Arabic vocabulary
هَمَلٌ is how you say “stray” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
بل يتركهم هملًا بمنزلة الأنعام السائمة
Rather, leaving them to wander like grazing cattle.
هَمَلًا — stray. This noun names the resulting state, abandoned and untended, and wears the indefinite accusative ending heard as '-an'. It works as a state-description hanging off the verb, telling you the condition in which they are left rather than naming a new thing.
