The joys of the mornings here in Lebanon ... Hearing people getting super creative with their greetings in the morning is just amusing. Because the classic "sabah el kheir" does not suffice anymore.

Here are 7 ways Lebanese people say "good morning."

1.Bonjour

Even if the person isn't French educated ...

2. Bonjourein

Because greeting just once isn't enough, you have to send two "bonjours" their way.

3. Bonjourek

Just because adding some Arabic to French is necessary ...

4. Sabah el kheir

Probably only used when speaking to someone from the older generation, like your teta and jiddo. When used in everyday language it makes you feel a bit too formal, doesn't it?

5. Sabah el kheirat

Changing up "kheir" never gets old.

6. Sabah el wared

That guy who sits on a plastic chair on the side of the road with a toothpick in his mouth while calling you a flower.

7. Sabah el ful

Because calling me a "warde" isn't enough.
