Example sentences

• وقال علي بن أبي طالب روحوا القلوب واطلبوا لها طرف الحكمة فإنها تمل كما تمل الأبدان

  Ali ibn Abi Talib said, 'Refresh the hearts and seek for them a portion of wisdom, for they get weary as bodies get weary.'

  تَمَلُّ — get weary. A present-tense verb 'grow weary'; its doubled-root shape gives the worn-out sense. Because the hearts count as a non-human plural, the verb takes the feminine-singular 'it/they' form rather than a human plural, agreement English never marks.
