10 mins Might be Arabic equivalent of the honorific "Miss"
Explanation:
Greetings.
Without more context, that term might be the Arabic equivalent of
(1) the honorific form of address "Miss" (unmarried female)
or
(2) allusion/reference to the liquid "anise" (might be "anisthent" in English) used to sweeten the taste in some refreshment drinks. ("Anise" is the name of the son of a Lebanese friend.)
HTH.

11 mins Miss, or...
Explanation:
If it is Aanisa, it's 'miss' or 'young lady'.
If it is Aneesa, it is the feminine gender for:
a) sociable, friendly, amiable, affable, gentle, etc.
b) (close, intimate, bosom) friend, companion, comrade.
c) tame(d), domestic(ated).
There's one other possibility: from (the now English words) anise or aniseed.
Either way, my dear, it's NICE.

6 hrs This word in Arabic means: Sociable, companionable, friendly, amiable, affable, genial,
Explanation:
It is a great name in Arabic. The list doesn't fit in the answer box at the top.
To continue the list: debonair, kind, nice, gentle.
Other ways this name could be spelt are: Aneesa, Anisa. And the male equivalent would be Anees, or Anis.
Another derivative of the name could be translated as: close intimate, or bosom friend, companion, comrade, pal.
Hope that helps.

1 day 6 hrs Sole companion
Explanation:
So far the answers are correct, but to be exact and precise, Anissa (aneessa) means the only companion in one's solitude. That is the one (female) with whom you break your loneliness or solitude. She is intimate, friendly and etc., yes but she especially has that distinctive feature of being the only company to dismiss loneliness while the rest of people and entities do not.
