Arabic vocabulary
How to say “take me” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَوَثَبْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ مَخَافَةً أَنْ يَأْخُذَنِي
I leaped at him and seized his hand, fearing that he might take me.
يَأْخُذَنِي — take me. This verb has a 'me' object-pronoun attached to its end and sits in the 'aim' (subjunctive) shape forced by the particle before it. So one word means 'that he take me', with the narrator as the one possibly seized. The special ending marks it as the feared possibility, not an event.
