That is accepted. Explanation: That is accepted or that is acceptable. The term is the past participle of verb (هضم). So, it literally means “swallowed” Swallow-able things have to be acceptable of course. Please note (اقتراح مهضوم) in the referenced link: Reference: http://bb.ss.org.sa/bb/viewtopic.php?p=25645 |

peer agreement (net): +3| مهضوم (باللهجة اللبنانية) خفيف الظل Explanation: It's equivalent to "خفيف الظل" and "ظريف" or as we say in colloquial way: "خفيف الدم". I hope that answers your question. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 35 mins (2005-04-18 16:19:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- With due respect to all other answerers; \"مهضوم\" really doesn\'t mean any of their suggestions. In fact it is usually used to describe people; and in the particular situation the asker has mentioned, \"مهضوم\" actually refers to the person and not to what he was saying. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr 40 mins (2005-04-18 16:25:26 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I guess it\'s just the cute \"مهضومة\" Lebanese way of expressing things; like their saying \"هالبنت شو مهضومة!\"; or \"!ياي شو بيعقد\". :) Hoping some native Lebanese would confirm! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 hrs 43 mins (2005-04-19 14:27:58 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- You\'re quite right; and the opposite of that would be \"غليظ , دمه ثقيل\" or in a most colloquial way \"!ما بينزل على معدة\". Thank you for your trust :) |
