Arabic vocabulary
How to say “increase” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
ألم تر إلى المريض كيف يمتنع عن الطعام اللذيذ خوفًا من زيادة المرض، ويشرب الدواء المرّ رجاء للشفاء؟
Have you not seen how a sick person refrains from delicious food fearing an increase in illness, and drinks bitter medicine hoping for a cure?
زِيَادَةِ — an increase. This noun opens a possessive pair, 'increase of the illness', linked straight to its owner with no word for 'of'. Governed by the preceding 'of', it sits in that form.
