I met Ikhlas on Instagram. She is a German & Arabic teacher living in Germany. Ikhlas is an author to two books. In this episode she shares 10 German words that are derived from Arabic while I share 10 Spanish words. We had a wonderful time recording this episode together and I hope you enjoy it as well!
