Arabic vocabulary
أَلْوَان is how you say “colors” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
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.
