Example sentences
فأعجب والديه فأنفقا عليه كل مكنوز،
He amazed his parents, so they spent on him all their treasures.
وَالِدَيْهِ — his two parents. This is the object of the verb in the dual form, 'his two parents', with the dual ending folding 'exactly two' into the noun where English needs a separate 'two', plus an attached 'his' pointing back to the child. So one word carries object case, the count of two, and the possessor.
