I'm working on a Yemeni text, where a mother is recalling how her daughter died in a bomb blast. She is narrating the events of the day and says the following:
رجّة انصفاق باب البلكونة هي ما أوقظني من شرودي ، ثم بدأ الدخان يملأء الغرفة
Does it mean the sound/jolt of the balcony door splitting into two is what brought her back to reality? I'm finding different meanings for the word انصفاق
Thank you!
