The Tunisian clichés
You may agree with the idea that says that the Tunisians are inventive in the creation of clichés.
I am sure you've heard or used words like these: savan? (sava), mish normall (ce n'est pas normal) ,youfa… etc
Every year a number of weird words pop up in our lexical repertoire in cafés, in buses, in trains almost everywhere. No doubt they are not the product of a linguist, a lexicographer, a novelist or a teacher. Perhaps they are coined by a construction worker, a football fan, a restaurant server or a brothel guardian.
What is strange is how do these words spread quickly and became remarkable phenomenon? What matters most is what they reflect deep down in the psyche of the people and what they represent behind the drawn shades of the speakers subconscious. My friends I`d like you to say anything that occurs to your mind about the subject of clichés in Tunisia until we hook something momentous.
