Homonym: أو (Or)
"أو" is an Arabic conjunction that translates to "or" in English. It is used to present alternatives or choices between two or more options. For example, in a sentence like "هل تريد الشاي أو القهوة؟" (Do you want tea or coffee?), "أو" helps the speaker offer a selection.
In addition to its basic function, "أو" can also indicate a non-exclusive choice, meaning that both options could be valid. For instance, "يمكنك الذهاب إلى الحديقة أو المكتبة" (You can go to the park or the library) suggests that the listener may choose either location or both.
