هَمّconcern in Arabic

Example sentences

• ولا تكن كالبهيمة التي لا همَّ لها إلا مرعاها،

  and do not be like the beast whose only concern is its pasture,

  هَمَّ — concern. This is the noun denied by the 'there is no' frame, so it takes the special bare object-style ending that frame requires, meaning 'no concern at all'. The construction asserts the total absence of any concern other than the one named.
