The origins of the word Dubai are in dispute, as some believe it to have originated from Persian, while some believe that Arabic is the linguistic root of the word.
According to Fedel Handhal, researcher in the history and culture of the UAE, the word Dubai may have come from the word Daba (a derivative of Yadub), which means to creep; the word may be a reference to the flow of Dubai Creek inland.

good research..

I've also heard the explaination that its possibly a corruption of the English "The Bay" refering to earlier times when English and Dutch vessels used to call in along the coast for harbour and trading.

My definition -

Hmm... Keep it rolling

JAPAN- Jump And Pump All Night !

Darn, it's not even funny...

I think this place is sad or maybe im just stuck in self sympathy for having to live here

This might cheer you up. I wrote this sometime back when I used to get depressed by the ample roadworks and detours.

Ahem...

I lead a sad and alienated life which would include beer and p<3n if I wasn't a conservative so here... I accentuate my miserly existence by polluting forums into wasted lands with undigested ideas that tread and crawl towards the mind of other similar melted rationales to ensure the longevity of banal existence

that was supposed to cheer me up? : /

I was being sarcastic. But then, the fact that you are not alone (There are many like us!) can be comforting!

"THE MOST EXPENSIVE THIRD WORLD COUNTRY IN THE WORLD"

hope that helps

Whoa. Firstly, Dubai is not a country.

And then, why would you call it third-world?

though it's not a country, Dubai is more well known than the UAE

Well... it means : "Do Buy" LOL just kidding

I was also interested in understanding the meaning of the word "Dubai" since its not arabic even. all the other emirates has arabic meanings but not Dubai.

The only thing which could make sense to me tat it means: "Du Bahi" which is basically an Indian word means: the two "Bahi" brothers ...(Du means 2 and Bahi is the name of the Family). This name came after 2 Indian brothers started a small trade on the cost of dubai when this place was nothing at all. The "Bahi" brothers then became the reference for the place and slowly the word has been modified to Dubai
