وَحْدَهَاalone in Arabic

Example sentences

• فَالنِّيَّاتُ لَا تُغْنِي وَحْدَهَا إِذَا كَانَ الْعَمَلُ غَيْرُ صَحِيحٍ،

  So intentions alone do not suffice if the deed is not correct.

  وَحْدَهَا — by itself. A fixed adverbial noun meaning 'on their own', built on a base for 'aloneness' with a feminine pronoun '-ha' attached pointing back to 'the intentions'. The whole word restricts the verb: intentions, taken by themselves, are what fall short.
