How to say “raising” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَبَالَغَتْ فِي تَرْبِيَتِهِ،
And she went to extremes in raising him,
تَرْبِيَتِهِ — raising him. This action-noun, 'the raising-of', has the 'him' pronoun on its end, marking the child as the one raised, and it sits in the genitive because the 'in' before it governs it. Arabic packs the action, the 'in', and the object into one word. The -hi points back to the son.
