أَرْضَعَnursed
How to say “nursed” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
Example sentences
وأرضعته بلبانها،
She nursed him with her milk.
وَأَرْضَعَتْهُ — and she nursed him. The opening particle joins this on, and the verb carries a feminine 'she' subject by its ending plus an attached 'him' object, so one word means 'and she nursed him'. Arabic packs the female doer and the male object both into the single verb.
