مِثْلِكَlike you

Example sentences

• وَإِنْ رَجُلًا قَالَ لَهُ أَيَأْتِي مِنْ مِثْلِكَ هَذَا؟

  And if a man were to say to him, "Would this come from someone like you?"

  مِثْلِكَ — like you. A noun 'like / equal of' ending in -ka 'your (to a man)', so it fuses 'like' with 'you' in one word. Sitting after the preposition, it takes the genitive ending too, reading 'from one like you' as a single governed unit.
