تُسَمِّيهِyou name him in Arabic

Example sentences

• وَأَوْصَى إِنْ وَلَدْتِ غُلَامًا أَنْ تُسَمِّيهِ يَالَادِين

  And he instructed that if you give birth to a son, name him Yaladin.

  أُسَمِّيهِ — you name him. A present-tense verb meaning 'name', carrying a tail pronoun 'him', sitting in the clause opened by the subordinating particle. The 'him' is the one to be named, riding inside the verb. The verb's built-in subject is the addressee, so it reads as 'that you name him'.
