I was married 17 years to a Jordanian man from Amman.... The culture is so welcoming, the food is amazing, the music, the hospitality, the families, .... But unfortunately my marriage didn't work... I was very European, I love wine, pork, dress liberally...I am agnostic... ...and he was a traditional and religious man from Amman, so.. my marriage became a war between 2 cultures so different.... I couldn't adaptate to it.... we separated 6 months ago.... But I will never talk bad about Jordanians.... I will never forget the hospitality in Amman... It was amazing.....

U can ask anyone some refreshment or something to drink simply as that, but never offer much food as arabs, even Jordanians has big eyes, they get all the food in the table and put them all in the plate in one time, at the end will end up all in the trash. Luck of respect for food! Coffee, sweets, juices is enough for them.

May ALLAH bless you Sister. Actually, you will treat the guests depending on your relationship with them, so there are two main types of guests: 1) Not close, you will treat them as royal family, BUT you all staying in the guest room (formally). 2) Close such as your in-laws, you will treat them as royal family, BUT you all staying in the living room (غرفة القعدة) (formally/casually).

The coffee tradition is very interesting, i mean the arabic coffee. There is 4 cups of coffee the guest drink, first is called Heef which is the cup they drink to prove there is nothing in the coffee. Second is the Guests coffee, the third is the joy cup and the forth is called the sword which means that the host will stand next to the guest and protect them whatever it costs. Vert old traditional thing especially in the beduin culture.

I agree with you I'm from America and the first time I went to Jordan to meet my boyfriend's family I had dinner with them it was so much food. You're right I felt I was so obligated to finish all of it. Then after I finished they added more food to my plate and then after dinner we had hot tea they brought out a plate of fruit that I felt that I had to have one then the coffee came out with dessert. But it was so wonderful I've never had that type of experience. Americans are the same way you go to somebody's house and you like you helped yourself. I just wish that more people in the world would show that type of hospitality. There's nothing like the people in Jordan they're the most wonderful people. I love them all.

At the same time we tell them "feel at home" meaning do whatever you like or make yourself comfortable e.g. sit however and wherever you like, change tv channel, turn fan on, off, up or down etc, simply you've got absolute dominance over this domain

Wow! So true! But in Southern U.S. culture, it is rude to ask someone to turn on the fan or air for you if they are not using it. Most will instinctly do it when they know you’re coming. But, in Jordan, they have to learn that your body might not be used to the heat. I’m from Minnesota with southern parents. Lol

You are prevaleged because you are British. Maybe even lucky to have good people arround you. In addition to the fact that you are a nice person 💕 Inspite of my negative experience, I still have many friends and consider Jordan as my second home. I live in the UK now and work in a bank.

He says its normal but here in the USA where I currently am (due to airport closure 😢) it would be incredibly rude for a guest to show up that late let alone stay until 1 or 2 am ! And like you said, his family will never say they are sleepy or its late. The guest can stay as long as they like. (Its usually a family member aunt or an older married sibling with their spouse and children who stay late) It's very acceptable and normal, but I keep telling him if that were to happen here they would stay standing at the door because no one would wake up, get out of bed (because usually by 12 am most are in bed) and entertain a guest for a couple hours!

Allah bless you, your family (extended one & nano one) and people of Jordan. Well, it is similar in most Muslim countries. In Algeria, illegal immigrants are traveling (considerable portion on foot) 1900Km (only in Algeria alone from south to north passing the Sahara). It is amazing how people helping them with water, food, cloths, covers (too hot in day, too cold in night) and also lift them in some road sections before/after state law enforcement check points (they risk catching them doing this, because it also defined as illegal smuggling ).

U're sooo cute 😂 That's true but recently some families grew out of some habits in a good way I personally would never force a guest to do or eat something they don't want to or put my hands in their plates 😂 And when i am invited to someone's home i try to be as polite as i can refusing something but will have enough of food or drink without them needing to put something for me

Brilliant! You nailed it - and with charm. You do a great job showing how diametrically opposed British and Jordanian modes of hospitality are - and yet how "right" each one is for its respective culture. Thank you.

@@MummyinAmman I love your channel and look forward to your videos. It's amazing that you manage, while raising energetic young children (and doing heaven knows what else), to keep perspective and pass on interesting, informative insights into all things cultural, linguistic, culinary and interpersonal in the "translation" of a British life into a Jordanian reality. Hafazik Allah!

Your pronunciation of Arabic words is a spot on !!! also, one more thing you probably didn't know: the turkish coffee at the end of every visit can be considered as a "good bye" or "see you later" thats why no one in Jordan would serve you turkish coffee as soon as you arrive, unless you ask for it , or simply if they don't like you :)

Hospitality is probably the most beautiful thing about Jordanian culture. When I went back to England, I kept up some of those habits, not as forcefully as Jordanians do. In the teachers' staff room I would bring sweets to celebrate Fridays (everyone loves Fridays, Muslim or not) as well as things like the birth of my last daughter. I was asked why I did that, why celebrate your daughter's birth with others? I answered in Arab culture we are all brothers and sisters, so my happiness is your happiness (I said something like, can't quite remember what).

In Jordan we have a rule that if a random person knocks on door and enters we have to feed,give shelter, make food for them for 3 days after 3days we can ask them “why are you here” but we ask nicely with a smile

In Saoudi w Khalleggee if you are done with the food 🍲 or Qahwah ☕, you simply gotta shake it up and that's it!! It's a kind of tradition, traditional sign that shows up or signs up you've just finished. Khalas!! 😁

It is so funny isn't it. In my parents house my mum loved that all her sons and daughter in law just helps themselves to anything and wont make a fuss if they dont in. Where as in my Husbands parents it has taken 10 years for them to offer me a little less food and no hot drinks...I love them for it though.

I almost agree with everything you said but there’s a little thing, it depends on your relationship with the person and your character. I’ve been friends with some people and i know all they’re family a lot so when i’m at their house i act like i’m home. I go through the fridge and get what i want by myself but in some respect “like when i know that there’s nobody in the house or all the people aren’t where i wanna go” so i don’t embarrass or surprise anyone who wasn’t expecting to see me even with saying something or sometimes being loud and letting others know that i’m in that place

There are nuances you probably want to consider. So people might be very welcoming, very generous (likely they're honest about it) but you do not take everything you're offered as is. For example, they will always insist that you stay longer when it got really late and they have work in the morning. That does not mean you simply stay. They insist on you staying, you express gratitude and insist on leaving, given their commitments the next day. They'll top off your plate, but you can politely say you do not want to waste food, and they'll accept that. The reason behind topping off one's plate is that guests are usually shy about asking for more food. So, you want to save their faces by offering them food. The story about the guy with the only goat (looked fictional to me) would be truly odd, and rather insensitive. I'd never ever accept that the man kills his "only" goat to honor his guests. If he does, I very soon come back with a replacement of some sort. Another example: you compliment someone's sweater, so they'll offer it for you. That does NOT mean you take it. You just express gratitude and say, "it looks better on you". And I never go to visit anyone without having made sufficient arrangements. Only exception would be very, very close family members.
