Arabic vocabulary
How to say “say” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَقُلْتُ لَهُ مَا أَمَرْتَنِي أَنْ أَقُولَهُ،
and I said to him what you commanded me to say to him,
أَقُولَهُ — say to him. This present-tense verb carries a built-in 'I' subject and an attached object pronoun, 'I say it', and stands in the subjunctive form because of 'that' before it. The altered ending marks it as the content of the command, not a present fact.
From: The Messenger as Conveyor of Revelation →OpenArabic teaches words like أقول through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
