Answer 5

I don't speak the language, but if I remember correctly, "salam" or "salaam" is an arabic word that means "hello" or "peace" or something.

Answer 6

laprincesse83301 is right. "Salaam" is Arabic for the word "peace." You'll frequently hear it used in the traditional Arab greeting "A salaam alaikum," which brings the response "Wa alaikum salaam." Roughly translated, that means "peace unto you" then "and peace to you."
