What @shakira did over here is known in the MENA as a "Zaghrouta" or Ululation. It's a high-pitched sound represents overwhelming joy. I remember how Egyptian ladies used to compete in producing the longest and better sounding Zaghrouta during weddings in my village long ago!💕💕 pic.twitter.com/MZm73NzWIS
