Notas culturais
In Levantine Arabic, 'alladhi' and 'allati' are often replaced by 'illi' (اللي) for all genders and numbers.
Similar to Levantine, 'illi' is the standard connector in spoken Egyptian Arabic.
In formal writing and news, the full forms 'alladhi', 'allati', etc., are strictly required.
Relative pronouns in Arabic evolved from demonstrative particles used to point to a specific entity that is then described.
