Arabic vocabulary
أَدْوَاء is how you say “ailments” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
ورأيته دواء لأدواء النفس،
And you saw it as a remedy for the ailments of the soul.
لِأَدْوَاءِ — for the ailments. A preposition 'for' fused to a noun 'ailments' that heads a possessive pairing with 'the soul'; the preposition forces its ending. The phrase links the remedy to what it cures, and as a construct head this noun takes no 'the' of its own.
