Example sentences
وَيَرْجِعُ ذُبَابُ سَيْفِهِ فَأَصَابَ رُكْبَةَ عَامِرِ فَمَاتَ مِنْهُ،
The tip of his sword snapped back and struck Amir's knee, and he died from it.
عَامِرِ — Amir. The name closing the ownership pairing: it is the owner, so the knee is his. Standing as the second half of such a pairing, it takes an 'of'-type ending that flags it as possessing the noun before it, even though English would just say 'Amir's'.
