What a great brand Yalla would be for Arabic speakers.

It means Let's go, hurry up, come on, ya Allah etc. It's in every other sentence, in songs etc..

Yalla bina Yalla
Dancing in the Desert

Belly dance
I will die ehehe

My two cents. Yalla!

1- As @Mohammad Shahin said "Yalla" for the native Arabic speaker is not just "let's go". It's much much more than that. It's an extremely popular word that is used in so many different situations.

2- Yalla is an informal word. That gives it a bit of a youthful, cool dimension.

3- That's (the popularity & coolness combination) probably why it's nowadays very trendy in Arab countries to call businesses Yalla-Something. There are hundreds if not thousands of Yalla-Something startups, projects, apps, TV shows, radio shows, blogs, websites, podcasts, ...

4- Having said that, I still can't see how a domain investor can sell it for a worthwhile profit (mainly because most Arabic businesses don't see the value of domain names).

P.S. I own the ultra premium domain YallaGuysLetsGoMetaverse.biz and it's available for a bargain price of $100,000. DM me if you're interested.
