Arabic vocabulary
أَنْتُمْ is how you say “you are” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in real example sentences from classical texts below.
إِنَّ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ يَصُدُّكُمْ عَنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ وَعَنْ الصَّلَاةِ فَهَلْ أَنْتُمْ مُنْتَهُونَ ؟ ،
This hadith prevents you from remembering God and from prayer; will you stop?
أَنْتُمْ — you. A standalone plural 'you' pronoun, fronted as the subject of the question for emphasis on the addressees. Arabic usually folds 'you' into the verb, so spelling it out as a separate word stresses 'you, specifically', the people asked whether they will stop.
From: Sincerity in Prophetic Knowledge →وَلَا تَتَغَيَّرُوا أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ
And do not turn against him.
أَنْتُمْ — you (plural). A standalone 'you all' pronoun added for stress, even though the verb already names its subject. Arabic drops in a separate pronoun like this to drive the point home, a 'you, you yourselves'.
From: Sheba's Garden and Destruction →فيقول الناس ألا ترون إلى ما أنتم فيه إلى ما بلغكم، ألا تنظرون من يشفع لكم إلى ربكم؟
Then the people will say: "Do you not see the state we are in and what has come upon us? Will you not look for someone to intercede with your Lord for us?"
أَنْتُمْ — you are. A standalone 'you (plural)' pronoun, the subject inside the relative clause. Spelling it out as a separate word, rather than burying it in a verb, frames the bare 'you are' statement that the next word locates.
From: The Prophet's Intercession →OpenArabic teaches words like أَنْتُمْ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
