Arabic vocabulary
How to say “emaciated” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
أَلَسْت أرى الْأَعْضَاء مِنْك كواسيا
Do I not see your limbs still well-clothed?
كَوَاسِيًا — emaciated. A broken-plural participle 'well-clothed / still covered in flesh', here an accusative of state — 'see your limbs [yet] full', the tanwin marking the condition. True passion would have wasted them; instead they stay plump.
