Egypt

Ads in Egyptian Arabic,
not translated.

Egypt's audience reads colloquial Arabic and trusts it. Hamla writes in everyday Cairo and Alexandria words, and leaves MSA to brands that choose it.

One idea, in Egypt's voice.

The same idea for an example coffee brand. Switch voices and compare.

  • “متتأخرش”, “هتوصل”, “دلوقتي”: words people in Cairo actually say.
  • Prices in EGP; the button speaks the market's dialect too.

One idea for an example brand. Hamla writes in the language of the market you pick for each campaign, and never “corrects” dialect into formal Arabic.

What Hamla keeps for this market

The dialect, the pound,
and Egypt's moments.

  • Egyptian Arabic in the ads, MSA in the interface if you like
  • Words your audience says in English stay that way: CV, online
  • Prices and budgets in Egyptian pounds
