Questions & Answers about أبلغنا عن المحتوى المسيء فورا.
How can you tell that أبلغنا means "we reported" rather than "he informed us"?
The verb أبلغ (Form IV) with the suffix ـنا can be pronounced أَبْلَغْنَا ("we reported") or أَبْلَغَنَا ("he informed us"). The contextual clue here is the preposition عن. The phrase أبلغ عن specifically means "to report [a crime, incident, or content]", so the suffix here must be the subject "we".
Why does المحتوى lack a visible genitive case ending even though it follows the preposition عن?
Because المحتوى ends with an alif maqsurah (the letter ى), its case endings are implied rather than written or pronounced. It looks and sounds exactly the same whether it is in the nominative, accusative, or genitive case.
What is the structure behind the adjective المسيء?
It comes from the root س - و - أ (related to badness or evil) and is the active participle of the Form IV verb أساء (to offend or do wrong). Therefore, المسيء literally translates to "the offending" or "the one who offends".
Why is the hamza at the end of المسيء written on the line instead of on the ي?
