أَحْضَرَbring

Example sentences

• فقال الوالي أحضروه

  The governor said: Bring him.

  أَحْضِرُوهُ — bring him. This is a plural command 'bring (you all)' with the attached 'him' as object. The command is shaped for the addressees and the object pronoun is stuck on the end, so one word says 'bring him'. The 'him' points to the neighbor being summoned.

• أبلاهم الله بالغلبة فافتح عينك ، وأحضر ذهنك ، وأرعني سمعك ،

  May God test them with defeat; so open your eyes, bring your mind, and lend me your ear,

  وَأَحْضِرْ — and bring. This is the bound wa- 'and' plus a command verb, 'and bring, summon', addressed to a single male. The wa- coordinates this order with the previous one, and the imperative shape carries no separate 'you'; the doer is built in.
