How to say “school” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَاِنْتَزَعَ الْوَزِيرُ مَدْرَسَةَ جَدِّهِ وَسَلَّمَهَا إِلَى اِبْنِ الْجَوْزِيِّ،
The minister seized his grandfather's school and handed it over to Ibn al-Jawzi,
مَدْرَسَةَ — school. A noun 'school' that is the first half of an 'of' possessive pair and the direct object of 'seized', so it wears the object-like ending. It waits for its owner-noun to complete 'school of …'.
