Arabic vocabulary
How to say “recite” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
رجل تعلم العلم وعلمه وقرأ القرآن وأقرأه ليقول الناس هو عالم وقارئ،
A man who learned knowledge, taught it, and recited the Quran, but did so for people's praise, saying: He is a scholar and a reciter,
وَأَقْرَأَهُ — and taught it. 'And' plus the causative shape of 'recite' ('made others recite'), with '-hu' (it) attached. Where the bare verb is to read, this lengthened form means to teach reading; the suffix points to the Quran.
From: Deeds for God Alone →OpenArabic teaches words like أَقْرَأَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
