Ghada Murad, Syrian Prosecutor-General
فبراير 20th, 2008This video is of an Al Jazeera program, nearly an hour-long, where they interview Syrian Prosecutor-General Ghada Murad. She was the first woman to enter the judiciary in Syria and is now in the position, equivalent of “Attorney General” in Syria. She is involved in “investigating” the killing of former Lebanese premier Rafik Harari and is expected to cooperate with the United Nations on their investigation.
I was able to pick out numerous words in the program that I understand and get the gist of it. Some key words here include:
محام (muhaamin) - lawyer
ولدت (waladat) - she was born
نساء (nisaa’) - woman (singular)
رجل (rajul) - man (singular); رجال (rijal) - men (plural)
مدرسة (madrassa) - school
جامعة (jami’ya) - university
كلية (kulia) - college
الجقوق (al haquq) - law
This video has a lot of good content to work with, so I will likely come back to it again later. It helps just to listen to it and see what you can understand and figure out from the context.
