شَجَرٌtrees in Arabic

Example sentences

• وأقلع شجر بستانها وتعطلت المروز،

  Her garden trees were uprooted, and the streams were dried up.

  شَجَرُ — trees. This is the delayed subject of the passive verb, the trees that were uprooted, carrying the subject ending though it follows the verb. It also heads a possessive pairing, 'trees of her garden', so it both receives the passive action and opens the 'of' link.
