Significado
To exit a public bus.
Contexto cultural
In Egypt, the bus (otobis) is often very crowded. To get off, you must start moving toward the door several minutes early. You might say 'Nazil ya rayes' to the driver. People often use 'Bas' instead of 'Hafila'. It is common to thank the driver as you get off by saying 'Ya'tik al-afiya' (May God give you health). Public buses are modern and air-conditioned. There are often separate sections for families/women. You must wait for the bus to come to a complete stop before you 'tanzilu'. The word 'Kar' or 'Tobis' is common. Getting off the bus often involves navigating busy street markets located near bus stops.
