Example sentences
حَتَّى يَأْتِيهُمَا بِخَبَرِ ذَلِكَ حِينَ يَخْتَلِطُ الظَّلاَمُ،
until news of that reaches them both, when darkness gathers,
يَأْتِيهُمَا — he comes to them both. A present verb 'comes/brings' with a two-people object welded on its end meaning 'to the pair of them'. Arabic packs verb, the destination-people, and their exact count of two into this one word, where English needs three or four.
