Arabic vocabulary
يَنْطِقْ is how you say “speak” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
فلم ينطق حملًا لنفسه على التوكل بزعمه،
Thus, he did not speak, believing that remaining silent was trusting in God, according to his claim.
يَنْطِقْ — he speaks. This present-tense verb sits in its cut-off (jussive) shape because of the preceding past-negator, with its 'he' subject built in, together meaning 'he did not speak'. The mood change, not a 'did' helper, carries the negated past.
From: Trust in God →OpenArabic teaches words like يَنْطِقْ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
