انْقَضَىended

Example sentences

• وانقضى زمان الدلال وفات وقت النشوز،

  The time of indulgence has ended, and the moments of rebellion have passed.

  وَانْقَضَى — and has ended. The 'and' opens the clause, and beneath it a past-tense verb on a reflexive pattern means 'came to an end / ran out', with its 'he/it' subject following. The reflexive shape conveys the time elapsing of itself, and the verb stands before its subject in normal Arabic order.

  The era of indulgence has ended, and the time for defiance has passed.

  وانقضى — and it has ended. 'Wa-' opens the line, attaching to a past verb 'came to an end / elapsed', with its subject ('the era') named just after. It comes before that subject and carries the implicit 'it' in its form; the verb states that a span of time finished.
