رجلي بتوجعني.

A common Egyptian pronunciation is rigli bitwigaʿni.

A rough breakdown:

• رِجلي = rigli
• بتوجعني = bitwigaʿni

Notes:

• ج in Egyptian Arabic is usually a hard g sound, like in go
• ع is the Arabic letter ʿayn; if you cannot say it yet, that is normal at first

So the whole sentence is roughly: RIG-li bit-WI-gaʿ-ni.

رجلي means my leg.

It is made of:

• رِجل = leg (and sometimes foot, depending on context)
• ـي = my

So:

• رِجل → leg
• رِجلي → my leg

Yes, sometimes.

In everyday Egyptian Arabic, رِجل can be used a bit broadly and may refer to:

• leg
• foot

Usually the context tells you which one is meant. So رجلي بتوجعني could mean my leg hurts or my foot hurts, depending on the situation.

بتوجعني literally means is hurting me.

You can think of it like this:

• بتوجع = it hurts / it is hurting
• ـني = me

So:

• بتوجعني = it hurts me

That is why the whole sentence is very literally:

• My leg is hurting me

Even though in natural English we usually just say:

• My leg hurts

The ending ـني means me.

Arabic often expresses pain this way:

• X hurts me

So instead of just saying my leg hurts, Egyptian Arabic commonly says:

• my leg hurts me

That is why the ـني is there.

Because رِجل is grammatically feminine in Arabic.

In Egyptian Arabic, the verb agrees with the noun, so:

• feminine singular subject → بتـ...
• masculine singular subject → often بيـ...

Since رِجل is feminine, you get:

• رجلي بتوجعني

If the noun were masculine, you would normally expect بيوجعني instead.

That is simply a very normal Arabic way to talk about pain.

Egyptian Arabic often uses this pattern:

• body part + hurts me

Examples:

• راسي بتوجعني = my head hurts
• بطني بتوجعني = my stomach hurts
• رجلي بتوجعني = my leg hurts

So the Arabic structure is slightly different from English, even though the meaning is the same.

No. They are different words.

• رِجلي = rigli = my leg
• راجل = ragil / rāgil = man
• راجلي = my man / my husband

Because short vowels are usually not written in Arabic script, learners often confuse these. In this sentence, the verb also helps you:

• بتوجعني is feminine, which fits رِجل (leg), not راجل (man)

Because Arabic does not use a separate present-tense is/am/are the way English does in this kind of sentence.

The verb بتوجعني already carries the meaning of:

• hurts
• is hurting me

So the sentence is complete as it is:

• رجلي بتوجعني

No extra word for is is needed.

Yes, very easily. This is a very common pattern.

Examples:

• راسي بتوجعني = my head hurts
• ودني بتوجعني = my ear hurts
• بطني بتوجعني = my stomach hurts
• دراعي بيوجعني = my arm hurts

So once you know this pattern, you can reuse it with many body parts.

To one person, you could say:

• رجلك بتوجعك؟

Breakdown:

• رجلك = your leg
• بتوجعك = hurts you

So literally:

• Your leg hurts you?

Natural English:

• Does your leg hurt?
