قطرة العين وبخاخ الانف في الروشتة.

A helpful way to see it is as four chunks:

• قطرة العين = eye drop / eye-drops
• و = and
• بخاخ الانف = nasal spray
• في الروشتة = in/on the prescription

So the sentence is basically a noun phrase plus another noun phrase, followed by a prepositional phrase.

Because in Arabic, the verb to be is usually not said in the present tense.

So where English says:

• The eye drops and nasal spray are on the prescription

Arabic can simply say:

• قطرة العين وبخاخ الانف في الروشتة

This is completely normal. The is/are idea is understood automatically from context.

Yes. قطرة العين and بخاخ الانف are both examples of the noun + noun structure often called iḍāfa or a construct phrase.

Literally, they are something like:

• قطرة العين = drop of the eye
• بخاخ الانف = spray of the nose

But in natural English, these are just:

• eye drop(s)
• nasal spray

This pattern is very common in Arabic.

Good question. قطرة is literally a drop. But in Arabic, a singular noun is often used for the type of medicine or the product name, not necessarily to count individual drops.

So here قطرة العين can refer to eye drops as a medicine category, even though English often uses the plural.

If you wanted to focus on several actual drops as countable drops, Arabic could use a plural such as قطرات or another expression depending on context. But in medical labeling, the singular is very normal.

Because in this kind of expression, Arabic often uses the definite article with the body part:

• العين = the eye
• الانف / الأنف = the nose

So the literal structure is drop of the eye and spray of the nose.

Also, in an iḍāfa phrase, when the second noun is definite, the whole phrase becomes definite/specific. That is why:

• قطرة العين is a complete unit
• بخاخ الانف is a complete unit

Because in an iḍāfa construction, the first noun usually does not take الـ.

So Arabic says:

• قطرة العين
• not القطرة العين

Likewise:

• بخاخ الانف
• not البخاخ الانف

That is one of the key rules of this structure.

Because ة (taa marbuuTa) often changes how it is pronounced depending on position.

• By itself, قطرة is pronounced roughly like 'atra / 'atrah
• In a construct phrase like قطرة العين, that final ة is pronounced as t

So you hear something like:

• 'atret el-ʿeen

This is very common in Arabic. The written form stays the same, but the pronunciation changes when the word is linked to what follows.

In Arabic, في is a very flexible preposition. Its basic meaning is in, but depending on context it can correspond to English in, on, or sometimes at.

So with في الروشتة, English may prefer:

• on the prescription

But Arabic still naturally uses في.

This kind of mismatch between English prepositions and Arabic prepositions is very common.

Yes. الروشتة is a very common Egyptian Arabic word meaning the prescription.

It is especially common in everyday speech in Egypt. In more formal or pan-Arab usage, you may also see things like:

• الوصفة
• الوصفة الطبية

But in Egyptian daily language, روشتة is extremely natural.

Because ر is a sun letter.

With sun letters, the ل of الـ is not pronounced separately. Instead, it assimilates to the first consonant of the word.

So:

• الروشتة is pronounced roughly er-roshitta
• not al-roshitta

By contrast, in words like العين and الأنف, the ل is still pronounced, because those begin with moon letters, not sun letters.

In more careful standard spelling, yes, it is usually written:

• الأنف

But in everyday typing, texting, and informal writing, many Arabic speakers leave out the hamza and write:

• الانف

Both are understood. This is very common in informal Arabic writing.

A rough pronunciation is:

• bakh-KHAAKH

A few tips:

• The letter خ is the throaty sound heard in German Bach or Scottish loch
• It appears twice here
• The word has a strong, breathy sound because of those خ sounds

So try something like bakh-khaakh, with the kh clearly audible.

A rough Egyptian-style pronunciation would be:

• 'atret el-ʿeen we bakh-khaakh el-anf fi r-roshitta

A few notes:

• قطرة often starts with a glottal stop in Egyptian, so ق is often not pronounced like a hard q
• و is often pronounced we
• الروشتة sounds like r-roshitta because of the sun-letter assimilation
• Exact vowels vary a bit by region and speaker

So if you say something close to 'atret el-ʿeen we bakh-khaakh el-anf fi r-roshitta, you will be very close.

It sounds natural, especially in a medical, pharmacy, or note-like context.

Arabic often allows short, compact sentences like this, especially when the context is obvious. It can sound a bit like:

• a note
• a list item
• a comment about what appears on the prescription

In fuller spoken Egyptian, someone might also say something more explicit, such as adding a word like written or included, but the shorter version you have is still very normal and understandable.
