Cultural Insight: Team Sports in Arabic

In Arabic, team sports are often referred to in the plural form, even when talking about a single game or match. For example, you would say كرة القدم (kūrat al-qadam) for ‘football’ instead of the singular form. This reflects the emphasis on unity and teamwork in sports culture.
