نَدَمُregret

Example sentences

• فإنك لا تدري متى يفجأك الأجل، فتندم حيث لا ينفع الندم

  For indeed you do not know when your end may strike you, so you will regret when regret is of no use.

  النَّدَمُ — regret. This is the subject of the verb for 'is of use', standing in the subject case shown by its ending. Arabic often places the verb before its subject, so the doer here arrives after the verb rather than before it as English expects.
