Arabic vocabulary
How to say “waterwheels” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وَأَقْلَعَ أَشْجَارًا بُسْتَانِهَا، وَتَعَطَّلَتْ المَرَاوِزُ،
And someone uprooted the trees of her orchard, and the waterwheels stopped working.
المروز — the waterwheels. The definite subject of 'stopped working', placed after its verb. With 'al-' it names the specific waterwheels; because the verb came first and treats this as a single unit, the agreement on the verb was feminine-singular.
