Habibi (noun)
hab-ee-bee
Habibi is an Arabic word that literally means “my love” (sometimes also translated as “my dear,” “my darling,” or “beloved.”)
Habibi or habibti comes from the Arabic root word meaning “love.” Habib (masculine) or habiba (feminine) refers to a loved one. That final -i is a possessive—it turns “love” into “my love.”
