How to say “alcohol” in Arabic, with pronunciation and real example sentences from OpenArabic texts.
وَلِهَذَا تَرَى مُدْمِنَ الْخَمْرِ وَالْجِمَاعِ لَا يَلْتَذُّ بِذَلِكَ عُشْرَ الْتِذَاذِ مَنْ لَمْ يُدْمِنْ
This is why you see that the addict to wine and intimacy does not enjoy it even a tenth as much as one who is not addicted.
الْخَمْرِ — wine. The owner completing 'the addict of wine'; genitive, holding the 'the'.
From: The Discipline of Foresight →وَكَانَ يشرب الْخمر ويجلده النَّبِي
And he used to drink alcohol, and the Prophet would lash him.
الخَمْرَ — the alcohol. This noun carries 'the' and its ending marks it as the object of the drinking verb. The accusative ending identifies the wine as what was drunk, the thing the action falls on.
