Arabic vocabulary
How to say “ruins” in Arabic, with pronunciation and real example sentences from OpenArabic texts.
تخرب إحداهن الدين بعد أن تخرب الدار،
One of them ruins the religion after she ruins the home,
تُخَرِّبُ — she ruins. A present-tense verb whose 'she' subject is built into its very shape, with no separate pronoun word needed. It carries an attached object on the end naming what gets ruined, so a single word holds the doer, the ongoing action, and what it lands on.
From: Preferring the Hereafter →تخرب إحداهن الدين بعد أن تخرب الدار،
One of them ruins the religion after she ruins the home,
تُخَرِّبَ — she ruins. This verb sits in its subjunctive shape, and the trigger is the 'that' particle right before it; the changed ending is what marks it as subordinate rather than a standalone 'she ruins'. Its 'she' subject is carried inside the verb, and it governs the object that follows.
