Example sentences

• وإدمان الحلو يرخي الشهوة ويحمي البدن،

  Continuous consumption of sweets weakens appetite and heats the body.

  يُرْخِي — it weakens. This present-tense verb, 'it slackens, it loosens', has its subject inside it, pointing back to the sweet-indulgence topic. Arabic carries the doer within the verb's form, so the word alone tells you it is 'it' doing the loosening.
