Arabic vocabulary
يَحْمِي is how you say “protects” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وإدمان الحلو يرخي الشهوة ويحمي البدن،
Continuous consumption of sweets weakens appetite and heats the body.
يَحْمِي — it protects. This present-tense verb carries its subject inside it, still the sweet-indulgence topic, and names the second effect. The doer is built into the verb's shape, so no separate 'it' word appears.
