Arabic vocabulary
يَشْتَرِي is how you say “buy” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
ثُمَّ يَدْخُلُ السُّوقَ لِيَشْتَرِيَ بِهِ،
then he enters the market to buy with it,
لِيَشْتَرِيَ — to buy. The front prefix is a 'to/in order to' particle that does real grammatical work: it pulls the verb out of its plain present into a special 'aim' shape, signaling purpose. So the buying is the goal of entering, not something already happening.
