Chaoui

Some friends from Syria use the word "Chaoui" to humorously describe a person that puts a lot sugar into their tea (or more general a person that is doing well financially). Is that a common usage in Syria or even other Arabic speaking countries? --Tobias1984 (talk) 20:30, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

Actually the correct word might be Shawi, which means a person living in a rural area or low educational level? --Tobias1984 (talk) 17:30, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

Also a music genre? (in French and/or English)
