Assalamualaikum,
Ahlan wa sahlan!
hehe, did i get it correct? I learnt a little arab when I was little but I forgot most of it.
Anyway, don`t worry too much about your exam. Worrying won`t get you anywhere, on the other hand, a little fear is good, it means that you will work hard.
Do you read books? I learnt a lot verbs and adjectives from reading. Hope this tip helps. |

I am Tom. It is my pleasure to make your (virtual) acquaintance. I live in the United States and (through no conscious choice of my own) speak English as my native tongue. I'll be happy to help in any way I can.
Okay, fine, it's American English... so sue me.

I'm not sure if the rate is still eight cents, but as recently as (approximately) a decade ago, radio stations were required to pay eight cents to a record label every time they played a song.
Example:
Radio station -- 108.1 WZZZ
Song -- U Rok My Werld
Record label: Buzzfinger Sawmill Records
Buzzfinger Sawmill Records owns the rights to the song "U Rok My Werld". Every time WZZZ plays that song, they're required to pay eight cents to the record label for the right to play the song.
(as a side note, the reason that the label, song and radio station are so weird/impossible is that I don't want there to be any chance that I'm using them without permission -- you can't misuse a copyright that doesn't exist. hehe)
As for me asking for eight cents, I was just joking with you.
