Arabic vocabulary
How to say “third” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَأَكُونُ ثَالِثَكُمَا
So I will be the third with you two.
ثَالِثَكُمَا — the third with you two. An ordinal, 'third', here the complement of 'I will be', so it takes the object-style (accusative) ending. A dual pronoun, 'you two', is fused on its end, and that dual is Arabic's dedicated 'exactly two' form, so the one word means 'the third of you two'.
From: Charity and Stinginess →OpenArabic teaches words like ثَالِثَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
