How do you say is the in Arabic?

There isn't a single direct translation of "is the" in Arabic because it depends heavily on the context. Arabic word order differs from English. You need to provide the full sentence to get an accurate translation.

For example:

* "Is the book on the table?" This would translate to something like: هل الكتاب على الطاولة؟ (Hal al-kitāb `ala al-ṭāwila?)

Here:

* هل (hal) means "is" or "are" as a question.

* الكتاب (al-kitāb) means "the book".

* على (`ala) means "on".

* الطاولة (al-ṭāwila) means "the table".

To get a proper translation, please provide the complete sentence you want to translate.
