The meaning of بِـ

In the beginning, you do not need to memorize every grammar term. Just notice this: بِـ connects to a word after it and gives the meaning of with, by, or through.

بِـ+اسم=
بِسْمِ

Later, you will learn that بِـ is from the family of ḥurūf al-jarr, and the word after it often takes a lower ending sound. For now, just recognize the pattern.
