Example sentences

أي تختبر وقال مقاتل تظهر وتبدو وبلوت الشيء إذا اختبرته ليظهر لك باطنه وما خفى منه
Meaning, they will be tested, and Muqatil said: they will appear and be revealed. You say you have tested something to uncover its hidden parts and what was concealed.
وَبَلَوْتَ — you have tested. This is a past-tense verb whose ending carries a second-person 'you' as the doer, so subject and verb are one word. The wa- shifts the discourse from the earlier report to a direct address of the reader, opening a general 'you say...' example. The fused ending is how Arabic packs the subject pronoun into the verb without a separate word.
