Arabic vocabulary
How to say “you marry” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَقُلْتُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ مَا يَمْنَعُكَ أَنْ تَتَزَوَّجَ؟
I said to Muhammad, "What prevents you from marrying?"
تَتَزَوَّجَ — you marry. A present verb ('marry') pushed into its subjunctive shape by the 'that' before it; the altered ending shows that particle's control. With its 'you' subject built in, it names the act one is being asked why he holds back from.
From: The Prophet's Marriage to Khadijah →OpenArabic teaches words like تَتَزَوَّجَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
