There are certain Arabic words that just have to come up in every single conversation you're having. They often come with a subliminal message that the person on the receiving end understands without you having to say two extra words. One word that cannot be missed is "yaani." From the good to the bad and the ugly, here are 9 times the word came to your rescue:
1. When you're desperately trying to explain something
2. When you don't know how to start a sentence and just need to stall
3. To describe some level of mediocrity
4. To understand the meaning behind something
5. Delivering a clear "who even cares" message
6. Or to simply emphasize something
7. Or emphasize something very strongly
8. When you want to show your agreement with someone or something
9. And when you just can't contemplate how something is even possible
