Tanjara W Le2it Ghataha - طَنجَرَهْ ولائِتْ غَطاها
Literal Translation: "A Cooking-pot which has found its Cover"

In the world of friendship, matchmaking, alliances and relationships,  this expression refers to a "good match" and implies that the two persons subjects of the conversation are "made for one another" or "destined for each other" with the connotation of similarity between both personalities and characters of said subjects. Similar to: "A match made in Heaven" when applied to lovers.

Sample Conversation:

Person 1 and 2 are talking about the latest couple in the group.

Person 1: " Man! I never thought there would be anyone as nerdy as Dany!

Person 2: "I never thought Dany would ever have a girlfriend...even less a wife!"

Person 1: " I know! It's "Tanjara W Le2it Ghataha"!"

 Egyptian Slang: Literaly means "Strong" used as Cool. The use of this termwas usually combined with another word to stress the coolness (e.g. [Gamed Gedan = Very Cool], [Gamed Ta7n = Crushing Cool], [Gamed Fa7t = Earth digging cool] and other R rated combinations Smile)
 
Recently in addition to the above, it is used alone to address a cool person just like dude or bro in English.

 

Sample conversation 1:

Person 1: Did you go to the new Cafe by the beach?

Person 2: Yeah man! I loved it Gamed Fa7t

 

Sample conversation 2:

Person 1: Hey bro!

Person 2: Hi ya Gamed How is it going?
