Arabic vocabulary
How to say “you saw us” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
لَقَدْ رَأَيْتَنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ
Indeed, you saw us with the Messenger of Allah.
رَأَيْتَنَا — you saw us. A past verb carrying both the 'you' subject in its tail and the object pronoun '-na' (us): 'you saw us'. Under the preceding 'indeed' it reads as a firmly asserted past. The subject and object are packed into the one verb, where English needs three words.
From: A Spy in the Enemy Camp →OpenArabic teaches words like رَأَيْتَنَا through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
