تَغْتَرَّْ be deceived

A derived reflexive verb 'to be taken in / deluded', with its 'you' subject inside it. The preceding 'do not' bends its ending into the clipped jussive shape that always marks a negative command, doubling the final consonant under a silencing mark. The form itself thus reads as a prohibition: don't let yourself be fooled.
