عنوان المستشفى بعيد عن البيت.

Yes, عنوان can mean both title and address, depending on context.

In this sentence, عنوان المستشفى means the hospital’s address because it is followed by بعيد عن البيت meaning far from the house/home. That makes address/location the natural meaning here, not title.

So:

• عنوان الكتاب = the title of the book
• عنوان المستشفى = the hospital’s address

This is a very common Arabic structure called iḍāfa, often translated as a possessive construction.

Structure:

• عنوان = address
• المستشفى = the hospital

Together:

• عنوان المستشفى = the address of the hospital / the hospital’s address

A key point about this structure:

• the first noun usually does not take ال
• the second noun can be definite, and that makes the whole phrase definite

So:

• عنوان مستشفى = a hospital address
• عنوان المستشفى = the hospital’s address

In Arabic, the present-tense verb to be is usually not spoken in sentences like this.

So English:

• The hospital’s address is far from home

Arabic:

• عنوان المستشفى بعيد عن البيت

This is called a nominal sentence. Arabic often just puts:

• the subject/topic first
• then the description

So literally it is something like:

• The hospital’s address — far from the house

But the natural English translation includes is.

Because بعيد is describing عنوان, and عنوان is masculine singular.

So:

• عنوان = masculine singular
• therefore the predicate/adjective is بعيد

Compare:

• العنوان بعيد = The address is far
• المدرسة بعيدة = The school is far

If the word being described were feminine, you would usually use بعيدة.

Here, عن means from after the adjective بعيد.

So:

• بعيد عن البيت = far from the house/home

This is just the normal pattern:

• بعيد عن = far from

Be careful: عن can mean other things in other contexts, such as about or concerning, but after بعيد it means from.

Examples:

• المدرسة بعيدة عن البيت = The school is far from home
• الشغل بعيد عن هنا = Work is far from here

It can mean either, depending on context.

In Egyptian Arabic, البيت often means:

• the house
• the home
• sometimes simply home

So in a sentence like this, عن البيت will often be understood as from home or from the house.

That is very natural in Arabic. Even when English would often say just home without the, Arabic commonly says البيت.

In Egyptian Arabic, المستشفى is commonly pronounced roughly as:

el-mostašfa
or in simpler English-style spelling: el-mostashfa

A few helpful notes:

• ال is pronounced el- here
• ش sounds like sh
• the final ى is pronounced like a long a, so the end is -fa, not -fi

So:

• المستشفى = el-mostashfa

The final ى is called alif maqṣūra. It looks a bit like ي without dots, but it is pronounced like a long a sound.

So مستشفى ends in:

• writing: ى
• pronunciation: -a

That is why it is pronounced mostashfa, not mostashfi.

This spelling is normal and something learners just get used to over time.

A common Egyptian-style pronunciation would be:

ʿonwān el-mostašfa beʿeed ʿan el-bēt

A simpler learner-friendly version:

• onwaan el-mostashfa be-eed an el-bet

Very rough sound guide:

• عنوان = onwaan
• المستشفى = el-mostashfa
• بعيد = beʿeed
• عن = ʿan
• البيت = el-bet

The letter ع does not exist in English, so learners often approximate it at first. That is normal.

Yes, it is understandable and correct.

But there is a nuance: عنوان المستشفى specifically means the hospital’s address. So the sentence focuses on the address/location listing being far from home.

If you simply want to say The hospital is far from home, a more direct and very natural sentence would be:

المستشفى بعيد عن البيت

So the version with عنوان is fine, but it emphasizes the address rather than just the hospital building itself.

No, with بعيد the normal and correct preposition is عن, not من.

So use:

• بعيد عن البيت = far from home

Not:

• بعيد من البيت

This is something you mainly learn as a fixed pattern:

• بعيد عن
• قريب من

For example:

• المطعم بعيد عن هنا = The restaurant is far from here
• المطعم قريب من هنا = The restaurant is close to here
