How to say “that” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وبأن القراء لا يحفظون إلا شواذ القراءة
and that the reciters do not preserve except the rare readings.
وَبِأَنَّ — and that. This couples the conjunction with the preposition 'bi-' fused with the particle 'anna', giving 'and that', and 'anna' drives its following subject into the accusative. It introduces another claimed belief, the 'bi-' tying it back to an earlier verb of thinking.
