بعد خمس دقايق، هوزن البن المطحون.

A rough pronunciation is:

baʿd khamas daʔāyeʔ, ha-wzan el-bonn el-maṭḥūn

A few useful notes:

• بعد = baʿd
• خمس دقايق = khamas daʔāyeʔ
• هوزن starts with ha-, the future marker
• البن is often pronounced el-bonn
• المطحون = el-maṭḥūn

Pronunciation can vary a little by speaker and region.

In Egyptian Arabic, هـ before a verb is a common future marker. It usually means will or going to.

So:

• هوزن = I will weigh
• Compare with بوزن = I weigh / I’m weighing / I usually weigh, depending on context

So the هـ is the part that makes the verb future.

Because بعد literally means after, and with a time expression it often means after X time or X time from now.

So:

• بعد خمس دقايق = after five minutes
• In natural English, that is often translated as in five minutes

This is very normal in Arabic. The idea is: after a span of five minutes has passed, I’ll do it.

This is because of Arabic number-gender rules.

The singular noun is دقيقة, and دقيقة is feminine. With numbers 3–10, Arabic normally uses the form of the number that is the opposite gender of the noun.

So:

• دقيقة is feminine
• therefore the number is خمس, not خمسة

This is one of the classic Arabic patterns learners have to get used to.

دقايق is the normal Egyptian Arabic plural form/spelling in colloquial writing.

• Egyptian Arabic: دقايق
• MSA: دقائق

So this is a good example of how spoken Egyptian differs from Standard Arabic. If you are learning Egyptian, دقايق is exactly what you would expect here.

البن usually refers to coffee as a substance, especially coffee grounds or coffee beans.

That makes it a very natural choice in a sentence about weighing coffee.

By contrast:

• القهوة often means coffee as a drink
• البن is better when talking about the ingredient itself

So البن المطحون is basically the ground coffee.

المطحون literally means the ground or ground.

It comes from the verb طحن, which means to grind.

So:

• بن = coffee
• مطحون = ground

Together, البن المطحون means the ground coffee.

Because in Arabic, adjectives normally come after the noun they describe.

So:

• البن المطحون = literally the coffee the-ground
• natural English: the ground coffee

This is the normal Arabic word order for noun + adjective.

Because Arabic adjectives agree with the noun in definiteness.

So if the noun is definite, the adjective must also be definite:

• البن = the coffee
• المطحون = the ground

That is why you get:

• البن المطحون = the ground coffee

If the noun were indefinite, the adjective would also be indefinite.

Because it agrees with البن, and البن is treated as a masculine singular mass noun.

Even though English speakers may think of grounds as plural, Arabic is not using a plural noun here. It is talking about coffee as a substance.

So the adjective matches البن:

• masculine
• singular
• definite

That gives المطحون.

Yes. You could also say:

هوزن البن المطحون بعد خمس دقايق.

That is also natural.

Putting بعد خمس دقايق at the beginning gives the time frame first, which can sound slightly more focused on when the action will happen. Arabic allows this kind of flexibility.
