Arabic vocabulary
شَبِعَ is how you say “were satisfied” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وارتعت إذا سعت فشبعت خيل وحمر،
And they grazed when they moved, so the horses and donkeys were satisfied,
فَشَبِعَتْ — so they were satisfied. The fused front letter marks this as the consequence that follows from the 'when' clause, a 'so/then' link rather than simple addition. The rest is a past-tense verb carrying its feminine-plural subject inside it, so one short word delivers both the discourse connection and a complete 'they were satisfied' event.
