Arabic vocabulary
يَهِشُّونَ is how you say “are delighted” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَيَهِشُّونَ لَهَا، لِأَنَّهَا تَجْمَعُ الأَنْفُسَ وَتُرِيحُ الْقَلْبَ مِنْ كَدِّ الْفِكْرِ
And they are delighted by it, because it gathers the souls and eases the heart from the toil of thought.
وَيَهِشُّونَ — and they are delighted. Front wa- is the joiner 'and'; the verb is present tense and its ending builds in a plural 'they' subject, so the doers live inside the verb. The wa- links this reaction to the previous statement as a parallel ongoing response.
