الْعُيُونُthe springs in Arabic

Example sentences

• فَلَمْ يُفَاجِئْ الْقَوْمَ لَيْلَةً بَعْدَمَا هَدَأَتْ الْعُيُونُ

  So the people were not surprised that night, after the springs had settled.

  الْعُيُون — the springs. A definite plural noun and the subject of the settling, so it takes the plain naming ending; its non-human-plural status is what put the feminine ending on the verb before it. It is the thing that had quieted.
