القطة بتخربش بضوافرها وبتعض اللعبة.

A learner-friendly pronunciation is:

el-ʔoṭṭa betkharbesh bi-dawāferha we-bteʿaḍḍ el-leʿba

A few notes:

• ق in القطة is usually pronounced as a glottal stop ʔ in Cairene Egyptian.
• ع in بتعض is the Arabic ʿ sound.
• Many speakers pronounce اللعبة as el-leʿba, with a doubled l sound.
• You may also hear small vowel differences depending on region and speaker.

In Egyptian Arabic, بـ / بتـ on a verb usually marks the ordinary present tense or habitual action.

So:

• بتخربش = it scratches / it is scratching
• بتعض = it bites / it is biting

Because the subject is feminine singular, the present-tense form begins with بتـ.

Because قطة is a feminine noun. In fact, in everyday Egyptian Arabic, قطة is the normal word for cat, and it can refer to a female cat or just a cat in general, depending on context.

Since the noun is feminine, the verbs agree with it:

• القطة بتخربش
• not القطة بيخربش

If you used a masculine noun like القط, you would normally use بيـ with the verb.

Not here, because Arabic often leaves subject pronouns unstated when the verb already shows them.

So بتخربش already means something like she scratches / it scratches in context.

The sentence includes القطة to name the subject clearly, but after that, the verb itself carries the agreement.

بتخربش means scratches / claws / scrapes.

It already gives the idea of scratching, but بضوافرها adds extra detail:

• بضوافرها = with its claws / with its nails

So the sentence is a bit more explicit and vivid: the cat is scratching with its claws.

Here, بـ means with or by means of.

So:

• بضوافرها = with its claws

This is a very common use of بـ in Arabic: it can show the instrument used to do something.

Because in Arabic, a possessed noun usually does not take الـ.

So:

• ضوافرها = her/its claws
• not الضوافرها

The possessive suffix -ها already makes the noun definite. In other words, its claws is already specific, so الـ is not needed.

The suffix -ها literally means her in terms of grammatical gender, but English often uses it for animals.

Since القطة is grammatically feminine, Arabic uses the feminine possessive suffix:

• ضوافرها = her claws grammatically
• but in natural English here: its claws

So this is a grammar point, not a meaning problem.

Because و meaning and is written attached to the following word in Arabic.

So:

• وبتعض = and it bites

This is completely normal. Arabic often attaches short words like و, بـ, لـ, and الـ directly to neighboring words.

اللعبة means the toy because of الـ.

If you want a toy, you would usually just say:

• لعبة

Arabic does not have a separate word for a/an in the way English does.

So:

• اللعبة = the toy
• لعبة = a toy / toy

Because ل is a sun letter. In Arabic, when الـ comes before a sun letter, the l of the article blends into the first consonant of the noun.

So:

• written: اللعبة
• pronounced: el-leʿba

You still write الـ, but in speech you hear a doubled l sound.

Yes. القطة بتخربش بضوافرها وبتعض اللعبة is a very natural Egyptian Arabic sentence.

The structure is:

• القطة = the cat
• بتخربش بضوافرها = scratches with its claws
• وبتعض اللعبة = and bites the toy

In spoken Egyptian, starting with the subject like this is very common.
