"Thank you, Rawad."

Translation: شُكْراً يا رَواد.

[KevinPrehn]

What does يا between شكراً" and the Rawad mean?

[AniOhevYayin]

You put it before a person's name when doing direct address. It's a particle that doesn't really have a direct translation, so it seems like a filler in English. If you want to get used to it with an English equivalent, you can think of it as sort of like "hey" in English.

[AbrahamabnHarry]

It means "O". Examples:

اين انت يا ابني

Where are you, O my son.
