“Wahad”

Wahad means “One” in Arabic (“Echad” in Hebrew). Its rough translation is “One really big…” and it is definitely a very informal street slang word. In Arabic, there is an extra-large exhalation on the letter “h,” deep down from the diaphragm and this adds to the emphasis of the word.

Examples:

  • I was walking down the sidewalk when suddenly wahad snake crossed right in front of me!
  • We ate at the new Argentinian restaurant last night and they brought me wahad steak!
