How to say “your selves” in Arabic, with pronunciation and an example from OpenArabic texts.
فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ اِحْتَالُوا لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ
Abdullah said, "Be cunning for yourselves."
لِأَنْفُسِكُمْ — for your selves. Preposition li- ('for') fused to the reflexive 'yourselves', one word for a whole phrase. The li- assigns the benefit of the scheming to the listeners themselves, marking them as the ones to act on their own behalf.
