Arabic vocabulary
أَوْرَث is how you say “to cause” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وكم من رجل غضب على ولده أو صديقه، فقال كلمة قاسية فرقت بينهما، أو فعل فعلة شنعاء أورثت عداوة
How many a man has gotten angry at his child or friend, uttered a harsh word that separated them, or committed a terrible deed that led to enmity.
أَوْرَثَتْ — that resulted in. A past-tense verb with a feminine 'it' ending, agreeing with the feminine 'deed' it describes: a deed that bequeathed. The feminine ending tracks that its subject is the deed, not the man.
