Arabic vocabulary
مَرْيَم is how you say “Mary” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
فيبعث الله تعالى عيسى بن مريم صلى الله عليه وسلم ،
Then Allah, the Exalted, will send Jesus, son of Mary, peace be upon him,
مَرْيَمَ — Mary. This completes 'son of Mary', in the genitive as owner — and it is a 'diptote' (a proper name dropping nunation), so its ending stays bare. It names Jesus's mother.
From: The Return of Jesus →OpenArabic teaches words like مَرْيَم through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
