Arabic vocabulary
How to say “colors” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
والحرث مخضرًا ومصفرًا مختلف الألوان والأزهار،
And the tilled land, green and yellow, with various colors and flowers,
الأَلْوَانِ — the colors. In the genitive as the owned half of 'varied in colors', this completes the possessive pairing started by the previous word. The ending and side-by-side order carry the 'of/in' sense with no separate word, naming what the variety consists of.
