Arabic vocabulary
How to say “last night” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَقَالُوا هَاتِ الَّذِي أَتَيْتَنَا بِهِ الْبَارِحَةَ
And they said, "Bring what you brought to us last night."
الْبَارِحَةَ — last night. This time-noun works as a 'when' adverbial, fixing the moment as the night before, and it takes the object-style ending Arabic uses for such adverbs. Its 'the' marks it as that specific past night. It says when the bringing happened.
