دِسَارٌnails in Arabic

Example sentences

• ثم بنى لأهل الصلاح ذاتُ ألواحٍ وُدسرٍ فسلموا وغنموا وبحر الباقون كالجزر،

  Then He built for the people of righteousness a vessel of planks and nails; they were saved and prospered, while the rest were submerged like the ebbing tide,

  وَدُسُرٍ — and nails. The attached connector adds a second building material alongside the first, and a coordinated noun takes the same role and ending as the one it joins. So this word keeps the 'of' ending of the previous noun, extending 'planks' to 'planks and nails'.
