Example sentences

• ليؤكل في الصيف البارد، وفي الشتاء الحار إدخال طعام على طعام آخر رديء

  Cold foods should be eaten in the summer, and hot foods in the winter; introducing food upon another food is bad.

  رَدِيءٌ — bad. This is the predicate of the verbless judgment, 'is bad', describing the act of piling food on food. Arabic states 'X is bad' with no word for 'is', and the -un ending marks it as an indefinite description of the subject.
