How to say “with some” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
وقال أبو الدرداء إني لأستجم نفسي ببعض الباطل كراهية أن أحمل عليها من لحق ما يكلها
And Abu al-Darda said, 'Indeed, I refresh myself with some idle talk, fearing that I might burden it with so much truth that it becomes weary.'
بِبَعْضِ — with some. The bi- means 'with / by means of' and governs the genitive. This noun then heads an 'of' chain with 'the idle talk' after it, 'with some of the idle talk'.
