ضَرَبstrike in Arabic

Example sentences

• فإن جاء آخر ينازعه، فاضربوا عنق الآخر

  If another comes to dispute him, strike the neck of the latter.

  فَاضْرِبُوا — then strike. This is fa- (so/then) with a command-form verb addressed to a group, 'then strike', the plural 'you all' built into its ending. This is a direct plural command; the fa- ties it as the response to the condition just set.
