Thanks.

"Kossoof kolly li-shams"

Kossoof = eclipse (only used for the sun, that of the moon is "kHossoof").

Kolly (or Taam) = total

li = for

Shams = sun

Have fun.

The last solar-eclipse I saw was 5 minutes after I had survived an almost deadly car-accident in Amien-France.

The idiot who caused the accident was looking up the sky while driving.

Be careful on that Sallum road. It's full of maniacs.
