When using titles in Arabic
Hey! I'm writing a speech in English about the Palestinian martyr Dr. Adnan al-Bursh. When I refer to him in the speech, I want to do it how you do it in Arabic.
Do you usually say Dr. Adnan or Dr. al-Bursh in Arabic?
In English (and Norwegian which I am) we use the surname, but I have noticed when Palestinians talk about someone like Dr. Mads Gilbert, they refer to him as Dr. Mads, not Dr. Gilbert as I would have done.
