Egyptian Arabic Ads for Your Products: Seller Guide
To make an Egyptian ad for your product, start from a clear product photo, write a short, lively caption in everyday Egyptian Arabic, and check the product, the label and the offer before you post. Lahjty (لهجتي) is an AI ad maker for small product sellers: it builds the ad image on your real product photo, writes the caption and headline in Egyptian Arabic, and reads the caption in an Egyptian voiceover.

Example Egyptian ads made from a product photo
Each ad below started from one plain photo of a fictional product: the product stays as photographed, the scene around it is new, and the caption is written in everyday Egyptian Arabic. These are samples that show the format, not results from Lahjty customers.

Egyptian words that make a caption sound local
Swap the formal word for the one people say in the street, and keep the caption Egyptian from start to finish.
| Meaning | Egyptian |
|---|---|
| you want (to a man, to a woman) | عايز، عايزة |
| what | إيه |
| how | إزاي |
| now | دلوقتي |
| very | أوي |
| like this | كده |
| really, seriously | بجد |
| so that, because | عشان |
What makes an ad sound Egyptian
Egyptian Arabic is familiar to Arabs everywhere through films, series and songs, but Egyptian customers still hear at once when a caption was written by someone who does not speak it. An Egyptian caption is quick and playful. It uses words such as عايز, إيه, إزاي, دلوقتي and أوي, it often opens with a moment people know (the match, afternoon tea, the morning rush), and it welcomes a light joke or a rhyme. It talks to the reader like a neighbour, not like a brand. Lahjty's Egyptian option is written for that tone: humour, rhythm and everyday situations.
Keep the facts straight
Playful does not mean loose with facts. Write prices in the currency your store shows, keep the product name as printed, and leave out claims you cannot back up. Lahjty uses only the prices and numbers in your product details or your brief: a caption that adds a price, a percentage or a currency you never gave, or a deadline or a free gift you did not offer, is rejected and rewritten once before you see it.
Write a short brief
An ad is only as good as what you tell it. Five short lines are enough:
- The product name exactly as printed on the pack, and what the product is.
- Who buys it, and whether the caption speaks to a man (عايز) or a woman (عايزة).
- One reason to buy: the taste, the comfort or the result.
- The occasion, such as Ramadan, Eid, summer or back to school.
- Your offer only if it is real, with its last day.
Check these before you post
The funniest caption cannot save an ad that shows the wrong product or the wrong price. Before posting, check:
- The product looks like your photo: its shape, colours, cap and packaging.
- The name and logo on the label are spelled exactly as on the real product.
- Every price, percentage and date matches your store and your offer.
- Seasonal sales and discounts in Egypt can need official approval, so check the current rules before you advertise one.
- The caption stays Egyptian from start to finish, without Gulf words such as الحين.
Sizes for Egyptian platforms
Facebook and Instagram feeds take a 4:5 portrait image, which fills more of a phone screen than a square, while TikTok, Reels and stories need 9:16. Keep the product and any printed text away from the top and bottom of a 9:16 image, where apps place their buttons and captions. Make a feed version and a story version from the same product instead of cropping one image, and add the Egyptian voiceover to the story or Reel so the line lands even with the caption unread.
How to make an Egyptian ad in Lahjty
Add your product
Upload a clear product photo, paste a product link, or import your Salla, Zid, Shopify or WooCommerce store in Products. Every ad then starts from the same saved name, price and photos.
Pick the platform and size
Choose 4:5 for Instagram and Facebook feeds, 9:16 for stories, Reels, TikTok and Snapchat, or 1:1 for a square post, or start from a ready ad style.

Get the ad image
Lahjty builds a new scene around your real product photo and keeps the label, logo and packaging. Each new image is checked before saving; if it is still wrong after one redraw, it is not saved and your credits come back.
Add the caption and voiceover

FAQ
How do I make an Egyptian ad for my product?
Start from a clear product photo, pick the size for your platform, and write a short caption in everyday Egyptian Arabic that opens with a moment your customers know and ends with a clear next step. Then check the product, the label and any offer. In Lahjty you add the product once by photo, link or store import, pick Egyptian Arabic, and get an ad image built on your real photo, captions and headlines in Egyptian Arabic, and an Egyptian voiceover.
Is Egyptian Arabic understood outside Egypt?
Most Arab audiences understand Egyptian Arabic because of Egyptian films, series and songs. Still, a caption feels closest to the market it was written for. Use Egyptian for customers in Egypt, and your customers' own dialect, such as Saudi or Emirati, for other markets.
Will my product look the same in the ad?
Yes. Lahjty builds the new scene around your own product photo and keeps the product, its label and its packaging as they are. Every new ad image is read back before it is saved: the product is compared with your photo and the printed text with the approved words. If it is still wrong after one redraw, the image is not saved and your credits come back.
Can I add a voiceover in Egyptian Arabic?
Yes. Lahjty turns a caption into a voiceover with an Egyptian voice, and also offers Saudi, Gulf, Emirati, Levantine and Fus'ha voices. Use it on stories, Reels and TikTok, so the line is heard in the customer's own dialect even when the caption is not read.
Can Lahjty read my Salla, Zid or Shopify store?
Yes. In Products you can import a Salla, Zid, Shopify or WooCommerce store, or another store that publishes a sitemap and product data. You can also add one product by its link or from your photos. Each saved product keeps its name, price, photos and one optional offer for every ad and caption.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. New accounts get 15 free credits, enough for their first 3 ad images, with no card needed. The same credits cover ad images, captions and voiceovers, so you can see your own product in Egyptian Arabic ads before choosing a plan.
