Arabic vocabulary
How to say “attachments” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وليجتهد في تخليص قلبه من علائق الدنيا
and strive to free his heart from worldly attachments.
عَلَائِقِ — attachments. The first half of an 'of' pairing, 'attachments of the world', where two nouns sit directly side by side with no separate word for 'of'. Because it follows the preposition 'from' it takes the genitive ending, and it stays without 'the' since its definiteness comes from the owner-noun after it.
From: A Sound Heart Knows →OpenArabic teaches words like عَلَائِقُ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
