مبروك للعريس والعروسة، وعقبالك.

A natural Egyptian pronunciation is:

mabrook lel-ʿarees wel-ʿaroosa, we ʿo'balak
or, if speaking to a woman at the end:
mabrook lel-ʿarees wel-ʿaroosa, we ʿo'balik

A few helpful notes:

• مبروك → mabrook
• للعريس → lel-ʿarees or lil-ʿarees
• والعروسة → wel-ʿaroosa
• وعقبالك → we ʿo'balak / ʿo'balik

The hardest sound for many English speakers is ع. If you cannot say it perfectly at first, an approximate pronunciation is still usually understood.

Yes. مبروك is the everyday word for congratulations in Egyptian Arabic.

It is extremely common for happy occasions such as:

• weddings
• engagements
• birthdays
• a new baby
• success in exams
• a new job

So in this sentence, مبروك is the normal, natural choice.

For a learner, the simple answer is:

• مبروك = the common spoken word for congratulations
• مبارك = more formal or more Standard-Arabic-like

In Egypt, if you want to sound natural in everyday speech, مبروك is what you will hear most.

No. مبروك stays the same.

You can say مبروك to:

• one man
• one woman
• two people
• a group

That makes it easy to use. Unlike some adjectives in Arabic, this congratulatory expression does not usually change in everyday speech.

للعريس is made of two parts:

• لـ = for / to
• العريس = the groom

So للعريس means for the groom or to the groom.

Why does it look doubled? Because it is really:

• لـ + الـعريس

When these come together, you get للعريس.

In Egyptian pronunciation, this usually sounds like lel-ʿarees or lil-ʿarees.

Because Arabic, like English, can share a preposition across two linked nouns.

So:

• مبروك للعريس والعروسة

means:

• Congratulations to the groom and the bride

Just as in English, you do not need to repeat to before the second noun.

You could repeat it and say:

• مبروك للعريس وللعروسة

and that would also be correct, but the version without repetition is very natural.

Yes, in Egyptian Arabic عروسة can mean both:

• bride
• doll

Context tells you which meaning is intended.

At a wedding, العروسة clearly means the bride.

This is very normal in Egyptian Arabic:

• العريس = the groom
• العروسة = the bride

وعقبالك is an idiomatic expression meaning roughly:

• and may your turn come next
• hope you are next
• may you have the same happy occasion soon

Here, after congratulating the bride and groom, the speaker turns to someone else and adds وعقبالك.

The و at the beginning simply means and.

So the structure is:

• مبروك للعريس والعروسة = congratulations to the bride and groom
• وعقبالك = and may it be your turn next

Usually, not to the bride and groom themselves.

It is normally said to another person present, often:

• an unmarried friend
• a sister or brother
• a cousin
• someone whose marriage you hope will happen soon

At weddings, it often means hope you get married next.

More generally, it can also be used for other happy events, not only marriage, depending on context.

One cultural note: because it can be personal, use it when it fits the relationship and situation.

Yes, in pronunciation it can change.

• to a man: وعقبالك → we ʿo'balak
• to a woman: وعقبالك → we ʿo'balik
• to a group: وعقبالكم → we ʿo'balkom

In normal Arabic spelling without short vowels, the masculine and feminine singular are often written the same way: عقبالك.
So the difference is mainly heard in speech.

It is very natural in Egyptian Arabic, and much of it is widely understood across the Arab world.

• مبروك is universally common
• العريس is widely understood
• العروسة is very natural in Egypt
• وعقبالك is also widely used, though pronunciation and frequency can vary by region

So if you are learning Egyptian Arabic, this sentence is excellent and very natural for Egyptian social use.

Yes. A very common stronger version is:

ألف مبروك للعريس والعروسة، وعقبالك

That means a thousand congratulations to the groom and bride, and may your turn come next.

ألف مبروك is one of the most common ways to make مبروك sound more enthusiastic.
