Arabic vocabulary
How to say “be planted” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
قَالَ وَأَمَرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ تُرْكَزَ رَايَتُهُ بِالْحَجُونِ
He said, and the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, ordered that his banner be planted at al-Hajun.
تُرْكَزَ — be planted. This is a passive verb in its goal-marking (subjunctive) shape, pushed there by the 'that' before it: the banner undergoes the action ('be planted') rather than doing it. The passive vowels and the subjunctive ending together show this is something to be done to the banner.
From: Conquest of Mecca Account →OpenArabic teaches words like تُرْكَزَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
