وفي المتكلم: ملكة يقتدر بها على التعبير عن المقصود بلفظ فصيح.
Faṣāḥah of a speaker is a settled capacity (malakah) to express intended meanings in sound, fluent language.
Malakah does not mean producing one good sentence by accident. A person who merely quotes a fine passage has not thereby demonstrated a reliable personal ability.
The definition requires both communicating the intended meaning and possessing the linguistic command to phrase it properly across different subjects.
