Arabic vocabulary
How to say “I became” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَصِرْتُ أَسْتَزْرِي مَا النَّاسُ فِيهِ،
So I came to despise what people valued in it.
فَصِرْتُ — so I became. This token fuses fa- ('so') with a past-tense verb carrying the -tu 'I' ending. The fa- marks the result of the preceding thought, 'so I came to...', and the verb is one of becoming, signalling a change of state in the speaker. The -tu fixes the speaker as the one who changed.
