01

"dickhead / dick-face"

Using the 'abu' (father of) construction — one of Arabic's most productive insult patterns — combined with 'zubb' (dick). It doesn't literally mean the target is the father of the speaker's penis; it's a creative compound that essentially means 'dickhead' or 'dick-face.' The 'abu' prefix in Arabic slang means 'characterized by' or 'associated with,' so abu zubbi = 'the dick guy.'
