Arabic vocabulary
How to say “combine” in Arabic, with pronunciation and real example sentences from OpenArabic texts.
فتجمع بين سرعةِ الحركة وصوابِ الاتجاه
Thus, you combine speed of movement with correctness of direction.
فَتَجْمَعُ — thus, you combine. The 'fa-' draws the upshot: 'so you combine...'. The verb 'gather / bring together' takes 'between' next — Arabic 'combines BETWEEN' things — to name the two you finally hold at once: speed and right direction.
From: Purifying Your Intentions →فَأَحَبَّبْتُ أَنْ أَتَزَوَّجَ إِمْرَأَةً تَجْمَعُهُنَّ،
So I wanted to marry a woman who would gather them.
تَجْمَعُهُنَّ — she gathers them. A present-shape verb with the doer 'she' inside it and an attached -hunna ('them', a group of females) as its object. That 'them' points back to the sisters mentioned before, so the verb says she would gather those women together.
From: Marriage and Financial Justice →وَيَهِشُّونَ لَهَا، لِأَنَّهَا تَجْمَعُ الأَنْفُسَ وَتُرِيحُ الْقَلْبَ مِنْ كَدِّ الْفِكْرِ
And they are delighted by it, because it gathers the souls and eases the heart from the toil of thought.
تجم — it gathers. A present-tense verb whose subject 'it' is built into its shape, with no separate doer word needed. The 'it' refers back to the wit, so the verb states what that earlier-named thing does to the souls that follow.
