Questions & Answers about الهدوم الفاتحة والغامقة لسه مبلولة ومكرمشة.

Is الهدوم an Egyptian Arabic word? What would be used in Standard Arabic?

Yes. الهدوم is a very common Egyptian Arabic word for clothes. In Standard Arabic, you would more often see الملابس or الثياب. So this sentence sounds clearly colloquial Egyptian, not formal MSA.

Why is there no word for are in this sentence?

Because Arabic usually leaves out the present-tense verb to be.

So a sentence like:

الهدوم ... مبلولة

literally looks like the clothes ... wet, but it means the clothes are wet.

This is normal in both Egyptian Arabic and Standard Arabic. If you wanted was/were or will be, then Arabic would use a verb.

What does لسه mean here?

Here, لسه means still.

So:

لسه مبلولة ومكرمشة
= still wet and wrinkled

In other situations, لسه can also mean yet, especially in negatives and questions, but in this sentence still is the right idea.

Why do the adjectives come after the noun instead of before it?

Because in Arabic, adjectives normally come after the noun they describe.
