Arabic vocabulary
اِمْرَأَتَانِ is how you say “two women” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
خَرَجَتْ اِمْرَأَتَانِ وَمَعَهُمَا صَبِيَّانِ
Two women went out with two boys.
اِمْرَأَتَانِ — two women. This is the dual form, a shape English lacks: instead of adding a separate 'two', Arabic builds 'exactly two' right into the ending of the noun. It is the doer of the going-out, so it takes the naming case, and its dual ending is also what retroactively tells you the singular-looking verb before it actually had two subjects.
