How to say “camel” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
أي نجعله كخف البعير
Meaning, We will make it like the camel's hoof.
البَعِيرِ — the camel. This noun carries 'the' and owns the noun before it: 'hoof of the camel'. The two nouns sit directly side by side to mean 'X of Y', with no separate word for 'of'; the first gives up its own article and takes definiteness from this owning noun.
