Arabic vocabulary
How to say “previously married” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
قَالَ بِكْرًا أَمْ ثَيِّبًا
He said, "A virgin or previously married?"
ثَيِّبًا — previously married. Like its partner before the 'or', this noun is indefinite and takes the -an accusative ending, marking it as the second option in the either/or question. It stands parallel to the first choice the questioner gave.
From: Marriage and Financial Justice →OpenArabic teaches words like ثَيِّبٌ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
