Arabic vocabulary
How to say “interpretation” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
والأصولي الذي طرد التأويل عند الآخرين جهميا ومعتزليا وضالا،
And the theologian who pursues allegorical interpretation is called Jahmi, Mu'tazili, and misguided by the others.
التَّأْوِيلَ — interpretation. This is the object of that verb, in the accusative — a verbal noun, 'allegorical interpretation' (reading texts non-literally). It is the practice that earns him the labels to come. The accusative marks its object role.
From: Scripture Over Speculation →OpenArabic teaches words like تَأْوِيلٌ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
