In Arabic, people use casual words to pause, react, or think — just like "well", "um", or "you know" in English.
✅ Common Arabic fillers:
يعني – “I mean…” / “Like…”
طيب – “Okay…” / “Alright…”
مممم – “Umm…”
بصراحة – “Honestly…”
والله؟ – “Really?” / “Are you serious?”
إن شاء الله – “God willing” (used constantly in everyday speech)
🗣 Example:
والله؟ يعني ما كنت أعرف!
“Really? Like, I didn’t know!”
