Arabic vocabulary
حُدُود is how you say “limits” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
من أدبِه أن يلزمَ المرءُ تواضعًا معرفيًّا يرى الدليلَ، ويدركُ حدودَ فهمه، ويستحضر أن المقاصدَ أوسعُ من جزئيةٍ واحدة
Part of its etiquette is that a person maintains intellectual humility: seeing the evidence, recognizing the limits of his understanding, and remembering that the objectives are broader than a single issue.
حُدُودَ — the limits. A broken plural, 'the bounds / limits,' in the -a form as object of 'recognize.' It heads an 'of' pair with 'his understanding': he sees the edges of his own grasp.
