We speak the language of hands


Did you know?
ειδικός μανικιούρ και πεντι
κιούρ…. is Greek, for expert manicures and pedicures.

At Oasis Pamper Bar, we speak the language of hands . . . .

The Albanian translation of the word, “hand” is “Gold”. In Portuguese, “hand” is mao, and in Italian, its la mano. Then there is our favorite, the plural of hand in Italian: le mani. In Ateso (or Teso), a language spoken in north-east Uganda and western Kenya, the word for hand is akan. In Armenian, its dzerq, and in Greek, the word for hand is χέρι.

No matter what part of the globe you hail from, when it comes to manicures (and pedicures, as well) , we speak the language of loving care for your hands, nails, skin and feet at Oasis Pamper Bar. For your enjoyment and enlightenment, here are a few translations of the word hand, chosen from more than 4000 languages spoken worldwide.
