Example sentences

• وَاِنْتَزَعَ الْوَزِيرُ مَدْرَسَةَ جَدِّهِ وَسَلَّمَهَا إِلَى اِبْنِ الْجَوْزِيِّ،

  The minister seized his grandfather's school and handed it over to Ibn al-Jawzi,

  وَاِنْتَزَعَ — and seized. This joins a linking 'and' to a derived-pattern past verb 'seized/wrested away', whose built-up shape carries a 'forcibly take from' sense. The verb carries its own subject-slot for the noun named next, and the 'and' chains the action on.
