يَغْضَبُونَthey become angry

Example sentences

• وَيَغْضَبُونَ لِمَحَارِمِي إِذَا اِسْتُحِلَّتْ كَمًّا يَغْضَبُ النَّمِرُ إِذَا حُرِبَ

  And they become angry for my forbidden things when they are treated as permissible, just as the tiger becomes angry when it is attacked.

  وَيَغْضَبُونَ — and they become angry. The wa- on the front is the 'and' joining this to the previous clause, and the verb after it is present-tense with a 'they' subject carried in its -una ending. The form pictures their anger as a recurring response, not a single past event. So the word bundles the connector, the action, and its plural doers.
