Questions & Answers about حضرتك عندك ضغط عالي اليوم، ولا هاد بس من التعب؟

What does حضرتك mean here?

حضرتك is a polite way to say you in many Levantine situations. It is respectful, similar to saying sir / ma’am or using a polite you.

In this sentence, it makes the question sound more courteous, which fits a medical or professional context.

A few useful notes:

• حضرتك can be used for both men and women
• it is common in polite conversation, especially with strangers, older people, patients, customers, etc.
• in everyday casual speech with friends, people would more often just use forms without حضرتك

Why does the sentence use عندك to mean you have?

In Levantine Arabic, possession is often expressed with عند plus a pronoun ending.

So:

• عندك = you have
• literally, it is something like at you

Examples:

• عندي سيارة = I have a car
• عندها وقت = she has time
• عندهم مشكلة = they have a problem

So حضرتك عندك ضغط عالي اليوم literally works like:

• you, you have high blood pressure today

That is a very normal Arabic structure.
