“Strictly” in Tunisian Arabic
In Tunisian Arabic, “Strictly” (the adverb) is written using the Latin script as:
Strictement
Using the Arabic script, it is written as:
ستريكتومون
(Editor’s note: In Tunisian Arabic, Strictly is conventionally Strictement / ستريكتومون. (A derivitive of French) But like many adverbs, the operative word is used in less scenarios than in English. In many scenarios, Strictement / ستريكتومون would not be used: The verb that is prohibited would just be communicated without the intensifier This principal word s applied more to situations where a certain action or behaviour is officially prohibited. (E.g., Parking in a certain spot, smoking in a particular area, certain behaviours being forbiddin in certain areas, etc.)
