مَطِيَّةِmount in Arabic

Example sentences

• فَإِنْ لَمْ يَكُنْ لِلْمَطِيَّهِ خِطَامٌ وَلَا زِمَامٌ شَرِدَتْ فِي كُلِّ مَذْهَبٍ

  If the mount had neither a bridle nor a rein, it ran off in every direction.

  لِلْمَطِيَّهِ — for the mount. The li- prefix marks possession ('for/to'), governing a definite noun ('the mount') into the genitive. With the 'was not', it builds 'the mount had no...', the have-not frame.
