How to say “tyrant” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَقَالَ الرَّاكِبُ جَبَّارٌ مِنَ الْجَبَابِرَةِ،
So the rider said, "A tyrant from among the tyrants."
جَبَّارٌ — a tyrant. The naming half of an 'X is Y' sentence about the rider -- 'a tyrant'. Its -un tail marks it as indefinite and as the slot that says WHAT he is; Arabic needs no 'is' word, just the bare noun.
