How to say “body” in Arabic, with pronunciation and real example sentences from OpenArabic texts.
احمل جسدك على القليل المنتظم من الطاعات، فالقليل الدائم أثبت من الكثير المنقطع
Engage your body in a little but consistent worship, for a little that is continuous is more steady than much that is sporadic.
جَسَدَكَ — your body. 'jasad' = 'body'; '-ka' = 'your', so 'your body'.
From: On Sincerity →فأنماث بالجسد عقله كإيماث الرميس،
His intellect dissolved in the body, like the melting of a carcass.
بِالْجَسَدِ — in the body. A 'with/in' preposition is fused to the front, marking where or by what the dissolving happened, and it forces the noun into the 'of' ending. The 'the' makes the body definite, framing it as the medium of the dissolving.
From: Adam and the Rebel →OpenArabic teaches words like جَسَدٌ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
