How to say “allow to be taken” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
لَا أُكْلٍ نُصْرَتُهُمْ إِلَى غَيْرِي
I will not allow their support to go to anyone else.
أُكْلٍ — allow to be taken. This is the verb-like word under the negation, read idiomatically as 'allow to be handed over'. After the refusal particle it carries the denied action, what the speaker will not let happen. Its sense is read from the surrounding clause, with the negation governing it.
