تُؤَخِّرْdelay

Example sentences

• ولا تؤخر عمل اليوم إلى الغد، فلعل الغد لا يأتيك

  And do not delay today's work until tomorrow, for perhaps tomorrow will not come to you.

  تُؤَخِّرْ — you delay. A present-tense verb pushed into the clipped command-negation shape by the forbidding particle before it. That particle is the trigger that shortens the ending; the 'you' subject stays inside the verb, and together they mean 'do not delay'.
