Arabic vocabulary
يُصْلِح is how you say “fix” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
فمنا من يصلح خباءه،
Some of us were fixing our tents.
يُصْلِحُ — were fixing. A present-tense verb, 'he mends', with the 'he' subject built into the form. The present shape paints the activity as ongoing at that moment in the past scene, which is why it reads as 'was mending'; Arabic uses the present to show action in progress regardless of the overall time frame.
