意思
Happening or being true in the majority of situations or instances.
文化背景
In daily Levantine speech, people often swap 'ahyan' for 'aw'at' (times/moments). You might hear 'bi aghlab al-aw'at.' Egyptians love the word 'ghaliban' (usually) for its brevity, but in formal media (like Al-Ahram newspaper), 'في معظم الأحيان' is the standard. In the Gulf, 'mu'zam' is used frequently in business and official government communications to describe typical procedures. While local Darija uses many French loanwords for frequency, 'في معظم الأحيان' remains the bridge for formal pan-Arab communication.
