Arabic vocabulary
صُّبَاةَ is how you say “young people” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وَقَدْ أَوَيْتُمْ الصُّبَاةَ،
And indeed you sheltered the young people.
الْصُّبَاةَ — the young people. The al- makes it definite — *the* particular group — and as the thing sheltered it takes the object (accusative) ending. That ending is Arabic's flag that this noun is what the verb acted on.
From: Warning Before the Battle of Badr →OpenArabic teaches words like صُّبَاةَ through real bilingual reading with native audio and spaced-repetition practice.
