شَوَىscorch

Example sentences

• واها لفصاحتي شوت أكباد حسدتي فلا بطل الشوى،

  Ah, my eloquence scorched the livers of my enviers, yet the hide was not consumed.

  شَوَتْ — she scorched. A past-tense verb with a built-in feminine-singular 'she/it' subject, agreeing with the eloquence just mentioned as its doer. The feminine ending ties the scorching back to that feminine noun, with no separate pronoun written.

• واها لفصاحتي شوت أكباد حسدتي فلا بطل الشوى،

  Ah, my eloquence scorched the livers of my enviers, yet the hide was not consumed.

  الشَّوَى — the hide. Placed after its verb, this definite noun is the real subject of the negated action and stands in the plain subject ending. The 'the' marks it as a specific known thing, and its post-verb position is normal Arabic order.
