Example sentences
تبدلت أوراقه عن الورق غربان البين فقامت تندب الآثار
Its leaves were replaced by the ravens of parting, and they stood lamenting the traces,
غِرْبَانَ — ravens. This noun is the replacement that the leaves turned into, set in the accusative as the thing that came in their stead, and it heads a possessive pairing, 'ravens of...'. So it both takes the case of what replaced and opens the 'of' relationship completed by the next word.
