Example sentences

• فتخضع الْأَعْنَاق وتنكسر النُّفُوس وتخشع الْأَصْوَات ويذوب الْكبر كَمَا يذوب الْملح فِي المَاء،

  So necks are humbled, souls are broken, voices become subdued, and arrogance melts like salt in water.

  الْأَعْنَاقُ — necks. The subject of 'submit', a broken plural, nominative, after its verb — and since it is a non-human plural, the verb before it stayed singular-feminine. Bowed necks picture submission.
