مكسورbroken in Arabic

Example sentences

• فالمدفوق الذي وقع عليه فعلك كالمكسور والمضروب

  So "madfuq" is that which your action falls upon, like "maksur" (broken) and "madrub" (struck).

  كَالْمَكْسُورِ — like 'maksur'. A preposition ka- (like) fused onto a passive participle made definite by al-, 'like the broken one'. The ka- draws a comparison and forces the genitive; the participle is another maf'ul-pattern 'done-to' noun, here 'that which has been broken'.
