Example sentences

  If he wanted to make them laugh

  يُضْحِكَ — make someone laugh. A present-tense verb on the causative pattern — the shape meaning 'make someone do' — in the subjunctive ending forced by the particle before it. Its object is left unspoken, understood as 'people'; the causative force comes from the verb's built-in shape, not a helper word.
