In Arabic, you typically express possession by using the construct "X of Y," with "of" often implied. For example, "كتاب أحمد" (Kitab Ahmed) means "Ahmed's book," where "Ahmed" possesses the "book."

In Arabic, possession is expressed by using the construct phrase "possessor + 'sifa' (الصفة) + possessed." For example, to say "the book of Ahmed," you would use "كتاب أحمد" (kitabu Ahmed).

Daily one Word... !!!
Use atleast one word (from the language which you are learning now) in your daily talk (don't worry if the other person knows it or not), but do remember to use in the correct place.
