Arabic vocabulary
بِدْعٍ is how you say “innovations” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
إِلَى أَنْ فُرُوقَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ فِي مَذَاهِبٍ سَخِيفَةٍ وَبِدَعٍ قَبِيحَةٍ
until the divisions of the Age of Ignorance became foolish doctrines and ugly innovations.
بِدَعٍ — innovations. An indefinite plural standing parallel to the earlier noun in the coordinated list, also a non-human plural. As such, the adjective after it will again agree as feminine singular, not plural.
