Arabic vocabulary
How to say “one who asks” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
إِنِّي سَائِلُكَ عَنْ ثَلاَثٍ لَا يَعْلَمُهُنَّ إِلَّا نَبِيٌّ،
I ask you about three things that no one knows except a prophet.
سَائِلُكَ — one who asks you. A doer-noun (active participle) 'one asking' carrying an attached 'you' as its object, so 'I am going to ask you' is built from a noun rather than a finished verb. The participle expresses ongoing intent, and the suffix supplies whom the asking targets.
From: What Was Created First →OpenArabic teaches words like سَائِلٌ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
