Question about Arabic
What does “fadal” mean in Egyptian?
I’ve been watching Egyptian TV series, and I keep hearing people saying something like “fadal” when they are meaning sure or ok. How is the word written and what does it actually mean?

It can be used in many ways including the ones you mentioned
"Can I ask a question?/I have a question"
"Itfaddal" (Sure/Go ahead)
When you invite someone in, you say "Itfaddal" (Come on in)
"Can I get that __?"
"Itfaddal" (Here you are)
It also means "Have a seat"
By the way, "Itfaddal" is masculine so you only say it to a male. The feminine form is "Itfaddali", and the plural is "Itfaddalu"

I think so, I haven’t seen it written down, so I’m guessing that’s it. What does it mean?
