And someone uprooted the trees of her orchard, and the waterwheels stopped working.

وَتَعَطَّلَتْ and it stopped working

'Wa-' adds a parallel clause, attaching to a past verb in a self-action pattern 'stopped working / fell idle'. The -t ending marks a feminine-singular subject ('the waterwheels', treated as a unit) which comes after the verb; the pattern frames the stopping as happening of itself.
