Arabic vocabulary
How to say “I betrayed” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
إِنْ تَكُنْ خُنْتَنَا فَعَنْكَ عَفَا اللَّهُ وَإِنْ كُنْتُ خُنْتُكُمْ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي
If you betrayed us, may God forgive you; and if I betrayed you, forgive me.
خُنْتُكُمْ — I betrayed you. A past-tense verb with its 'I' subject built in by its ending and an attached 'you (plural)' as its object, so one word holds doer and the wronged party. It states the betrayal supposed in the second 'if'. Both persons ride inside.
