Example sentence

وَقَدْ شَدَّها بِقَيْدَيْنِ عَظِيمَيْنِ إِلَى قَدَمَيْهِ،

And he had bound her with two heavy chains to his feet.

بِقَيْدَيْنِ with two chains

A 'bi-' prefix fronts a dual noun, so one word means 'with two chains', the prefix marking the instrument and the dual ending folding 'exactly two' into the noun's own shape. It names the means by which the hand was bound, count and all, in a single word.
