Arabic vocabulary
تَكَلَّمْهُ is how you say “speak to him” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
لَمْ تَكَلَّمْهُ الدُّنْيَا، وَلَمْ يُطْغِهِ الْهَوَى
The world did not speak to him, nor did desire overpower him.
تَكَلَّمْهُ — speak to him. This verb sits in the clipped (jussive) form demanded by the 'did not' particle before it, and tacked onto its end is -hu, the 'him' object. So one word carries the verb, the negation-shaped ending, and the object pronoun. The negation word is what dictates the verb's trimmed ending.
