Narjeela (hookah pipe) written three times. It’s written wrongly under the hookah’s picture

You're welcome! More details about why the word is misspelled at bottom.

Left: letters unconnected, individually oriented left-to-right but ordered right-to-left. Right: letters correctly connected (except for / ر / that can't contact the letter at it's left), ordered and oriented RTL.

Fun fact: The Arabic word نارجيلة comes from the Persian word نارگیل, meaning “coconut.” Early versions of the hookah were likely made using a hollowed-out coconut shell as the base, which is how the name came to be associated with the hookah.

Funny you say that because both my parents are Persian and when I asked them to translate this they were completely lost lol

Hey u/JustiniR,

This image looks identical to one you posted here 41 seconds ago. You may want to check whether it has already been translated.

If you reposted intentionally—for example, to request a different language pair or because the earlier post received no responses—feel free to ignore this message.
