How to say “the valley” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
عَلَى أَبِي الْحَكَمِ سَيِّدِ أَهْلِ الْوَادِيِ
By Abu al-Hakam, the chief of the people of the valley.
الْوَادِيِ — the valley. The al- makes it definite — *the* valley — and it closes the 'people of...' pairing in the 'of' (genitive) shape. Together they identify the community the chief leads.
