Arabic vocabulary
How to say “I will certainly prevent you” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
أَمَّا وَاللَّهِ لَئِنْ مَنَعْتَنِي هَذَا لَأَمْنَعَنَّكَ مَا هُوَ أَشَدُّ عَلَيْكَ مِنْهُ
By God, if you prevent me from this, I will surely prevent you from something that will be harder on you than this.
لَأَمْنَعَنَّكَ — I will certainly prevent you. An emphatic 'I-will-certainly' verb: a leading 'surely' particle plus a doubled -anna ending bind it into a binding vow, with attached -ka 'you' as object. Arabic stamps the promise onto the verb's own shape, no separate 'will surely' needed.
