Arabic vocabulary
How to say “only” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
كأنها رضيت بهم ورضوا بها وهذا أبلغ من مجرد كونها مرضية فقط
As if it pleased them and they were pleased with it, and this is more expressive than merely being satisfactory.
فَقَطْ — only. A restricting word 'only / just', limiting the prior idea to that bare description. It pins down 'merely satisfactory and no more', doing the exclusive work of English 'only'.
