Example sentences

فإن ترقت همته المقيتة إلى الكذب في النقل ، والتزوير في الطباق ، فقد استراح ،
For if his vile ambition reaches lying in transmission and falsifying documents, then he has found ease,
المَقِيتَةُ — vile. This is an adjective, 'vile, loathsome', and the al- makes it definite to match the noun it describes. An Arabic adjective trails its noun and copies its definiteness, gender, and ending; here it agrees with the feminine 'ambition' before it.
