How to say “punishment of” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
Example sentences
أَعْظَمُ الْمُعَاقِبَةَ أَنْ لَا يَحِسَّ الْمُعَاقِبُ بِالْعُقُوبَةِ،
The greatest punishment is that the one being punished does not feel the punishment.
بِالْعُقُوبَةِ — by the punishment. The prefix bi- ('by/of') is a preposition forcing the noun after it into the 'of...' ending, plus the 'the' of the noun. It links 'feel' to its object, telling you feels WHAT: the punishment. So the small bi- ties the sensing to the very penalty unfelt.
