“Flies” (transportation) (third-person) in Tunisian Arabic

In Tunisian Arabic, “Flies” (the verb, as in transportation by flying, in the third-person participle) is written using the Latin script as:

(m) Ysefer

(f) Tsefer

Using the Arabic script, it is written as:

يسافر (m)

تسافر (f)

(Editor’s note: In Tunisian Arabic, the translation of transportation by flying is different from the translation of something that is flying (e.g. Like a bird).)
