"Like" in Arabic. So instead of saying "like", people from the Middle east use the word yaani instead. To more accurately write the word in the way it is spoken it is sometimes spelled as ya3ni, because the 3 looks like the letter ayin.

Dude 1: Hey dude, yesterday I was talking with my teacher, and ... yaani, I said, yaani, why did you take off 10 points on my test. Yaani, it's so unfair.

Dude 2: Yeah, that guy is a prick.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"
