Arabic vocabulary
How to say “the very” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
الْلِّسَانُ وَالْعَيْنُ
The tongue and the eye.
الْعَيْنُ — the eye. A definite noun carrying 'the', the second member of the 'tongue and eye' pair. Joined by the preceding 'and', it shares the tongue's role as one of the two things named for discipline. So it completes the pair the earlier lines were building toward.
