of Arab weddings a few years back. Could be an interesting research subject 😊

      Why is it that no one seems to have watched Dena before Shakira performed her ululation. I watched this several months before the super bowl trying to learn more about the iconic 90s warrior wonan war cry now anyone under the age of 30 has been brought here by Shakira. Of course to be fair Lucy Lawless (ie Xena) was playing a fictional warrior and her cry wasn't typically a war cry. Shakira placed back I the rightful social mores, I just wish my own 90s awe hadn't been supplanted How'd that I've expressed my sad inner [frost crystal] I have to say in love the attention Shakira had brought this ancient tradition. Dena ghar absolutely nothing on a true daughter of the real tradition
