surah Nahl aya 103 , English translation of the meaning Ayah.
﴿وَلَقَدْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّهُمْ يَقُولُونَ إِنَّمَا يُعَلِّمُهُ بَشَرٌ ۗ لِّسَانُ الَّذِي يُلْحِدُونَ إِلَيْهِ أَعْجَمِيٌّ وَهَٰذَا لِسَانٌ عَرَبِيٌّ مُّبِينٌ﴾
[ النحل: 103]
16:103 And We certainly know that they say, "It is only a human being who teaches the Prophet." The tongue of the one they refer to is foreign, and this Qur'an is [in] a clear Arabic language.
Tafsir Ibn Katheer in EnglishI know very well that the idolaters say: It is a human being who is teaching Muhammad ( peace be upon him ).
They are lying in this claim of theirs.
The language of the person whom they assume is teaching him is non-Arabic, whereas this Qur’ān has been revealed in the clear and highly eloquent Arabic language.
How then do they claim that he received it from a non-Arab?!
Muhammad Taqiud-Din alHilali
And indeed We know that they (polytheists and pagans) say: "It is only a human being who teaches him (Muhammad SAW)." The tongue of the man they refer to is foreign, while this (the Quran) is a clear Arabic tongue.

Abdullah Yusuf Ali - Translation
We know indeed that they say, "It is a man that teaches him." The tongue of him they wickedly point to is notably foreign, while this is Arabic, pure and clear.
Safi-ur-Rahman al-Mubarakpuri
And indeed We know that they (polytheists and pagans) say: "It is only a human being who teaches him." The tongue of the man they refer to is foreign, while this (the Qur'an) is (in) a clear Arabic tongue.
We try our best to translate, keeping in mind the Italian saying: "Traduttore, traditore", which means: "Translation is a betrayal of the original text".

ولقد نعلم أنهم يقولون إنما يعلمه بشر لسان الذي يلحدون إليه أعجمي وهذا لسان عربي مبين
سورة: النحل - آية: ( 103 ) - جزء: ( 14 ) - صفحة: ( 279 )Almuntakhab Fi Tafsir Alquran Alkarim
And We do know what they say, thus: He -Muhammad- is being taught by a man who dictates to him the words he expresses to the people. But the man they refer to is foreign while the Quran is being revealed in plain Arabic literary form
Tafseer Tafheem-ul-Quran by Syed Abu-al-A'la Maududi
(16:103) We know very well what they say about you: "Surely a certain person teaches him. " *107 But the person to whom they allude speaks a foreign tongue, and this (Qur'an) is in plain Arabic.
And We certainly know that they say, "It is only a human meaning
*107) In this connection, traditions mention the names of several persons, one of whom (Jabar), according to the disbelievers of Makkah taught the Holy Prophet; however, one thing particularly noteworthy about all these persons is that they were non-Arab slaves. Whosoever he might be, the fact that he used to recite the Torah and the Gospel and had an acquaintance with the Holy Prophet, gave an opportunity to the disbelievers for spreading this false report that it was the particular slave who was the real author of the Holy Qur'an, but Muhammad (Allah's peace be upon him) presented it as the Word of God. This not only shows that his opponents were very impudent in spreading false accusations against the Holy Prophet but also that, in general, people are not just in judging the worth of their contemporaries. They were ill-treating like this that great personality who has had no parallel in history. Nevertheless, these people who had become blind in their opposition, preferred to attribute the authorship of the matchless Arabic Qur'an to a non-Arab slave who had a smattering of the Torah and the Gospel. Instead of accepting the claim of the Holy Prophet, who was an embodiment of truth, they attributed its authorship to an insignificant foreign slave.
And We certainly know that they say, "It is only a human meaning in Urdu
