أَطْيَبُbest in Arabic

Example sentences

• فَيَقُولُ أَطْيَبُ اللَّبَنَاتِ مَا بَاتَ فِي الضَّرْعِ،

  So he says, 'The best portions of milk are that which stayed overnight in the udder.'

  أَطْيَبُ — best. A 'best/most' (superlative) form, and it opens an 'of' pairing with the noun after it, so together they mean 'the best of the milk-portions'. As the lead word in that pairing and the topic of the sentence, it sits in the plain subject shape. The comparison is folded into the word's pattern rather than added with a separate 'most'.
