ABSTRACT
This chapter talks about the sports, cultural points and conditional statements. Soccer is by and large the most popular game in the Arab world. Therefore, it occupies much of people's time, especially college-age students, although more so male than female. An increasing number of young Arab men are becoming active fans of certain international soccer teams. Issues related to the opposite sex are also very prevalent due, in part, to the greater distance between the two sexes compared to non-Muslim countries. "kaan", this verb is the Arabic version of the verb "to be" in English. Before presenting the different usages of this verb in LA, it's important to remember the difference between two grammatical forms. Levantine Arabic (LA) expresses these two functions using a /kaan/ verb along with the main verb in two derivations: subject noun and object noun. Conditional statements behave very much like cause and effect statements.
