This is OT, but there are so many lingweenies here, I thought someone
might be able to figure out the answer:
How do you say "Your wages will be paid in bread and beer" in Egyptian
(not Coptic, not Egyptian Arabic)?

Promises become binding when there is a meeting of the minds and consideration
is exchanged. So it was at King's Bench in common law England; so it was
under the common law in the American colonies; so it was through more than
two centuries of jurisprudence in this country; and so it is today.
