Example sentence

بينا تجري براكبها عثرت به أي عثار،

While it runs with its rider, it stumbles with him — what a stumble!

عِثَارٍ falter

In the genitive as the owned half of 'what a stumble', this noun completes the exclamatory pairing. The indefinite ending leaves the stumble general, which heightens the sense of an unmeasured, severe fall, the climax of the line's warning.
