Trilingual Menu Requirements for Lebanese Restaurants

## Lebanon's Linguistic Reality Lebanon's multi-confessional, multilingual society means restaurant menus often need to work in three languages: Arabic, English, and French. While there's no strict legal mandate for trilingual menus (unlike the Gulf states' Arabic-first requirements), market expectations vary by area: - **Beirut**: Arabic/English minimum, French appreciated - **Mount Lebanon**: French widely used alongside Arabic - **North Lebanon**: Arabic primary, English secondary - **South Lebanon**: Arabic primary - **Tourist areas**: English and French essential ## Qaima's Bilingual Foundation Qaima currently supports Arabic-English bilingual menus, which covers the majority of Lebanese market needs. The platform's architecture supports future addition of French as a third language option.
