Arabic vocabulary
How to say “the two women” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
عَنِ الْمَرْأَتَيْنِ اللَّتَيْنِ تَظَاهَرَتَا عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ
From the two women who conspired against the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace.
الْمَرْأَتَيْنِ — the two women. A two-women noun: the '-ayn' ending packs in both 'exactly two' and the 'of' case the preposition demands, and the word is feminine. Arabic folds the count of two and gender into the ending, where English needs 'the two women'.
