How to say “colors” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
Example sentences
وتكثير الألوان محير للطبيعة،
Having too many types of food confuses the body's nature.
الأَلْوَانِ — the colors. This definite noun sits in the possessed, 'of'-type ending because the action-noun before it owns it: 'the multiplying of the kinds'. Arabic builds 'X of Y' by setting the two nouns side by side with no word for 'of', and the second word takes this special ending to show it is the owned half.
