But since Fea is a gal shouldn't it be Kayf halek instead of halak and sho akhbarek instead of akhbarak. and then shakhbaresh, "Shkhbarash" is when you talking to a dude :D

Just sayin

we can add:

sho akhbarak = what is your news

(Qataris mix the above to become "Shkhbarash"

Ma ismoki? (formal for women)

Sho ismak? (local for men, Qataris mix this two words to be "Shsmak")

Sho ismek? (local for women, Qataris mix this two words to be "Shsmek")
