Arabic vocabulary
مُلِئَ is how you say “had been filled” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
فَدَخَلَ فَوَجَدَ الْقِفََّ قَدْ مُلِئَ،
Then he entered and found that the basket had been filled.
مُلِئَ — had been filled. This is the passive form: the basket undergoes the filling rather than doing it, with the filler left unnamed. Arabic builds the passive not with a helper word like 'was' but by reshaping the vowels inside the verb, so the form sits close to its active twin yet flips who does and who receives.
From: Three Companions Promised Paradise →OpenArabic teaches words like مُلِئَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
