Explanation:
also called rampien, lamb's lettuce, or field salad

Corn salad grows in a low rosette with spatulate leaves up to 15.2cm long.It is a hardy plant that grows to zone 5, and in mild climates it is grown as a winter green. In warm conditions it tends to bolt to seed.

Corn salad grows wild in parts of Europe, northern Africa and western Asia. In Europe and Asia it is a common weed in cultivated land and waste spaces. In North America it has escaped cultivation and become naturalized on both the eastern and western seaboards.

disagree  Liliana Roman-Hamilton: This is EN>AR, you didn't give any answer. Plus, if it is a pure guess, I would not risk a confidence level of 4. I would suggest confidence level 1 or not answering at all, as you don't know Arabic.
