The last part contains a sound similar to the last sound in the composer's name, Bach. [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] How do you say, "good morning"? [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] In Arabic, you may respond with the same greeting, but it is more appropriate to use this response, which also means, "good morning."

[NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] Say to a man, "you have had breakfast." [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] Ask a man, "have you had breakfast?" [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] Here's how you say to a woman, "you have had breakfast or you have eaten breakfast." [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] Notice the ending "e" that makes it feminine. Say to a woman, "you have had breakfast." [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] Ask a woman, "have you had breakfast?" [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH] What's the word that negates verbs?
