A new word or phrase from the Hans Wehr dictionary, every Wednesday.
في مبرق الصبح fī m. iṣ-ṣubḥ with the first rays of the morning sun
Root: ب-ر-ق
Page: 67*
Example: “وفي مَبرَقِ الصُّبح، غَدَت إلى الميناءِ دونَ أَنْ تُخبِرَ أَحَداً”
Translation: “with the first rays of the morning sun, she went the port without telling anyone”
Notes:
- For me, this phrase has the same warm, peaceful, and hopeful vibes as تباشير الفجر and ضاحٍ للشمس, which we looked at in previous Wehr Wednesdays posts
- From the same root as مبرق, we get برق—in Wehr Wednesdays #117, we explored the phrase بَرق خُلَّب
