Questions & Answers about الفريقين ممكن يتعادلوا.
It means the two teams.
- فريق = team
- الـ = the
- -ين here marks the dual, so it means two
So الفريقين = the two teams.
If you remove الـ, فريقين would mean two teams.
Because this sentence is in Egyptian Arabic, not formal MSA.
In MSA, a dual subject would usually be الفريقان.
In Egyptian Arabic, the dual is normally used as -ين in everyday speech, so الفريقين is the natural colloquial form.
So:
- الفريقان = more formal / MSA
- الفريقين = normal Egyptian colloquial
That is very normal in Egyptian Arabic.
Even when the subject is two people or things, Egyptian usually uses the plural verb form, not a special dual verb form. So يتعادلوا is the expected colloquial form here.
In other words:
- الفريقين = two teams
- = they tie / they draw
