How to say “my soldiers” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَارْتَقَى بِي الْحَالَ حَتَّى صَارَ إِبْلِيسُ مِنْ جُنْدِيَّ
My condition rose so high that Iblis became one of my soldiers.
جُنْدِيَّ — my soldiers. A noun with the first-person 'my' fused to its end, in the genitive after 'from among'. The plural sense is drawn out by that partitive 'one of', and the attached pronoun marks the soldiers as the speaker's own, completing the reversal.
