How to say “the oven” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
رَمَيْتُ بِهَا فِي التَنُّورِ فَاحْتَرَقَتْ
I threw her into the oven, and she burned.
التَنُّورِ — the oven. A definite noun, marked by al-, standing after the 'into' preposition and so in the genitive. The al- makes it the specific oven of the story rather than just any oven, which is why English gives it 'the'.
