خضرة 30초 만에
- Khudra refers to greenery and vegetables.
- It comes from the Arabic root for the color green.
- It is a feminine collective noun used daily.
- It symbolizes life, health, and fresh food.
The Arabic word خضرة (khudra) is a foundational term in the Arabic language, primarily functioning as a collective noun that denotes greenery, vegetation, or specifically, vegetables. Rooted in the triliteral root خ-ض-ر (Kh-D-R), which is intrinsically linked to the color green, the word transcends mere chromatic description to encompass the very essence of life, fertility, and sustenance in the arid landscapes of the Middle East. In a practical, everyday context, especially at the A2 level, it refers to the 'greens' or 'vegetables' one finds at a market or uses in a kitchen. Unlike the formal plural خضروات (khadrawāt), خضرة is often used as a mass noun to describe the collective presence of fresh produce.

"اشتريتُ خضرة طازجة من السوق اليوم لإعداد السلطة."
— Translation: I bought fresh greens/vegetables from the market today to prepare the salad.
In classical literature, the term often describes the lushness of a garden or the verdant quality of a landscape. In modern dialects, if you ask for 'khudra' at a grocery store, you are specifically asking for the section containing leafy greens like parsley, cilantro, and mint, though it can broadly cover all vegetables depending on the region. The word evokes a sense of health and natural beauty, often used metaphorically to describe a 'green' (youthful or flourishing) heart or life.
Example of usage in a recipe context:
نقطع الـ خضرة قطعاً صغيرة جداً لعمل التبولة.
Using خضرة correctly requires understanding its role as a collective noun. While خضروات is the technical plural for 'vegetables' (like carrots, potatoes, etc.), خضرة is more conceptual and often refers to the 'greenery' or the 'fresh leafy stuff'.
- As a Grocery Category: When navigating a Middle Eastern market (Souq), look for the sign سوق الخضرة (Souq al-Khudra). This is where you find everything from lettuce to spinach.
- In Cooking: You 'wash the khudra' (غسل الخضرة) or 'chop the khudra' (تقطيع الخضرة).
- Describing Nature: To describe a beautiful park, you might say هذا المكان مليء بالخضرة (This place is full of greenery).
"الأرض بعد المطر تكتسي بالـ خضرة الجميلة."
Grammatically, it is treated as a feminine singular noun in terms of agreement. For example, خضرة طازجة (fresh greenery/vegetables). It is important not to confuse it with the feminine adjective خضراء (khadrā'), which means 'green' (e.g., سيارة خضراء - a green car).
The word خضرة is ubiquitous in daily life. You will encounter it in three primary environments:
- The Marketplace (Souq): Vendors will shout "يا خضرة!" to attract customers, or you'll hear shoppers asking "بكم الخضرة اليوم؟" (How much are the vegetables today?).
- The Kitchen/Home: Mothers and chefs frequently use it when preparing salads or stews. "نظف الخضرة جيداً" (Clean the greens well) is a common command.
- Media and Health: Nutritionists on TV often discuss the benefits of أكل الخضرة (eating greens) for a healthy lifestyle.
Avoid these common pitfalls when using 'خضرة':
- 1. Confusing with the Adjective
- Do not say "هذه التفاحة خضرة" to mean 'This apple is green.' The correct adjective is خضراء (khadrā'). خضرة is the noun (greenery/vegetables).
- 2. Pluralization Errors
- While خضرة is a collective noun, beginners often try to pluralize it as 'khudras'. In formal writing, use خضروات (khadrawāt) for 'vegetables'.
- 3. Gender Agreement
- Remember that خضرة is feminine. Any adjective describing it must also be feminine (e.g., خضرة كثيرة, not كثير).

Tip: Use 'Khudra' for the concept of greenery and 'Khadrawat' for a list of specific vegetables.
