Arabic vocabulary
How to say “there” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَأَغْلَظَتْ لِي فَقُلْتُ لَهَا وَإِنَّكِ لَهُنَّاكِ
She spoke harshly to me, so I said to her, "And indeed you are there with them."
لَهُنَاكِ — there with them. A place-word 'over there' with an emphatic lam fronting it; it locates the addressee as belonging among that group. The reading is idiomatic, marking her with the wives being criticised.
From: Umar and the Prophet's Wives →OpenArabic teaches words like هُنَّاكِ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
