Example sentences

• وَالْأَمَانِيِ الْبَاطِلَةِ وَالْغُرُورِ وَالتَسْوِيفِ بِالْعَمَلِ

  False hopes, self-deception, and delaying action.

  وَالْأَمَانِيِ — and the hopes. Two pieces: wa- ('and') continues the list, and the noun is a definite plural built on an irregular pattern. It is in the genitive, carried over from the earlier preposition that governs this run of items, and it heads onto a description with the next word.
