Bedeutung
Used to state one's origin from a non-native country.
Kultureller Hintergrund
In the Gulf, 'أجنبي' is very commonly used to distinguish between citizens and expatriates. In the Levant, people might be more curious about which specific country you are from rather than just the fact that you are a foreigner. The term is widely understood but 'أجنبي' is often used interchangeably with 'سائح' (tourist) depending on the context.
