أولىdeserving in Arabic

Example sentences

• فما أولاك بالخير والتوقير ،

  Then how deserving you are of goodness and respect,

  أَوْلَاكَ — makes you deserving. This is a verb of the 'how X you are' exclamation pattern, with the attached -ka 'you' as its object, addressed to a single male. Arabic builds amazement with this fixed verb-plus-object frame, so the word means 'how it makes you worthy'; the -ka is the one being marvelled at.
