Arabic vocabulary
أَدْري is how you say “I know” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
يخرج الدجال في أمتى فيمكث أربعين لا أدري يوماً أو أربعين شهراً، أو أربعين عاماً،
The Dajjal will appear in my nation and will remain for forty—I do not know whether days or months or years.
أَدْرِي — know. A present verb 'know' (its weak final letter shows in the bare ending), with 'I' inside — 'I do not know'. A candid aside: the Prophet is unsure whether the forty is days, months, or years.
From: The Return of Jesus →OpenArabic teaches words like أَدْري through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
