Arabic vocabulary
How to say “diminishes” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
تسقط الشهوة وتوجب الكسل،
It diminishes appetite and induces laziness.
تَسْقُطُ — it diminishes. This is a present-tense verb, 'it falls, it drops', with a feminine singular subject already inside it, so no separate 'it' is needed. It comes ahead of its stated subject, the normal Arabic order, and its feminine shape anticipates the feminine noun that follows.
