Arabic vocabulary
How to say “trial” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وأقل محنة الكبير أن تقع النواة في الكوز،
The smallest trial of the elder is for the kernel to fall into the jug.
مِحْنَةِ — trial. The owned half of 'the least of trial', in the genitive because it completes the superlative pairing, and itself the head of a further pairing with 'the elder'. Arabic chains such 'of' links, so this noun completes one pairing and opens the next.
