Hi everyone,
I'm working on a Palestinian text, and just wanted to confirm what this means:
....وخبر محمّص،، حد الاحتراق فتافيته ترشم بلوزة بيجامتك
So basically the crumbs are strewn across her pyjama top?
Thank you!

crumbs blemish
The context doesn't specify whether it refers to the actual fresh crumbs or blemishes (stains) of old crumbs on the blouse. This is an option for you to avail of if appropriate.
