Arabic vocabulary
How to say “so reached” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
عَامَ الْفَتْحِ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ قُرَيْشًا،
It was the Year of the Conquest, and that news reached the Quraysh.
فَبَلَغَ — so reached. The prefix fa- here is a 'so/then' that moves the narration to the next consequence, and it is welded onto a past-tense verb 'reached'. Beyond the visible 'so', its job is to mark sequence, signalling that what follows is the result of the year-naming just given.
From: Conquest of Mecca Account →OpenArabic teaches words like فَبَلَغَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
