Example sentence

من أخبار جحا الأحمق من حماقات جحا

From Joha's tales of foolishness:

الأحمق foolish

A describing word, 'the foolish', matched to Joha and following him as a standing epithet. In Arabic a describing word trails the noun it describes and shares its definiteness, so its 'the' echoes the name's own definiteness.
