Translate: "The girl is smart and polite."

This question requires translating "The girl is smart and polite" into Arabic.

Breaking down the English sentence:

• The girl = الفتاة (al-fataat)
• is smart = ذكية (dhakiyya)
• and polite = ومهذبة (wa-muhadhdhaba)

The correct translation is الفتاة ذكية ومهذبة. This is a nominal sentence where الفتاة is the subject and ذكية ومهذبة is a compound predicate made of two adjectives joined by the conjunction و (and). Both adjectives are feminine to agree with the feminine noun الفتاة.

The other options do not match the meaning:

• الفتاة متأخرة وقوية means "The girl is late and strong."
• الفتاة سريعة وجميلة means "The girl is fast and beautiful."
• الفتاة ضعيفة means "The girl is weak" and is incomplete, having only one adjective.

Note that the option contains a minor spelling variation (ذکية ومهنبة), but it remains the only choice that conveys the meaning of "smart and polite."
