Arabic vocabulary
يَكْسِبُ is how you say “gives” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
الَّذِي يَكْسِبُهَا نَشَاطًا لِلْجِدِّ فَكَأَنَّهَا مِنَ الْجِدِّ لَمْ تَزَلْ،
which gives it a zeal for seriousness, so that it seems to have always been serious.
يَكْسِبُهَا — gives it. A present-tense verb ending in -ha 'it', so the object is fused onto the verb. The doer is the amusement (via the relative), and the -ha points back to the self/soul, so the verb means 'which gives it...', subject and object both tracked across the clause.
