To put on clothing.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Modesty (Haya') is a core value. Wearing clothes that cover the body appropriately is seen as a sign of respect for oneself and others. The 'Thobe' (for men) and 'Abaya' (for women) are the standard 'malabis.' Wearing them is a mark of national identity and dignity. There is a strong tradition of 'elegant dressing' (Anaqa). People often take great pride in wearing well-coordinated, fashionable clothes for social visits. Traditional garments like the 'Djellaba' are commonly worn. The phrase 'yalbas' is used for these traditional items just as much as for modern western clothing.
