فرو الجرو كان وسخ، مع هيك المتطوع اطعمه علف.

This is a possession structure called iḍāfa.

• فرو = fur
• الجرو = the puppy

Put together, فرو الجرو literally means fur of the puppy.

A key point: in Arabic, the first noun usually does not take ال in this structure. So you say فرو الجرو, not الفرو الجرو.

Because الجرو is definite (the puppy), the whole phrase is definite too, so the meaning is the puppy’s fur.

Because the thing being described is فرو (fur), and فرو is masculine singular.

So the grammar matches فرو:

• كان = was (masculine singular)
• وسخ = dirty (masculine singular)

If the noun were feminine, then you would expect feminine agreement, such as كانت وسخة.

Here وسخ means dirty or filthy.

In this sentence, it is functioning as an adjective describing the fur. So كان وسخ means was dirty.

Depending on context, وسخ can sound a little stronger than just mildly messy. It often suggests real dirt, grime, or uncleanliness.

مع هيك is a very common Levantine expression meaning:

• even so
• nevertheless
• still
• despite that

So it connects the two parts of the sentence like this:

• the puppy’s fur was dirty
• even so, the volunteer fed him

In more formal or Standard Arabic, you would often see مع ذلك instead.

Yes, on its own, هيك often means like this or this way in Levantine.

But in the fixed expression مع هيك, the whole phrase means even so / despite that. So it is best to learn مع هيك as one chunk rather than translating each word separately every time.

اطعمه is best understood as fed him.

More formally spelled, it would usually be أطعمه. In casual writing, people often leave out the hamza and write اطعمه.

It breaks down like this:

• أطعم = he fed
• ـه = him

So أطعمه = he fed him.

Because Arabic commonly attaches object pronouns directly to the verb.

So instead of having a separate word for him, Arabic often uses a suffix:

• أطعمه = he fed him
• شافه = he saw him
• ساعده = he helped him

This is very normal and very common in both Standard Arabic and dialects.

علف means feed, fodder, or animal feed.

So this is not ordinary human food. It refers to food intended for animals.

With جرو (puppy), the idea is that the volunteer gave the puppy something to eat as animal feed or pet food.

Because the sentence is talking about feed in a general, indefinite sense.

So:

• علف = feed / some feed
• العلف = the feed / the specific feed

Using علف here sounds natural if the speaker is not referring to a specific previously mentioned batch of feed.

Because in Levantine, subject-first word order is very common.

So:

• المتطوع أطعمه علف = the volunteer fed him feed

This sounds natural in everyday speech and writing.

Arabic can also use verb-first order, but Levantine often prefers subject + verb + object, especially in ordinary statements.

It is a bit of a mix.

• مع هيك is very clearly Levantine colloquial.
• المتطوع and especially أطعمه sound more neutral or somewhat formal/written.

So the sentence is understandable, but it mixes a colloquial connector with vocabulary and verb forms that can feel more formal than everyday street speech.

A very everyday Levantine speaker might choose a more colloquial verb than أطعمه, depending on the exact context.

الجرو is a correct word meaning puppy.

A learner should know, though, that everyday speakers sometimes use other expressions too, depending on region and situation, such as simply describing it as a small dog.

So الجرو is correct and clear, but in real conversation you may hear other more casual ways to refer to a puppy.
