زمینه فرهنگی

The 'Ayn' (eye) is central to many idioms. Opening the eyes is seen as a sign of maturity and 'Aql' (intellect). In the Levant, 'فتح عينك' is a very common warning given to children or friends to stay alert in busy markets. Egyptians often use 'مفتح' (mu-fattah - literally 'opened') to describe a person who is street-smart and cannot be easily fooled. In the Gulf, the phrase is often used in the context of business and heritage, realizing the value of one's roots.
