اشْتَبَهَconfuse

Example sentences

• وكلما اشتغل بالشهوات، كدر قلبه، واشتبه عليه الأمر

  But the more he engages in desires, the murkier his heart becomes, and things become confused for him.

  وَاشْتَبَهَ — and confused becomes. The connector 'and' fused to a past-tense verb, 'becomes confused', adding a second bad consequence. Its subject slot is filled later in the clause by the noun for 'the matter'.
