Example sentences

  She combs them and stands over them.

  وَتَمْشُطُهُنَّ — and she combs them. The opening wa- ('and') joins this to the previous verb, continuing the list of what the woman would do. It is a present-shape verb with 'she' inside it and an attached -hunna ('them', females) as object, again pointing back to the sisters.
