Hello!
In a sentence like " هو بيشتغل طول الاسبوع بس مافيش يوم السبت" I understand that "he works all the week except Saturday".
But I can also understand that "بس مافيش" means "but there is not", and in this case, to me the sentence is rather weird (he works all the week but there is not the Saturday".
What am I saying exactly with this بس مافيش?
May I put this "بس مافيش" instead of "except" in any situation?
Thanks.
