فَكَتَبَthen he wrote

Example sentences

• فَكَتَبَ إِلَيَّ رُقْعَةً يَقُولُ

  Then he wrote me a note saying:

  فَكُتُبٍ — then he wrote. This verb is fronted by an attached 'then' marking the next step in the sequence, with its 'he' subject built in. The joined particle keeps the narrative ordered after the days of absence. The verb supplies 'wrote'.
