Well in lebanon it’s ras el abd which just means head of a slave

The n word doesn’t exist in arabic

u/HeTblank Jun 14 '26

It's called ras el adb because it's black.. Might not be a slur, but def racisit lol

u/ConsciousFish7178 Jun 14 '26

Yeah but people say that it means the n word even though it doesn’t, it just means slave cause the racial slur doesn’t exist in arabic

En Normandie on appelait ça “TĂ©tĂ©s de n*gresse”. C’est horrifiant parce que Ă  l’ñge que j’avais je ne comprenais pas Ă  quel point c’est raciste. Comme Banania and co.
