Usage notes
- أَلْف (ʾalf) is a noun. When used with a corresponding noun, it governs that noun in the genitive singular, e.g. أَلْفُ لَيْلَةٍ (ʾalfu laylatin, “one thousand nights”). When used as part of larger numbers (2,000, 20,000, etc.), it behaves as a normal masculine noun, e.g. أَلْفَانِ (ʾalfāni, “two thousand”), خَمْسَةُ آلَافٍ (ḵamsatu ʾālāfin, “five thousand”), عِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا (ʿišrūna ʾalfan, “twenty thousand”).
Etymology 3
From the root ء ل ف (ʾ-l-f).
