Do You Say "baba" And "mama" Even Though You Are..

[Ali-F 2,557]

Salam alaykum

 

Ramadhan kareem.

 

I have a question for everyone. Do you say baba and mama to your parents, or do you call them by other means?

 

 

Thx

I say baba and mama haha, I need to change it though... seems kinda childish now.

[Repentant 1,418]

I still do lol.

[Ali-F 2,557]

lol man, I think it's embarrasing.. 

 

do anyone call their parents by other means?

[El Cid 920]

I say Papa and Mama lol

Haha too used to it. Doesn't feel ackward anymore. But when someone else says it seems way too odd Lol.

BTW why are some people using ramdhan kareeem as a greeting.

aleikum salaam & ramadan kareem

funny question, i still say mama & baba its not strange or anything. any1 realise of those Arabs who now teach their kids to say "mommy" & "pappy" or "daddy" ?? even when they not live in the West? :) lol

[gerashi_mp 202]

I still do, and will keep saying baba mama lol

Ammi and Abu, and in some situations waalid and waalda.

[blu115 165]

"mom" "dad"

[King 4,038]

Ammi and Abbu ftw

And no its not odd at all, calling them something else would be super odd now.

I also can't speak to my parents in English, Urdu is a far more respectful language.

Bismehe Ta3ala,

I call my mother Imma, and my father bayya.

M3 Salamah, FE AMIN Allah
