Indefinite noun

وَلِكُلٍّۢ (And for everyone) has no ال and takes tanwīn (the "n" sound at the end), so it means "a" or "some" — not a specific one.

We translate it as "a/an" or leave it general.

Lesson 2 · I'rab & Flexibility
Preposition لِ (for/to)

وَلِكُلٍّۢ (And for everyone) starts with لِ, a small preposition meaning "for" or "to".

We add "for" or "to" before the word.
