The characters and their pronunciation The following consonants have more or less similar equivalents in English and therefore should not present any difficulties. "Hamza like f’aJin arm, like ['i] in inn, like [‘00] in ooze (nitial occlusive element, glottal stop) be 5a, like (67 in big t 2 Ta like (47 in tea th 8 Tha’ like /th] in three it Jim like /g] in gentle kh & Kha’ like fch] in Scottish English, loch de Stal like fd] in door dk = 3 ~~ Dhal like [th] in the > Rr like /r] in Scottish English, room z 3) dy like /z] in zero 5s Sin like /s/ in sun sh Shin like s] in sure f a Fa like (7 in fog k 3S kaf like /&] in key 1 J Lim like (7) in long, live or luck m @ Mim like {m] in monkey oO hua like fn] in noon hoo8 Ha’ like fh] in hot w 9 Waw ‘like fw] in wall Ss a like {y) in year Arabic has the following long vowels: ‘lif like fa] in far ¢ wa like fee] in deer 3 Waw like foof inschool sR = 2 Lesson 1 AL The short vowels a (hut, pad), i (If) and u (look) as well as the diphthongs ay (write) and aw (like in how, but short) are also the same as in English. Cf. Gr 1.2.2. The following letters are typical Arabic consonants which do not have equivalents in English and can only be learned by regular practicing with native speakers: hoot Ma like [hj articulated with friction * & *dyn like [a] articulated in the pharynx with friction gh & Ghayn like the Parisian /r] in renaissance se Sad like /s) articulated with emphasis dy Dad like /d] articulated with emphasis 1 + fw like /t] articulated with emphasis 7 + w@ like voiced /th] articulated with emphasis q & of like [k] articulated with emphasis The last five of these consonants are the so-called emphatic consonants. They normally affect the pronunciation of adjacent consonants, vowels and diphthongs. Their correct pronunciation and the modifications in the adjacent sounds need special practicing, 4.42 The order of the Arabic consonants according to the place where they are articulated: bilabial: 5, mw labiodental: f interdental: dh, th dental: atdt prepalatal: 1, 1,7,5,35,85hJ,¥ postpalatal: —k velar: gh. qth pharyngal: *, Jaryngal: Vh 1.2. Writing 1.2.1. Arabic is written from right to left. The letters differ in size, but there are no capitals. Each of them has a basic form, but modifications in their shapes occur according to their positions in words. A number of letters share the same shape and are only distinguished by diacritic dots: Examples: 5 Nan, 5 Ta',4 Tha’, . Ba', Ya’ The letters | > 3) j sare only connected with the respective preceding letter, whereas all the others,are connected with both sides. The shapes of Arabic letters are generally similar both in script and printed form. However, a few differences occur (see Lesson 3). Lesson 1 3 This book plans for the student to learn how to read and write the Arabic characters at the same time. For that reason we suggest beginning the writing exercises with the characters in their printed shape and to proceed step by step to script. In this way the prototypes of the Arabic characters impress themselves on the student’s mind both when being read and written. Introducing script already in Lesson | might result in severe confusion. Nevertheless the way the characters are actually used in script must be taken into account at as early a time as possible, ic, as soon as the student has a fairly good command of the Arabic characters. This can be achieved by the students reading print type and writing script from that time onwards. The peculiarities of script are put together in the form of tables at the end of Lesson 3. These tables include a number of words previously introduced to the student which are contrasted with each other in print type and script as examples. It is recommended that the teacher uses Arabic script from Lesson 4 onwards when he/she writes examples on the blackboard, and to practice it with the students as well. 1.2.2, Auxiliary Signs (oS pf ince Arabic expresses only long vowels by special characters, a system of auxiliary signs was developed to distinguish whether or not a consonant is followed by a short vowel. But normally these signs do not appear in printed or written texts, since the reader who is acquainted with the morphology of Arabic will be able to read the words correctly without such signs. The auxiliary signs are mainly used in the Koran, poetry and children’s books. Texts which contain such signs are called vocalized texts, whereas those which do not have them are referred to as unvocalized. In this book these signs are only used when they are essential for proper reading. The signs may be divided into two main groups: 1. Short vowels (for which Arabic has no characters) Fatha = a short oblique stroke (~ ) written on top of the letter 4 ba,5 fa, wa denoting that the consonant is followed by a short a. (Fatha followed by Alif= long @: % ma) Kasra = a short oblique stroke ( _ ) written below the consonant a bid Ti, mi denoting that the consonant is followed by a short i. (Kasra followed by Ya'= long i: j=5° kabir) amma = a sign similar in shape to a small Waw ( ” ) written on top of the letter Le made, 9S aur, «haar denoting that the consonant is followed by a short u. (Damma followed by Waw = long a: 0 s5 Nan) 4 Lesson 1 2. Other signs Sukiin = asmall circle (" )on top of the letter tahta, 2:25 nahnu, ys min denoting that the consonant is not followed by any vowel. Shadda = a small Sin (“ ) written on top of the letter denoting that the consonant is doubled, which is pronounced in a somewhat prolonged way then. Fatha and Damma are written on top of Shadda, whereas Kasra may be placed either below Shadda or below the doubled letter: SIC shubbik, ple [plat mutaltim, @ tagaddum Madda = a sign on top of Alif (1 ) denoting a long 'a. OW alana, OV) al-qur'an Diphthongs: Fatha followed by a 4 with Sukin denotes the diphthong aw, whereas Fatha followed by a .s with Sukin denotes the diphthong ay: Clawh, 83 fowga, % bayt, HS kayfa 1.2.3. Hamza + and Ta! marbita’ Hamza, which has the shape of a small “Ayn, normally needs a character to “carry” it. The characters which carry Hamza are { (Alif), $ (Waw) and ts (Ya"), and they are referred to as chairs of Hamza. At the beginning of a word the chair of Hamza is always Alif: EH tanta, ‘umm, 2) ‘in (see the rules for writing Hamza in Lesson 24.) The 7a' marbija 3 is a special form of the 7a’. It only occurs when final, and denotes feminines. It is pronounced as a short a when the word occurs isolated. However, if the word is the 1* term of a genitive construction, it turns to ¢ (cf. Lesson 6). 1.2.4, Allah (God) is mostly written in the form of «lll (in calligraphy: 408) , The Shadda above the Lam shows that the Lam is doubled here; the small Alif above the Shadda means that a long d has to be pronounced after it. This small Alifis also put in the word rahman (the Merciful) and others, ie. a long @ has to be pronounced after it here as well. Thus the following image is produced in a calligraphy, representing the text “In the name of God, the Merciful, the Compassionate”: Such writings designed artistically are only readable with some experience and are predominantly in use in editions of the Koran as well as in mosques. Lesson 1 5 Here are some more uncommented examples, which you can decipher together with the teacher: soe) chs SE 1.2.5. The alphabet in its traditional order name ofthe | transliteration | isolated final medial initial — | letter position position position position _| Alif a y U , mw | 6 |o |e | = fo | Ta’ t 2 eo ee 3 | Tha’ th o ae a 3 Jim j t e ~ > aa z ee eee eed Kha’ kh é & ~ > Dal d > re ao > Dhal dh 3 ne a 3 Ra’ r 2 - > 4 | z 5 cs + 5 s v o ~ ~ sh oO a ec a 5 a eo ~~ ~ q wed * = ~ t b be a + z & & be sb e t t a 5 gh co & a + tf a a a 4 q 3 & a a k 3 hk sm Ss 1 d oe + 4 m rc ae “ n o oe + 3 h ° “ + 2 a 3 + > 2 r ¢ ea = 2 6 Lesson 1 GA3 1. The first letter of the alphabet is actually Hamza, but since Alif is the chair of Hamza in most cases, it appears in its place as the fisst letter. In the grammar part of this book Alifis written as | when Hamza is vocalized with Fatha, if it is not a Hamzat al-was! (cf. Lesson 2, p. 38). 2, The transliteration system inthis book ignores Hamza in the initial position. That isto say, <1 # » or U are transliterated as umm, anta and in, and not as ‘umm, ‘anta and ‘in 3. Ya" (LS) without diacritical dots in the final position is always preceded by Fatha and is Pronounced as the long vowel d.: cg! ila, gle “ald, (t+ mata. Final ¥a’ (5) with diacrtical dots is usually preceded by Kasra: 3 ff, .gtS kiaabr. However, many texts do not seem to be consistent in regard to the use of diacritical dots with os when it oceurs in the final position. Exercises In the exercises of Lessons 1, 2 and 3 (which will take about 3 weeks) the basics of the Arabic pronunciation and writing are taught. The principle is hearing - speaking - reading - writing. Since it takes a certain time - according to our experience - until the student is acquainted with reading and writing the Arabic script, we begin with exercises for hearing and speaking, which are based ona vocabulary of about 80 words denoting things and persons in the room. Using the direct method, we start speaking straight away, although the student does not know yet how the words which are used are written. At the same time the student memorizes the correct stress of the words without being required to know the rules, Since the first exercises are to be read at home by the students after having been discussed in the lessons, we have added the transliteration of the words despite some doubts which exist from the methodical point of view. The arrangement of the exercises in the form of three columns enables the student to check his way of reading at home with the aid of the transliteration. Nevertheless, we advise the student from the beginning to uncover only the Arabic column. The texts of the exercises of Lessons 1, 2 and 3 may be used as writing exercises later on. First, however, the student has to do the writing exercises of Lesson 1 (Ex8), which are composed according to the principle of similarity of the letters, and are to give him/her a feeling for a certain technique of writing. All words used in the exercises of Lesson 1 can be found in the vocabulary of Lesson 2. Lesson 1 7 Exi The teacher should read the following words aloud, and the student should repeat them after him/her. The teacher will correct the reading and comment on the pronunciation when necessary, and will make sure that the students understand the meanings by pointing to the things he/she refers to. The students are also advised to test their knowledge by covering the transliteration one time and the English equivalents another, and finally both the transliteration and the English equivalents, as-saldmu “alaykum ana canta anti wa ana wa-anta ana wa-anti anta wa-ana anti wa-ana anta wa-anti anti wa-anta huwa hiya huowa wachiya hiya wa-huwa ana wa-anta wa-huwa ana wa-anti wa-hiya Peace be with / upon you (one of the numerous Arabic forms of greeting) I (ihe a at the end of fis pronounced as a short a) you (m.) you (f) and (it precedes the following word without a gap between them) Tand you Tand you (f) you and I you (f) and I you and you (f) you (f) and you he she he and she she and he I and you and he Tand you (f) and she Se ptt uf eo ae 8 Lesson 1 Ex2 Sec instructions for Ex1! ana muallim, Tam a teacher. ana muallima, Tam a teacher (f). anta alib.

Rs Who is there? and points at an object or a person while doing so. The student should answer ‘ua and adds the word that is accordingly by using the phrase ... “A or ... asked for.

The teacher explains how to do Ex8, which is to be done as homework, and Jays special emphasis on those letters which cannot be linked to the following letter. Ex8 (Homework) The following exercise is planned to develop the students’ writing skills; it should not impart new vocabulary items to them. The examples given for each group of letters should be considered as an orientation for proper writing. It is very important that the teacher gives general hints with respect to writing in order to avoid the students using incorrect forms of writing.

If the noun preceded by the article begins with one of the following consonants OS Bebe wer peypejegcdcocaee the J of the article is assimilated, and therefore not pronounced, and the respective above-mentioned consonant is doubled, i.e. it takes the Shadda: assimilated not assimilated the friend | gettell | ap-sadiq | the house al-bayt the man EE | ar-rajut_| the room al-ghurfa the sun viel | asheshams | the moon al-qamar @A2 The letters the J of the article is assimilated to are called Anna 4, > “sun letters”, the others are called 44 a5 3’, > “moon letters”, 1.3. The Hamza of the article f is only pronounced as a glottal stop when the respective word preceded by the article introduces a sentence or an independent part of a sentence. Otherwise Hamza is replaced by Wasla 1, which denotes that the | is no longer pronounced as a glottal stop. Lesson2 15 A Hamza that is pronounced is called Hamzat al-gay’, A Hamza that is not pronounced is called Hamzat al-wasl or simply Wagla. . ieee the teach tae He is the teacher.

All final vowels followed by the article Jf of the next word are pronounced as short vowels in order to allow smooth linkage between the words: fr al-bayt> fil-bayt 23% es elt +3 (in the house) ‘ala + af-tawila > ‘alat-fawila UglT le < wylaf + Je (on the table) 1.3.2. If a word ends with Sukan which is followed by the article Uf of the next word, the final Sukin usually turns to. Kasra, which fulfills the function of an auxiliary vowel: USIT AX < LE “Take the book!" The preposition y+ , however, takes Fatha as an auxiliary vowel: Ti “from/out of the house” Some pronouns and verbal suffixes which contain the vowel u take Damma as their auxiliary vowel. 3 Wasla is not printed in the following Arabic texts of this book; instead, Alif | without Wasla takes its place. 2. Gender (ll) . . There are two genders in Arabic: masculine (+) and feminine (£354). Words ending with 8 -a (Ta’ marbija) are neatly always feminine, whereas words which do not end with 7a” marbiga are mostly masculine. a4 Ta’ marbita is normally not pronounced as ¢, but as a short a when the word occurs isolated or at the end of a clause or a sentence (see also Lesson 4, Gr. 3. and Lesson 6, Gr, 2.2.1.1.), 41A5 A number of words denoting feminines do not end with Ta’ marbata: a) words for persons which are feminine by nature: A mother, eof sister, < daughter b) the names of most countries and of all cities 16 Lesson 2 ©) designations of parts of the bady which exist in pairs: - hand, ¢* eye, ¢ 6) Some words are always used as feminines: (.25f land, ~~ sun 2) Some words are used as either masculine or feminine: gS knife, 3 y-* market, elacr sky Feminine nouns which are not easily identifiable as such are marked in this book by a (¢) placed behind them when mentioned forthe first time. 3. The Equational Sentence (iies9)! iLazuhy The simple equational sentence in Arabic language consists of two parts: the subject (4224f) and the predicate (au, It denotes a general present tense or an action taking place regularly and has no copula (i.e. derivatives of the verb to be). 3.1, Its subject may be a noun (pl), a personal pronoun (m2) or a demonstrative pronoun (Lt —. Its predicate may be an adjective (4,2), a noun, an adverb (3,4) or a prepositional phrase. (All these parts of speech can be found in the basic vocabulary.) The following structures occur frequently: Sentence structure 1 = The subject is a definite noun (3-4 2!) ora pronoun and appears at the beginning of the sentence. al) Noun = adjective The house is big. eee a2) Noun - (indef.) noun The man is a teacher, vl pi a3) Noun = adverb ‘The teacher is here. wtih batlf - prepositional phrase The teacher is in the room. 5S) B let bi) Personal pronoun ~ adjective Hei(it) is big. LS 3s b2) Personal pronoun - (inde) noun He is a teacher. pe > = (def) noun, He is the teacher. applnall b3) Personal pronoun - adverb He is here. wh - prepositional phrase He is in the room. cl) Demonstrative pronoun __- adjective This (one) is big. Pigia 2) Demonstrative pronoun —_- (indef.) noun This (one) is a teacher. welt (is 3) Demonstrative pronoun ___- adverb This (one) is here. ch (a = prepositional phrase This (one) is in the room. 4.46 A demonstrative followed by a definite noun may be ambiguous: (Hic Gd may be translated as: This teacher / This i the teacher. However, ifambiguity is tobe avoided, te personal pronoun mus be inetd: This isthe teacher. This isthe teacher H ‘The demonstrative pronouns |. and oi have a small ! above the -* when the words are fully vocalized, which is to denote the long vowel d: hidhd, hidhiht. However, in modem texts this | does not appear in the typeface. Sentence structure 2 = The subject is an indefinite noun (-S) and therefore appears at the end of the sentence. Adverb noun Here is a teacher. apples Ua Prepositional phrase = noun In the room there is a teacher. (There is a teacher in the room.) 3.2. In the ‘yes/no’ question the word order of the declarative sentence is retained, but the sentence begins with the interrogative particle J , or rarely f, 18 Lesson 2 Is he here? Sa GAT Ua yh fa Is this big? G05 Vita FOS (ia Se In case of alternative questions the alternative particle ¢/ must be used: ernteee Is this big or small? thio A aS Wa ‘fo The interrogatives + for “what” and <* for “who” act as subjects in wh-questions: What is this? Who is this? What is here / there? Who is here / there? The interrogative pronoun must be followed by a personal pronoun if the predicate is a noun or an adjective. Who is a/(the) teacher? tele (ly Ste 4.47 In sentences which are introduced by a verb normally the interrogative'5\+ is used instead of s. 3.3, Agreement in gender 33.1. There is agreement in gender between the subject and the adjectival predicate, feminine subject = masculine subject = feminine form of the masculine form of the adjectival predicate adjectival predicate eR eer » of SET ar eal bl) . Itis big. nS cl) BS go This one is big. eyed Ni 3.3.2. Agreement in gender also exists between a pronominal subject and a nominal predicate: He is a teacher. She is a teacher. Lesson2 19 3.3.3. The question whether | codis <8 or .,# should be chosen as a predicate in a wh-question introduced by L« or gp is determined by the gender of the persons or objects referred to: What is this? Shia Who is this? Sia bs Who is he? Sate when a masculine is asked about, What is this? Who is this? Who is she? when a feminine is asked about. That is why the personal pronoun which has to be inserted into the wh- question must be _* when the predicate of the latter is masculine, and .,# when its predicate is feminine: ‘What is the name?/ What is his/her name? What is the sun? Who is a/(the) teacher? Ke SB Who is al/(the) teacher? Seba SN) Ct Ge GA8 Agreement in gender is also to be observed between the verb which introduces a sentence and the following noun: The masculine form ‘Los! and the feminine form ‘irs may be used for indicating existence, i.e, “there is”: The teacher is in the room. ‘The cupboard is in the room. Here is a teacher. Here is a cupboard. In interrogative sentences introduced by !3t+ the masculine ‘What is in the room? Glossaries are provided in each lesson from here forward. They contain all the words not yet known from the preceding lessons which occur in the texts, the exercises and some encountered in the grammar, Polysemous words are mostly 20 = Lesson 2 only given their respective current meaning at issue in the text. The vocabulary items are listed alphabetically by root, i.e. Rj is invariably regarded as the first letter relevant in the order (cf. Lesson 4 about this). In the interest of clearness Fatha has only been inserted partially, Identifying the root of every word may present a difficulty to the student at the beginning. With increasing practice, however, she/he will quickly acquire the skill of finding every word in the glossary she/he looks for. This skill is nevertheless required so that the student will be able to use HANS WEHR’s DICTIONARY OF MODERN WRITTEN ARABIC edited by J. Milton Cowan, which is most frequently used and which is arranged according to the root- system. Here, another general hint is given, which will facilitate the student’s ability to find many words. ¢ (Mim) as the first letter of a word is rarely Rj, but is mostly a prefix (+ « * « +), The word 0%*2 is not entered under Mim in the glossary nor in the dictionary, but under Kid’, the word (as under Sad, and the word la under “Ayn.

Number (28h) Arabic has three numbers as far as nouns, pronouns and verbs are concerned : singular (2 2h, dual (254) and plural (eam.

The personal pronoun |___ se pl. he Sb they (m.) she e they (f) on you (m.) edt you (m.) wat you (f) sat you (f) ‘a 1 Uf we tod AL The auxiliary vowel for g> and pl is Dumma-u (f. Lesson 2, Gr 1.32). As to the order ofthe personal pronouns above see Lesson 5, Gr 1.3. 1.2. The noun and the adjective The Arabic noun has two types of plurals: the external, i the internal, i.e. the sound plural (lui ecard) and the broken plural (j.-S3) as). The external ot sound plural is formed by suffixes being added. The internal or broken plural is formed by the structure of the vowels of the singular form being altered and/or by prefixes, infixes or suffixes being added to the singular form. 1.2.1. The sound plural has two forms: The suffix 3% (dua) for the masculine (gle SX: gam) and the suffix | - (a) for the feminine plural (pl 2+ glo) are added to the singular masculine form.

The broken plural has many patterns, of which we mention JU /i‘al and Stat afal here (see also Lesson 4). Sg. pl. rajul 5 rijal tawil eb tiwal galam ob aglam GA2 Since there are no specific rules regarding the plural forms, the student must lean each plural together with the singular, This book provides you with the most common plural forms of the nouns and of the adjectives. In the glossaries of this book the singular and the plural form are separated by the eter ¢ for ca (= plural) If several plurals are present they ae divided by @ comma, A in front of a word will indicate when only the plural form of this word is used. 2. The Adjective (dial) 2.1. The form: each adjective has a masculine and a feminine singular form: a ae if a sound or broken and a feminine plural form: disb obs yb oe Determining which form has to be used depends on the word which the adjective belongs to. 2.2, The function: the adjective has two functions, an attributive and a predicative one (as to the latter cf. Lesson 2, Gr 3.1.). predicative The house is big. The room is new. Lesson3 31 attributive the big house thenewroom a big house Se OY anew room Kage GA3 The final Dumma in Ci (al-baytu), & a) (al-ghurfatu), SS) (al-kabIru) and bsgsonSl (al Jadidaty) and the *(Tanw7) will be explained in detail in Lesson 4, Gr 3. 2.3, There is agreement in number and gender between the noun and the adjective in their singular forms (cf. Lesson 2, Gr 3.3.1.-3.3.2.): in number The house is big. singular nS cif the big house singular 1S in gender ; Thehouseisbig, 2 the big house m. The room is new. 3 the new room f If the adjective has an attributive function, there is also agreement in state (Le. definite or no article) the big house definite the new room definite a big house indefinite 4S 8S anew room indefinite Kyad BE and in case (see Lesson 4, Gr 3.1. 3.2.). 2.4. If the noun and the adjective are in the plural, the agreement between them depends on whether the noun denotes a person or not. If it denotes a person, agreement in number and gender applies; if the adjective is used in an attributive function, there is also agreement in state and case. 32 Lesson 3 predicative: The teachers are diligent. Oph 0 gle The teachers (f) are diligent. toligied abet The men are tall. email attributive: the diligent teachers B phys o plait the diligent teachers (f) tote uleif the tall men Bibs Oe tall men OGb Ie If the noun denotes a non-person, the adjective takes the feminine singular form. both when fulfilling an attributive and when fulfilling a predicative ction. Strictly speaking, there is only agreement when the adjective is used as an attribute, i.e. agreement in state and case. Nevertheless we also refer to it as agreement in gender and number, because the plural of words denoting non- persons is treated as a feminine singular. predicative: The tables are big. ee The pens are new. as De attributive: the big tables 55 LY bf the new pens Ryall @OGSF 2.5.

Lesson 4 eet st po pllt 1. Radical, Root, Pattern 1.1, Most Arabic words can be reduced to a root, which, as a rule, consists of three consonants. They are called Radicals. We refer to them as Ry, Rz and R3. This triliteral root expresses a certain conceptual content. Thus, e.g. the meaning “to write” is inherent in the root K-T-B (~- ~ — 43 ), the meaning “to go” in the root DH-H-B (~~ « — 3), and the meaning “to drink” in the root SH-R-B (~- 5 - W. This conceptual content is specified by short and long vowels between the consonants and by prefixes and suffixes regarding the part of speech (verb, noun, adjective) as well as regarding the grammatical category (tense, mood, number, case, etc.). One can say by way of simplification that the root consonants (Radicals) fulfill a semantic function and the vowels a grammatical function in the Arabic word. Examples: KaTaBa és) = he wrote /has written KaTiB (As) = writing; writer, author KiTaB (tS) = book KuTuB (5) = books maKTaB (os = written; letter maKTaBa «Sy = library, bookshop 1.2, The Arab grammarians use patterns, which they represent by +} for Ri (1" Radical), & for Ry (2% Radical) and O for R3 (3 Radical) in order to describe the numerous word forms systematically. Fa', ‘Ain and Lam fulfill the function of variable quantities in the patterns, for which theoretically any consonant can be substituted.

The majority of nouns has the broken plural, There are hardly any rules according to which the appropriate plural form can be derived with certainty from the singular form. Therefore, the student has to learn (at least) two word forms for every noun, namely singular and plural form. GAA Regularities in the forms of the plural only occur in some groups of verbal nouns which have the sound plural. Appropriate hints are given in the respective lessons. 2.2, There are numerous forms of the broken plural.

Three cases are characterized in Arabic by means of the three short vowels: -u= nominative (g°3%) W-), «i= genitive Calf | LZ), a= accusative (ail Uo), ‘The signs Damma, Kasra and Fatha represent themselves in vocalized texts. n the new teacher al-mu‘allimu I-jadidu Tate g. | of the new teacher Aol pleat al-miallimi l-jadidi a, | the new teacher “apd SF | al-mu“allima t-jadida 2 J 46 Lesson 4 aor: n._ | the new teacher (£) Supt CLF | al-mutallimatu lejadidatu g. _ | of the new teacher (f) al-mu‘allimati l-jadidati a, _| the new teacher (f) Sate CLT | al-mu“allimata I-jadidata 3.2. An -n (Nin) is pronounced after the case endings -u, -i, -a as a characteristic of indefiniteness. This process is called Numation (cys). Consequently, the endings -un, -in, -an are formed, Nunation is expressed in vocalized texts by the doubling of the respective sign that represents the vowel: * or un, -=-in, “=-an Indefinite’ nouns in the accusative case which do not end with 3 (Ta’ marbizta) terminate in Alif, which, however, does not express a sound quality. n anew teacher Ws al: muallimun jadidun g of a new teacher ee lets muallimin jadidin a anew teacher fag Uke mu‘alliman jadidan n. | anew teacher (f) Kays EEL | musallimatun jadidatun g. | ofanewteacher (f) muallimatin jadidatin a | anew teacher ¢) mu‘allimatan jadidatan 443 Certain Arabic words have only two case endings because of their word structure, some even only one, @Ad4 A considerable number of words, among them many broken plurals, do not terminate in a Gof ZU35 ; of about this subject: nunation, even in case of being indefinite, e.g. Ls Lesson 7, Gr 3. 3.3. The declensional endings of the sound plural of masc. words are: 0°, -aina = nominative and ¢,.:-ina = genitive and accusative, of feminine words: ‘3 ~atu(n) = nominative and (1 -ati(n) = genitive and accusative. definite indefinite n. anbelf 3 sles (al-)muallimina & a (al-)mu‘allimina a.

The broken plural has the same declensional endings as the singular.

Arabic texts are generally not vocalized, as has already been noted in Lesson 1. Nor are the case endings indicated by signs expressing vowels for the same reason, There is no universally valid rule for the pronunciation of these endings, i.e. whether they are pronounced or not. Whereas they can be fully heard in recitations, they are mostly omitted in colloquial language. We recommend that the teacher and the student adapt their pronunciation of Arabic to the one used on the radio and to pronounce the case endings (and the other inflections containing a short vowel), except in the last word before a pause and at the end of a contextual unit (sentence, clause) for the period of training. The syntactical connections become clearer by the case endings being pronounced. Mado pity a ble ad als op 48 Lesson 4 4. Stress 4.1. Only the last three syllables of a word can be stressed. If the Nunation is pronounced, it is included in the count. 4.2. The last syllable that contains a long vowel is stressed: kia ki-ta-bun jedid —_ja-di-dun ma-khd-zin ma-khd-zi-nu however, the vocalic final sound of the word is never stressed: hun ‘ur-Si (but: kuur-si-yun) 4.3. If the last three syllables do not contain a long vowel, the second to last syllable is stressed if it is a closed syllable (sequence of sounds: consonant - short vowel - consonant): mu-“al-lim mu-far-jim, and the same applies if the word consists of only two syllables: an-ta ra-jul Otherwise the third to last syllable is stressed, regardless of its structure: mu-‘al-li-ma muj-fa-hi-dun 4.4, The demand accepted in modern Arabic language that the stress may not advance beyond the last syllable but two requires the stress to be shifted if the number of syllables changes, because the nunation is pronounced or suffixes are added. tali-ba {@-li-ba-tun mu-‘al-li-ma mou-“al-/i-ma-tun ku-tu-bun ku-tu-bu-ni (our books) mu-‘al-li-mun —— mu-‘al-li-mu-nd (our teacher) fa-li-ba {a--ba-tun {a-li-ba-tu-nd (our student (f.)) mu-‘al-li-ma mv-‘al-/i-ma-tun mwu-‘al-li-ma-tu-nd (our teacher (f)) In general, the students do not find it difficult to stress the Arabic words in the correct way. They have sufficient opportunity to impress the stress upon their memories by hearing and reading the texts and by means of the numerous exercises. This is why we refrained from putting stress marks in this textbook. 5. Prepositions (xl! 45>) All prepositions are construed with the genitive. Both ges wots Abit fo se “with / by means of” and or “for” are written together with the following word. Additionally, the Alifof the article is omitted after J: Ji) « « pli Lesson4 49 GAS As is the case in many other languages, the prepositions frequently serve to express the case governed by the verb in Arabic as well. They form an inseparable unit together with the verb in such cases and need to be leamed together with it. Thus, e.g. ¢3 means “to get up”, . ¢4 means “to carry out, to undertake” and () “that”, after which the noun is in the accusative: The friend has written that Veet are Miipartied hs ecived in Retin “at a hey bho OF T have heard that the delegation Eee ae arrived yesterday. 5 igh ‘The word order invariably is subject - verb - (object) in the objective clause itself which is introduced by O! . Consequently, a verb ‘ never occurs immediately after of, subordinate clause main clause soy 4 We of Sta | verb subject ‘objective clause subject, verb wl ey | wd of ew oe verb | subject objective clause (subject+) __verb 2.47 Asa matter of course, the function of an objective clause can also be fulfilled by an equational sentence. The normal word order does not change. The subject ‘ollows © in the accusative, as is the case in the verbal sentence. The predicate remains in the nominative: : “Thave heard that Muhammad is ill” ap he Of eae 60 Lesson $ 3, The Nisba ending (Andy 34. The sovcalled Nisha ending is ££ &, (in transcription -1,f -iyya, with Nunation -iyyun or -iyyatun); it is added to nouns and various verbal nouns (442%), but rarely to numbers, prepositions and pronouns, and forms (relative) adjectives and nouns. The Nisba ending is the most productive word forming suffix in Arabic, and it is comparable to the English suffixes -al, -en a.o, which form adjectives and to the suffixes -ian, -ese which form nouns, The endings 5 and {, are omitted when the Nisha is added. Lebanese; a Lebanese Lebanon Syrian; a Syrian ise > We | Syria political; politician cote policy gold(en) ia > Gas gold A8 Details about certain changes of sounds which oocur when the Nisba is added especially to ‘words which terminate in rather rare endings can be seen from a more voluminous grammar (e.g. the “Grammar of the Arabic Language” by W. Wright). A noun followed by an adjective with the Nisha is often equivalent in English to constructions of the type noun + noun: school-book, textbook trade relations Has LE > 5 G5 + ote 3.2. The rules of agreement given in Lessons 2 and 3 for the equational sentence (subject - adjectival predicate) and for the attributive construction (noun - adjectival attributive adjunct) also apply to the relative adjective. 3.3. Nouns terminating in a Nisba ending which denote persons and relative adjectives which are related as an attributive adjunct to nouns denoting persons mostly have the sound plural: 4.49 Some Nisha nouns or relative adjectives have a (collective) endingless plural: Arab (adj.), Arab(s) 25e / ¢ wt / Arab students 52 Sb They have to be leamed as vocabulary items just in the same way as some descriptions of occupations need to be leamed which terminate inthe plural ending 8, or other Nisba nouns which have a broken plural, eg.

Definiteness (Summary) A noun is definite if it is construed with © the article: # a subsequent genitive: © an affixed pronoun: 4. The adverb (4° There is no specific form for the adverb in Arabic.

Your friend Peter [Lesson uf Land ot) 1. The Imperfect Tense (¢ all 1.1, The imperfect tense is the second of the two simple verb forms in Arabic in addition to the perfect tense (Lesson 5). Jt almost always indicates an action or state taking place in the present ( pl ah or future tense (|S!) and may express a habitual, progressive, future or stative meaning. GAL The imperfect tense can sometimes be employed to express actions having taken place in the past, as is the case in some subordinate clauses. This is connected with the fact that the imperfect tense is actually neutral as to tense and merely describes the verbal action in its course. 1.2. It is characteristic of the imperfect tense that R, is vowelless and that Ry is followed by a so-called imperfect stem vowel, which can be a (Fatha) as well as i (Kasra) or u (Damma). The vowel « ora suffix follows R3. The persons are expressed by prefixes. 4.3. The conjugation: imperfect/indicative pl. es (es) che bw ogi Gah “i (el) fA) a todo Ais are togo oy at. to ask isa, therefore B to read (2™ p. sg. f.) a —CLrr—sS 82 Lesson7 likewise in oA to drink o to hear ee Itis win to write ey and iin oe to know ae to hold Az Verbs with 4 as Rt drop this 4 in the imperfect tense: bes > be (gry > G22. Cf Lesson 11 regarding this subject. das ‘The imperfect tense of all verbs will be placed in brackets after the perfect tense in the vocabulary list of each lesson. It is strongly recommended to the student to learn both forms, as there are no rules according to which the imperfect stem vowel could be derived. Verbs in which Rz is followed by / in the perfect tense have the imperfect stem vowel a with very few exceptions. 1.4, The particle O's or its abridged form <# (as a prefix) can be placed in front of the imperfect tense, so that its future aspect is emphasized: He will definitely write to you. 7 2 He is sure to write to you. LOL 1.5. The particle 48 + imperfect tense meaning “perhaps” also denotes a future action or event as a possibility: Perhaps, he will write. et 2. Demonstrative Pronouns (3)\4 1 slaw!) 2.1, The demonstrative pronoun that indicates what is near with respect to place or time is: a pl. 7 Sg. (33 m. this, these Ve “ ole f. Lesson7 83 The demonstrative pronoun that indicates what is farther or more distant with respect to place or time is: ph SE. an U3 m. that, those edi . abe @A4 The first syllable in Iie cols «sp» and LU3 , the second in J y/ , contains the long vowel 4, which is not expressed by Alif, as is otherwise usual. However, the initial w in 248 4! is short. 2.2. The demonstrative pronoun is placed in front of the noun which is defined by the article: this man (BN ia that man this girl that girl these men those men these girls those girls GAS Note that the fem. sing, form of the demonstrative pronoun precedes the plural forms of words which denote non-human beings: aI) ede 6 yoo) LU, 2.3. The demonstrative pronoun follows the noun which is defined by an affixed pronoun: this friend of mine Vib iio these books of his aia US these friends of ours oN ge UG Let 2.4. If the demonstrative pronoun refers to the 1" term of an Jdafa, it follows the genitive construction as well: 84 Lesson 7 this book of the teacher Wi lath Gus those friends of my teacher df poled S6cF 2.5. If it refers to the 2 term of the /dafa, it precedes it, i.e. its position is between the 1" and the 2" term: the book of this student glib ie use the friend of that girl A6 However, it follows the 2 term of the genitive construction ifthe latter is a noun which is defined by an affixed pronoun: It is consequently possible that a construction of this kind may be ambiguous, as the demonstrative pronoun may refer to the 1” term (this book of my friend) as well as to the 2" term of the /dafa (if both terms of the latter have the same gender). (Cf. above 2.3.) 2.6. The demonstrative pronouns do not only fulfill a deictic function, as described in 2.2. - 2.5., but they are also used as nouns. They can fulfill the function of the subject in an equational sentence, and of the subject or the object in a verbal sentence: This is a teacher. These have drunk the wine. That (is what) Muhammad has done. Agreement in gender and number between subject and predicate has to be observed here in the equational sentence; if the predicate is defined by the article, one should insert the independent pronoun as well (cf. Lesson 2, A7): feminine predicate _masculine predicate ae touli 23 avis Dyalall bse Lesson7 85 Combinations including ¢L!3 occur quite often in the lexical area: JU “therefore”, LIS An) “after that”, 13 (| 3 “before that”, tLI3 a “yet”, “nevertheless” a. 0. 3. Diptotes (Saal Ge ¢ sll 3.1. We have got to know the declension of nouns in Lesson 4 which have nunation and three cases, when indefinite. They are called triptotes. Nouns which do not have the nunation and which only have two cases, when indefinite, are called diptotes. We compare triptotes and diptotes with each other in the following table: diptotes/triptotes (definite) diptotes (indefinite) triptotes i aca ist Se 1S as bs tas 585 Accordingly, the characteristic of diptotes consists in the fact that the final ‘Nan is missing and that the genitive and accusative endings are the same if the diptotes are not defined by the article or otherwise. G7 Particularly the plural forms of words containing several consonants (fawi*il, fa°dlil, fa°alil, {fu'ald’ a, 0,) and adjectives of the form afal, fem, fa‘la' (many adjectives of colour have this structure; of. the glossary ofthis lesson and Lesson 25) are diptotes. Diptotes are indicated by a final amma in the glossaries contained in the lessons and at the end of the book: yay! « Utef. 3.2, Alll place names which end in a consonant and do not have the definite article (except those ending in © at) are also diptotes (sll « oon Oly). 3.3.

The following applies regarding the differentiation between ©! and O!, which also means “that”: Verbs which state something introduce the objective clause by means of OI (the subject in the shape ofan accusative noun or of an affixed pronoun is positioned after the verb followed by a verb in the perfect or imperfect tense). ‘Verbs which express a hope, fear, wish or demand introduce the objective clause by means of Of (+ following subjunctive). Only Df Si “after” and Df 32 “since” take the perfeet tense, See in detail Lesson 20, Gr 3. 1.2.2. The negative particles ¢/ and Y, and furthermore J , take the jussive. Actions having taken place in the past are negated by means of (J “not” (cf. below, 3.2.); the negative imperative is formed by ‘Y “not” + jussive (cf. below, 3.1.).

The Dual (gill The Arabic language has a third number in addition to the singular and the plural: the dual. It is used when two things or persons are denoted. The dual is formed by means of suffixes the characteristic morpheme of which is the long vowel d, which is expanded by 7 in some cases. 1.1, The dual of the noun Suffix: OL in the nominative, :,- in the genitive and accusative: pl. . a | o,f tealf alc & a plea ie dual B GAL The genitive and the accusative of the dual cannot be distinguished from the same cases of the sound masculine plural in the unvocalized typeface. Ss. oe. n alas 5 ais =. z 110 Lesson 9 The ending 0 is dropped if the dual is in the construct state, e.g. if it functions as the 1* term’of an idafa or if an affixed pronoun has been added. The same applies to the sound plural. the two companions of the delegation sigh Wil with the two companions of the delegation her two escorts with her two escorts Az The affixed pronoun of the 1" p. sg. if added to a dual form, is (5 : my two friends (slate; (cf. lesson 6, Gr 2.2.1.1.) There is agreement in case, state, gender and number between a noun in the dual and an adjectival attributive adjunct: Two attributive adjuncts in the singular can also be employed instead of one attributive adjunct in the dual.

Cardinal Numerals (424) s14h) The Arabic numerals are written in the following way: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 ye 4 A Vv 4 7 t y y ‘ 9 A1 Themumerals for 2 and 3 fer in writing from the printed signs given above, namely € for2 and Y for 3. Compound numbers which are expressed by numerals are written from the left to the right as in English: 1994 \444. 1.1. The numerals are: . a sift \ aely wahid x oul ithndin % oye thalatha £ iat arba‘a ° dant khamsa 4 &, sitta y Beye sabla A agit thamaniya 4 dae tis‘a Ve 3 ke Sashara According to grammatical rules the numerals 3 - 10 are regarded as diptotes in abstract counting. Consequently the correct pronunciation would be wahidun, ithnani, thalathatu, arba‘atu, khamsatu, etc. In general, however, the endings are dropped in oral usage. Accordingly we pronounce: wahid, ithnan, thalatha, arba‘a, etc. 1.2. The numerals 1 and 2 are adjectives. They were treated in Lesson 9. By contrast 3 -10 are nouns. Each numeral from 1-10 has a masculine and a feminine form. The numerals are used in abstract counting as shown, i.e. | and 2 in their masculine, 3 -10 in their feminine forms. 1.3. The rule of so-called polarity applies to 3 -10 in connection with a noun as the counted item, i.e., a masculine word is preceded by the feminine form of the numeral, a feminine word by the masculine form of the numeral. The numeral and the noun are the 1“and the 2 term of a genitive construction. The noun is indefinite and takes the genitive plural. 124 Lesson 10 in connection with a feminine noun lin connection with a masculine noun! pis EM r Salad | Sty 8 pi aif t Seek | Sle, taf Se aren ps i Splat | Sie v Spd | bry tae A 4 \e Splat | Sty He This rule about polarity also applies when the noun does not immediately follow the numeral or is not mentioned at all. three men Jue, 8 three of the men Sap gp BW three of them eg BE Thave seen three. oe Gt 14.

The noun takes the accusative singular. in connection with a feminine noun, in connection with a masculine noun ia AS Sy vy al \Y \r ve Lesson 10 125 @A2_ The rule of polarity in gender which applies to the numerals 3-10 also applies to the numerals 13-19 in so. far as the masculine numeral denoting the unit is connected with the feminine numeral denoting ten and, vice versa, the feminine numeral denoting the unit with the masculine numeral denoting ten. Accordingly polarity in gender exists within the two terms of these compound numerals. On the other hand, there is agreement in the numerals 11 and 12: a masculine numeral denoting the unit is connected with a masculine numeral denoting ten, and a feminine numeral denoting the unit with a feminine numeral denoting ten. 8 A3 The dual inflection already treated occ ve of the m Bee pce Sh iy Ess | in the genitive and | went there with twelve girls. I saw twelve men there. @A4 The numeral 10 is mase. 75 , fem. 726, whereas it is 4 and 55-2 when it functions as a component of the compound numerals 11-19. 1.5. The numerals 20 - 99 are followed by the noun in the accusative singular as well. The numerals 20, 30, 40, up to 90 which denote tens have the form of the sound masculine plural (n. O5- , g., a. Cs). The units compounded with them follow the rules stated under 1.3. and 1.4, i.e. there is agreement in gender between the numerals 1 and 2 which denote units and the counted item, polarity in gender between the numerals 3-9 which denote units and the counted item. The word order is different from modern English; units come before tens.

The whole hundreds (Le. 100, 200, 300 ...), the numerals thousand, million, billion when functioning as the 1" term of a genitive construction are construed with the following noun in the genitive singular. The numerals 300, 400,... 900, each of which is constructed out of the respective units and the word for hundred, Ls or Us (pronounced mia[tun]), as a genitive construction, are written together. Since the rule about polarity of the units applies here as well, these take the masculine form when preceding (Jl, and the feminine form when preceding aS O26 Gite. The plural of the three last-named words is ude «cl tele YT. The plural of BL is ole, which, however, is only used in the meaning of “hundreds”. 44 is in the singular when the numerals 300 - 900 are formed, although the numerals 3 - 9 are otherwise construed with the plural: Views potal Vow Yous You Tees Yes oo fee qe 1.7. The order in compound numerals is thousand + hundred + unit + ten, which are connected by a copulative 4 respectively.

[Lesson i po Sol ow yl! 1. The Perfect Tense of Verbs with y and cs (dek4)' Jud4f Up to now, in dealing with the perfect and the imperfect tense, we have only encountered the so-called strong verbs (reall JUS! ic. verbs in which Ry, Ro and Ry are full consonants. There are certain peculiarities in the conjugation of the so-called defective or weak verbs. The verbs in which the “weak” consonants ‘3 (aw), «s (Ya or ¢ (Hamza) occur as Ry, Ry or Ry are to be understood by this. The perfect tense of these verbs with 4 or cs is treated on the basis of model verbs in this lesson, the conjugational paradigms of which are to be applied analogously to verbs of the same structure, AL The weak verbs are often designated by Latin terms in the grammar or textbooks of Arabic: Ri = y orcs = verba primae (radicalis) 9 et ‘or (5 = verba mediae (radicalis) 9 et Ry = y ors = vorba tertie (radicalis) 5 ets 1.1. The perfect tense of verbs with Ry = 3 ors is formed in the same way as that of the strong verbs. model verb (Les “to arrive”: ete. (CE Appendix tables 1 and 15) 1.2. Ry has the long vowel a in the perfect tense in verbs in which Ry = 3 or é if vowel follows Rs. Examples with the model verbs: 1¢S “to getup” (<¢53 = Jay Ro=y LEG) LAGS) BUN MEY “to sell” (< Qs = Jed) R= Weta) CEUQA) ELLA Tite “to fear” (<3 + = Js'sy Rp= 5 , YS Ga LEGA) GE US A2 Consequently, in these forms it is not clear from the outward appearance whether itis a verb Ry = ora verb Ry = w os & rors ji ies (eh roves sh igs & oes & _S * me (=) os Gah ules (a) (Appendix: tables 1, 23, 24, 25) 2. Word Order: 0! and the Subject of the Sentence The normal word order in the sentence is verb - subject. If the subject is to be emphasized in the main clause, it is placed in front of the verb, and the particle &} is set in front of the subject. The word order consequently is: 51 + subject + verb + (object) AAS Likewise, first the subject, then the verb comes after the conjunction 2,5 “but”. Moreover, this word order occurs without employing the particle 5 if the main clause is introduced by a conjunction (y «L3), ‘The word order subject - verb - without a particle in anteposition - is especially common in headlines in newspapers.

The Imperfect Tense of Verbs with 5 or 1.1. The imperfect tense of verbs with R, = 4 is formed with R, being omitted. Examples with the model verb (|(24 “to arrive”: (fey has the imperfect vowel i) Oshai ~ chal és obs (hy he Gy je eo GAL Verbs with Ry =cs are very rare and occur nearly exclusively in the so-called derived forms (cf. Lesson 14, Gr 1.). Their imperfect tense is formed in the same way as itis with the strong verbs, ie. Ry is not omitted, (Appendix: Tables 2, 17) 1.2. Verbs with Rz = 4 ors have the long vowel d in the imperfect tense if they belong to group I, and the long vowel 7 if they belong to group II. Verbs belonging to group III have the long vowel 2 , when a vowel follows R3. Examples with the model verbs: 145 “to got up” (< (8 = sy a= MA HW Ww UEY “to sell” (< as = ) Ree rate) tel (4) Wt “to fear” (< Ge = sy R=3 BW yA Gwe GIG) G2 Verbs with Ro= seg.

The Use of 01 The verb OLS (imperfect tense 5,53) is a temporal auxiliary verb, which localizes the action (state, event) in a certain tense. 1.1. GUS in the equational sentence LS’ is the copula in the equational sentence and as such is comparable to the English auxiliary verb “tobe”. The nominal predicate (OLS _>+) is in the accusative after O'S”. The perfect tense of OI localizes the predicate of the equational sentence in the past tense. The student was diligent. Muhammad was our teacher. O'S is negated by i+ jussive, accordingly “50 ‘The student was not diligent.

In general, affirmative equational sentences which are regarded as being in the present tense do not have a copula (cf.

OIS in the verbal sentence | As is the case in the equational sentence, SIS also serves to temporalize the predicate in the verbal sentence. OLS + perfect tense (143) and WS + imperfect tense Cai are compound forms, which are comparable to certain compound tenses in English. The folloning forms are compounded with OS: @ gas he had done = Past perfect as an expression of anteriority or of a completed action in the past which took place prior to ene another action also in the past (2) (fai OS he did, he used to do = Imperfect as an expression of a constant, repeated or AA PS customary action which took place in the past 8) fab OS he will have done = Future perfect as an expression of an action which is to be expected with certainty to happen in the future Accordingly, five forms are available to describe the temporal relations: the two simple forms (J-5 “he has done”, “he did” and {J&45 “he does”, “he will do” and the three compound forms which have just been mentioned. &. b 55 ! 31 is to be understood in these as a temporal determinator, whereas Us and ‘ais have their original value which is neutral with regard to tense.

If 5 precedes the imperfect tense (’|44 13), it indicates a possibility that the verbal action is taking place or will take place. (See about the negation of these verb forms in Lesson 26, Gr 1.1.1.7. and 1.1.1.8.) 164 Lesson 13 GA3 Verbs with similar fanctions are referred to in Arabic as OIS cl pel “sisters of kana”.

The Forms of the Verb (JUS4) 13's : 11, I and IV 1.1. The base form of the Arabic verb (jas / ‘jai2), as we have got to know it up to now, can be extended by gemination of consonants, prolongation of vowels, prefixation ot infixation, or a combination of two of the possibilities that have been given. The extensions of the base form, like the base form itself, are called Forms. There are 15 Forms, only 10 of which, however, are in common use. They are referred to by Roman numerals in European grammar books and dictionari base Form = Form I, derived Forms = Form II, I, ... X. Theoretically all Forms can be formed out of every verb. Practically speaking, however, a verb rarcly occurs in more than 4 or 5 Forms, and in fact it often occurs only in its basic Form or a derived Form. AL Originally changes with regard to meaning correspond to the formal extensions of the base form as well. Thus e.g,, an intensifying, causative and denominative meaning is stated for Form II, a reflexive meaning for Form VII. As, however, every individual verb is lexically fixed and the original “value of the Form” is often not identifiable any more, we refrain from stating the basic meanings of the individual Forms at the moment. Cf. the summary in Lesson 19 with respect to this subject. 1.2. Form IT Characteristic: doubling of Rp Perfect tense: ps Imperfect tense: Jaa a “2 Imperative: a &A2 The quadriliteral verb has the same vocalization of the imperfect form, Pattern: Example: “to translate” Table 35 in the Appendix supplies information about all forms of the quadriliteral verb. 1.3, Form II Characteristic: prolongation of the vowel that follows Ry Perfect tense: eu Imperfect tense: Aetit Imperative: Lesson 14 179 1.4. Form IV Characteristic: prefix a- |, vowellessness of Ry Perfect tense: Imperfect tense: Imperative: #A3 The prefixed Hamza of Form IV is a Hamzat al-gat’. 1.5. Forms I], II, IV have the same succession of vowels in the imperfect forms: u- (aa/-) ~ i. We group them together for that reason, Here is the summary once more: imperative imperfect tense perfect tense Form II ag fs Form I eu Form IV caf (Appendix: Tables 5, 6, 9, 14) GA4 The imperfect tense of Forms II and IV are neither distinguishable from each other nor from the basic Form without auxiliary signs. 2. The Attributive Relative Clause (ddsally Wally Not only a word or a group of words, but also a whole clause can be added to a noun as an attributive adjunct, The relative clause is the form of the attributive clause that occurs most frequently. 2.1. There are two types of attributive relative clauses: a) relative clauses which are employed as attributive adjuncts related to definite nouns (Le), b) relative clauses which are employed as attributive adjuncts related to indefinite nouns (4,2). 2.2. If the relative clause is the modifier of a definite noun, it is preceded by a relative pronoun. GAS There is the same agreement in state between anoun and an attributive clause as there is between a noun and an_ adjectival atributive adjunct. If the antecedent is definite, the adjective is defined by the articte Jf, the relative attributive clause by the so-called relative pronoun. The term relative pronoun is therefore not quite correct, because it expresses, above all, the definiteness of the attributive clause in addition to characterizing gender and number. The relative pronoun does not, however, indicate the syntactic function (of the modified antecedent) in the relative clause, 180 Lesson 14 2.2.1, The relative pronouns (3 2's) ef) are: eal after a masc. noun in the singular J after a fem, noun in the singular and after plurals which denote non-persons at ob after a masc. noun in the plural which denotes persons gist. gouF after a fom. noun in the plural which denotes persons ae oul after a masc. dual olf after a fem. dual AG Whereas the four frst-mentioned forms are neutral as to case, the two dual forms are infested When following a noun in the genitive or accusative, they are iy AAT Note the different spelling: with one J: (e/g) / ge; with wo J: OWI / gtyUi / oi) / ots GAB ‘The article UJ! is the first component of the relative pronoun, therefore the initial Hamza of (Gl cg ete. is Hamzat al-wasl. 22.2. ogi « that” in the nominative. The noun which is modified by the relative clause is the subject of this clause at the same time. etc. are equivalent to the English relative pronouns “who, which, the student who came from Iraq the student (f.) who came from Iraq the students who came from Iraq Na Ge Lyi & the students (f.) who came from Traq Shall Ge Gee Du Dalat the two students who came from Iraq Sigh Ge od octal the two students (f.) who came from Iraq oti G. ae od oul A literal translation of the Arabic examples makes the difference in word order in the Arabic and in the English relative clause clear to us. In Arabic: normal word order of the verbal sentence, accordingly “the student who he has come”, in English: inverted word order, consequently “the student who has come”. Lesson 14 181 2.2.3. sl, (62) etc. are also employed in sentences when the subject is not identical with the antecedent. In English, the relative pronoun is in the genitive or objective (as an indirect or direct object or the complement of a preposition) in these cases. In Arabic the affixed pronoun in the relative clause makes the connection with the antecedent. the friend whom I have met the (girl) friend whom I have met the friends whom I have met the two friends whom I have met the friend (to) whom I have written a letter the (girl)friend (to) whom I have written a letter the friend whose doctor I have met the (girl)friend whose doctor I have met the friends whose doctor I have met the two (girl)friends whose doctor Ihave met 42 (a with whom I have been to the cosh 3 fee, a ih be waif the friends with whom I have been with the two friends from whom I have received the books the (gir!)friend at whose house I was 49 Of course forms which are defined in a different way than by the article could also be ‘employed in place of 3-21, so) ,2i-Lall etc, which were chosen as an example, ¢.g.: Gite Le Gute ao, 2.3. If the relative clause is the modifier of an indefinite noun (44,2), no relative pronoun is used. 182 Lesson 14 GA10 ‘There is agreement in state here, as well. The antecedent is indefinite, consequently the attributive clause does not get a sign of definition either. Word order and the affixed pronoun are just as they are in the syndetic relative clause: Thave read a piece of news in the en rae ale newspaper al-Ahrdm, in which it says: ...

Forms I, IIL, IV of the Verbs with 9 or The derived forms of the verbs Ry, Ry, Rs with 5 or s have the same characteristics as the derived forms of the strong verbs. Apparent peculiarities only arise out of the fact that » or cs appear as consonants in some forms and as vowels in others. The latter are contracted in some jussive and imperative forms, and therefore do not appear in the typeface any more, as we have already got to know with regard to Form I of these so-called defective verbs. CU (Lb sey and i are employed as model verbs in the derived forms as well. They serve the purpose of representing the respective pattem, without actually being really in use in each individual form. Thus e.g., el only occurs in Forms I - IV and X, but not in Forms V - IX. 1.1. Forms II, IIT, IV of verbs Ry = 3 orcs are formed like those of the strong verbs. The verbs Ry = cs are not listed separately. 1.1.1, Form If Characteristic: doubling of Rr Perfect tense: bey Imperfect tense: hey Imperative: be 1.1.2. Form III Characteristic: prolongation of the vowel that follows Ry Perfect tense: Imperfect tense: hel Imperative: chet 1.1.3. Form IV Characteristic: prefix a- f, vowellessness of Ry Perfect tense: ses Imperfect tense: es Imperative: bef Lesson 15 195 GAL It is not possible to differentiate the imperfect tense of Forms I and IV without auxiliary signs. (See Appendix: Tables 5, 6, 9, 16, 17.) 1.2. Forms II and III of verbs Ry = orcs are formed like those of the strong verbs, because ands are regarded as full consonants here. Rj is not vowelless in Form IV. The verbs Ry = or cs have the same forms as in Form IV. Therefore we give only one model verb here. 1.2.1. Form II Characteristic: doubling of Rz ee Perfect tense: a (pronounced: gawwama) Imperfect tense: e (pronounced: yugawwimu) oe Imperative: e (pronounced: gawwim) 3 1.2.2.

Imperfect tense indicative: Imperfect tense jussive: Imperative: oe a2 Most imperfect tenses of Form I (R2 = <5) and IV (Ro = 9 or (6) cannot be differentiated without auxiliary signs. The same is the case regarding Form and If of the verbs Rz = 4. (See Appendix: Tables 5, 6, 9, 19, 21.) 1.3. The derived forms of verbs R3 = 4 or .¢ are the same, therefore we give only one model verb for the individual forms. 196 Lesson 15 1.3.1, Form IT Characteristic: doubling of Ra Perfect tense: Imperfect tense indicative: Imperfect tense jussive: E Imperative: 3 1,3,2, Form Ill Characteristic: prolongation of the vowel that follows Ry Perfect tense: SH Imperfect tense indicative: oe Imperfect tense jussive: oN Imperative: & 1.3.3, Form IV Characteristic: prefix a- |, vowellessness of Ry Perfect tense: Imperfect tense indicative: % Imperfect tense jussive: Imperative: Peel Forms II, Il and IV of the verbs Rj = 3 or .s are conjugated like Form I of the model verb 2. @A3 The imperfect tense of Forms Il and IV can neither be differentiated from each other nor from Form (R3 = cs in some forms also R3 = 3) without auxiliary signs. (Appendix: Tables 5, 6, 9, 26) 2, The Nominal Relative Clause 2.1. We have become familiar with the type of relative clause that is employed as an attributive adjunct related to a noun in Lesson 14, which we refer to as the attributive relative clause, In addition to this, there is another type of relative clause known as the nominal relative clause which is also utilized in the English language. It is introduced here by the determinative relative pronoun “who, which”: Lesson 15 197 honor to whom honor is due (to the one honor is due to), or, when related to indefinite quantities, by the generalizing relative pronoun “who” or “what”: Who (everyone who) visits us will be welcome. What (that which) he did was not right. A conditional sense is frequently discernable in this context: He who seeks shall find. (If someone seeks, he shall find.) Idleness rusts the mind, (If someone is idle, his mind will rust.) 2.2. These relative clauses are introduced in Arabic by the determinative relative pronot ill pl. pill (related to persons, seldom to non-persons) he... who / the one ... who; they ... who / the ones ... who; that... which / the one ... which; by the generalizing relative pronoun: (related to persons) (he) who / who(ever); someone who; and the generalizing relative pronoun: 4 (related to non-persons) what; that ... which / the one ... which; something. 2.3. Such sentences can fulfill the syntactic function of: a) a subject What happened to me yesterday will not happen to me again. The one who delivered the speech is my friend. b) an object We know who is holding the negotiations. wsdl 6 Po oe a ¢) a predicate or This is (that which)/what happened to me. Jie Ue d) the 2” term of a genitive construction or He told us all he knew. ets SS e) be construed in subordination to a preposition, He has told us about the things he has seen Beh its CS OSS there ((it.: about that which) The price of it is 10 pounds including postage (lit.: with that which is in that of). 198 Lesson 15 2.4. A construction in which ;# and \@ are modified by a post-positive ¢,¢ + noun is typical for Arabic. We know (that which)/what is in them (in sk W oti their souls) of doubts = we know which PS ot peel BUG R doubts they entertain. ‘You came with the ones who (were) with Renee ees ca you of the men = you came with the men DEN Ge See ras Ste who were with you. that which they have of apparatuses = the Tigiel ip gales apparatuses they have.

Forms V and VI of the Verb Forms V_ and VI have the same basic structure as Forms II and II]. The prefix ta- —iis added as a distinguishing characteristic. The succession of vowels in the perfect and imperfect tense is - a - throughout. Ll, Vv perfect tense (as imperfect tense aired The imperative of Forms V and VI is used with only a few verbs, and therefore is not considered here.

Anteposition of the object ‘The normal word order in MSA is verb - subject - object. The anteposition of the subject, i.e. the word order subject - verb - object is possible. Appropriate, constructions were already mentioned when Of in the subordinate clause and {| in the principal clause were addressed. ‘Another construction frequently used both in MSA and, more importantly, in oral usage of the Arabic renders the anteposition of any object possible. The object is placed at the beginning of the sentence in the nominative. The corresponding affixed pronoun is inserted in the place which has become vacant in the sentence due to this action. This anteposition makes a person or thing stand out in contrast to the general context; at the same time it makes a complex sentence clearer and enables it to be comprehended more quickly. The succession of two nouns (subject and object) is avoided. There is a pause after the part of the sentence which is placed in front, Do ooo ae The prime minister welcomes < .s/S) eal ei oo the Arab guests (or passive: the aan Arab guests are welcomed ..). 5 a pe CES ia al The politicians support the < .aldi Gs @ ¥ fied trade relations with this wets country. get lly lS ia ga toed cual T accomplished my tasks +; immediately. a How much I love my mother!

In such constructions the masculine form of the verb is always used, even if, the subject is feminine: Many opinions were expressed. YS ob Tye GE The passive voice of the verb -¢, Form II, is x*. It takes the masculine form, although 1] is regarded as feminine, Lesson 19 251 1.4.3, About the construction of doubly transitive verbs: If sentences containing two direct objects are tured into passive constructions, the 1" object tums into the subject, the 2" object remains as such in the accusative: Example: with» ¢ ALEITV “to give (to sb. sth.)” active voice Thave given an apparatus to Muhammad.

The passive imperfect tense, when occurring in conjunction with the negation Y, is often used in the form of an attributive relative clause, which can be replaced by an attributive adjective in English: an event which is not forgotten = an unforgettable event es ys 2. Some Characteristic Features of the Derived Forms Originally the derived Forms are variants of Form I which serve to express aspects as well as the character of the respective verb. A functional-semantic description of the Forms is possible; it provides, however, little benefit for language practice. The complete stock of verbs can be found in the dictionary. The student does not need to coin certain Forms anew himself. Knowing the basic meaning of a certain Form can, however, enable him to understand a verb form he is not yet familiar with without resorting to a dictionary. Basically it must be stated here that many verbs do not fit into a general semantic system of the individual Forms. Therefore it is not enough simply to memorize only the root or Form I of a verb. Every verb must be learned according to its respective Form. 252 Lesson 19 @ A2 This also means that one does not, for example, try to impress the verbs upon one's mind by sayings 2 = to. gather; e& Form TV =to agree, @& Form VII= to come together, to meet, but cone must immediately store the forms g#! and @a=>! in one's memory. Knowing the Forms is necessary to ensure their Correct technical use. In the following we give some characteristic features of the derived Forms, which have been provided, above all, to help the student with translating: 2.1. Form I {ad - intensifying 5251 |to break (trans.) causative SES 11 |to break (sth.) into pieces, to smash denominative @S51 [to rerum (in this function it is eo II | to cause to return, to send back productive in modern Arabic) | £25 [oil 2H u |tooil 4sk,e {industry ee 11 | to industrialize Nearly all its verbs are transitive. Form Il is used most frequently after Form I. In unvocalized texts it might be confused with: Form I in the perfect tense Forms I, IV in the imperfect tense Form V in the form Jai, 2.2. Form Ii Yeu - Jou Form denoting an aim to write (attempted) effect on a person or thing to exchange letters, to correspond (with so.) to replace, to exchange (sth. for) to exchange (with so., sth.) to get up to get up and turn against so. or object to sth. = to resist Many verbs do not show this value of the Form. Lesson 19 253 Nearly all verbs are transitive. Form III might be confused with the active participle of Form I; its imperfect tense which contains the prefix might also be confused with Form VI jes, 2.3. Form IV “gi cal It is causative, denominative, and occurs in various other meanings, which are hard to summarize. Most verbs of this Form are transitive. It might be confused with: Form I in the imperfect tense and the imperative Form I] in the imperfect tense Form V in the form xis the elative (ef, Lesson 25). 2.4, Form V to break (sth.) into pieces, to smash It forms intransitives to break (intrans.) in relation to Form II to petrify, to turn into stone (sth.) as well as some denominatives to turn to stone, to petrify to alter (sth.) to alter (intrans.) to adopt as son (:»!) It is mostly intransitive, Because of the prefixed J , it might be confused with the imperfect tense 3"'p, f. and 2™ p. m. sg, of Forms I, I and IV. 2.5. Form VI Sous ~ els to exchange (with so. sth.) Tt mostly has a reciprocal isu meaning in relation to Form III Je to exchange (sth.) Transitive and intransitive verbs occur in this Form. It is rarely encountered. Because of the prefixed 5, it might be confused with some imperfect forms of Form III. 254 Lesson 19 2.6.

It is intransitive throughout. It might at most be confused with verbs Ry = 0. 2.7. Form VIII — This Form has various meanings, which are partially very different from each other. Some verbs occurring in Form VIII are reciprocal variants of Form I. Verbs of Form VII are partly transitive, partly intransitive. 2.8. Form IX It is almost only used in conjunction with colors and denotes both the arising of the respective state: The horizon took on a reddish color, reddened Bu Ss and its existence, which is often characterized by intensity: The night was (deep-)black. The verbs of Form IX are always intransitive. It is of rare occurrence. i ~ pe to long for rest, to take a rest 2.9. Form X It often occurs in the meaning “to request sth., to ask (so. for sth.)” to ask for or to seek an explanation to seek to obtain fruits, profit = to exploit, (also) to invest profitably However, it is also found in variants of meaning which cannot be delimited more closely, just as Form Lis.

A scientific symposium about the development prospects of agriculture in the Arab countries was held in Cairo last Tuesday. Delegations from all Arab countries as well as representatives of the FAO and the EU took part in the symposium. The participants discussed the development and diversification of agriculture, the problems of desertification, the fighting of plant diseases, the breeding of livestock and the possibilities of increasing the agricultural production of wheat, rye and corn. The symposium issued a number of recommendations to solve the problems which the agriculture in these regions is confronted with. An agricultural fair was held along with the symposium, in which modem tractors, ploughs, pumps and a new specimen of high productivity seeds were shown. Lesson 21 Og pirat y Gael jw yl! 1. The Participle ‘The infinitive (Lesson 22) and the participle are the two nominal forms of the Arabic verb. There are two participles: the active participle (jelall «ly and the passive participle (J yaall +), 1.1. Patterns of the participle 1.1.1. Strong verbs Basic Form: The pattern of the active participle is: (Jel “doing, having done”. ‘The one of the passive participle is: J sade “being done, having been done”. Derived Forms: The active participle of all derived Fors has the prefix mu- and the sequence of vowels a-i. The passive participle of all derived Forms has the prefix mu- and the sequence of vowels a-a. The basic structure of the Forms given in the perfect tense is preserved. The sequence of vowels that follows the prefix is the same as is found in the imperfect tense of the active or passive voice, except for the active participle of Forms V and VI. Accordingly the following arises: Form passive participle active participle 1 dais _ det 1 mo Wa a Vv __ jes VI jeu vil jae vu joa The feminine form takes the ending +. Lesson21 281 GA1 Without amxiliary signs it is outwardly not distinguishable in Forms Il to X whether the respective form is an active or a passive participle. Additional possibilities of confusion arise by the participles of Forms II and IV appearing in the same typeface. 1.1.2. There are some peculiarities in the participles of the defective verbs, as is the case in the perfect and imperfect tense. In the following, we only mention some patterns of the participle of Form | in which the underlying pattern is not easily identifiable. Tables 10, 11 (Appendix) provide a survey of all participles.

Plural form and form of intensity of the participles 1.1.3.1, Certain regularities can be discovered in the forming of the plural of the participles.

The pattern of intensity of the active participle Je is Jus Originally it expressed intensive and routine actions, but it is hardly productive any more nowadays, effective, efficacious constructive jet plane Nouns of this structure, which are derived both from verbs and from nouns, constitute descriptions of occupations. seaman ON > ab =."

Lesson21 285 1,2, The Usage of the Participles The participle combines the meaning of the verb with the formal properties of the noun. Its nominal structure also determines its syntactic use: noun subject, object and predicate complement and adjective = attributive adjunct and predicate complement. 1.2.1. Most participles are lexicalized as adjectives or nouns, i.e. they are pure nouns without any verbal characteristics. Some participles belong to the categories both of adjective and of noun. Adjective: 2% cold (active part,, Form I, root: dx% — acceptable (passive part., Form I, root: J — ~ — 3) Upses — moderate/temperate . (active part., Form VII, root: J - > - &) noun: ele stamp 77) (active part., Form I, root: ¢ — — by official/officer/civil servant (passive part., Form I, root: 3 — & - 4) wae representative team (passive part., Form VILL, root: « — ¢ - 9) adjective 4 active; and noun: worker, factor {active part., Form I, root: J — ¢ — £) remaining; rest (active part., Form I, root: y — ¢ — .») tom legitimate; project (passive part., Form I, root: ¢ — 5 ~ +) GA4 Participles which are lexically fixed as nouns have not lost their ability of being used as participles in the strict sense of the meaning, which has been derived fromthe verb. ib “student” can also mean “claimericlaimant; someone who claims (Something)”.

In the Arab world, we find republics, monarchies, sultanates, emirates and sheikdoms. Most Arab countries gained their national independence after World War [and Il. Some Arab states were able to accomplish a considerable economic and technical upswing owing to their oil resources. The differences between these countries in organizing their societies on a democratic base are still very large. The governments of some of these countries spend 50% of the budget on weapons. The conflict between democratic and traditional forces will become more severe (Jit.; increase in severity / fierceness). Lesson 22 1. The Infinitive (ashy The infinitive is one of the two nominal forms of the Arabic verb. LL. The form 1.1.1.In Form I, there are more than 40 different patterns of the infinitive, of which one or several can belong to a verb. The two infinitives which occur most frequently are: She od He came to Baghdad in order to = = AAT (roi ota J a study Arabic. “ Nall) aatal slay ll el Lesson 22 305 1.2.3. The infinitive has the same power of governing a case that the verb has. Analogously to the goverment of the respective verb it can take an object dependent on a preposition. af the answering of the questions aa gle sf the welcoming of the guests = sal the need for drinks the expression of one’s views In general the accusative object of a transitive verb will not be employed as a direct object related to an infinitive, but is connected with the latter in the form of a genitive construction: to study the Arabic language tea aa 8 the study of the Arabic language Wy gall tal to do the jobs gue suf the doing of the jobs SHEN Feu] The 2™ term of the genitive construction takes the genitive in form, but is the logical object of the infinitive as the 1“ term of this genitive construction. We talk about a Genitivus objectivus here. There are also cases, however, in which the infinitive of a transitive verb takes on an accusative object, namely when the infinitive is already in the construct state and adding the object to the infinitive as the 2” term of a genitive construction is not possible: their studying of the Arabic language = their study of the Arabic language, (the circumstance, aI a ab ele the fact) that they study Arabic ‘The following sentence: He asks before he writes the letter. Bo CK ofS oy can be transformed into an infinitive construction 2s follows: He asks before (his) web es Jo oes | Sal es IB Its writing the letter. 1.2.4. Another method of nominalizing a predicate is connecting the infinitive with the so-called functional verbs. In these patterns the actual predicate is rendered by the infinitive. So the excessive use of nouns, which is often criticized, is also acknowledged in Arabic. 306 Lesson 22 (3 + preposition ~ is the verb used most frequently in this connection: Abmad visited the capital city. a ~ (lit: Ahmad carried out a visit to the capital city, paid the capital city a visit.) A Lebanese student has accompanied the delegation. ~ (lit.: A Leb. student has carried out the accompanying of the delegation.) GA4 There is a multitude of functional verbs, which occur in fixed lexical combinations - in conjunction with certain nouns - (in English these are phrases like “to make a decision”, “to make a statement”, “to read a paper”, “to come to a decision” etc.). They must be leamed as vocabulary items, The periphrasis of the passive voice is a special variety of this usage of the infinitive as a noun. Instead of the passive voice bs | 4a , the perfect or imperfect tense p 5 / 35 “to come about, to be performed, to be accomplished, to take place, to happen” or «s’> / (s >! “ to occur, to come to pass, to take place, to happen” + infinitive is employed: The papers were delivered yesterday. FEGM ~ (lit.: ‘The delivery of the papers came about yesterday, took place yesterday.) tl ror i Se ‘The project is considered quickly. wy bape ou ~ (lit.: The considering of the project is done : pyette Ae with speed / speedily.) al peal ele pe 2. Adverb and adverbial constructions Adverbs serve the purpose of: a) — modifying a verb, an adjective, a participle or an adverb b) making the circumstances clear under which the fact expressed by the predicate comes about. 2.1. Classification of the adverbs The following adverbs belong to a): the qualitative adverbs as a modification of a verb: LS and i “well, LuyLt “strongly, violently/vehemently” a. the quantitative adverbs as a modification of a verb, an adjective, a participle or an adverb: Lesson 22 307 (hoe “very/much”, (45° “much”, SU “little/seldom”, Ls 35 “approximately”, 233-5 “(he) alone/(he) by himself” a.o. The following adverbs belong to b): adverbs of time: oy “now”, i ae “at once”, esa “today”, gt! “yesterday”, (ab “tomorrow”, 3) Sled (Lal! “im the evening”, Lie (cLé2 3) “in the -moming”, “formerly/previously” 2.0.5 of place: Lb “here”, Sus “there”, (3,3 “up; on; top; above; upstairs”; of manner: 6 at (or “secretly”, 2U3 @ “yet; still; nevertheless; for all that”. 2.2. The form The definite or indefinite accusative is the case the adverb takes in Arabic language. Besides, there are adverbial phrases (for formal reasons they are also called prepositional phrases), which consist of a preposition + noun in the genitive. AS Many nouns are used as prepositions when taking the form of the (adverbial) accusative: under, below, beneath, underneath afterwards, later, etc. 2.3. The use 2.3.1. Position in the sentence The qualitative and quantitative adverbs invariably follow the words they modify: 308 Lesson 22 He has done that well. ae OS (ss He has eaten a lot. Aas Ost very good ieee The adverbs are often at the end of the sentence; however, they are not restricted to this position: The Syrian delegation arrived on (63% 205 65 (5 pul Sig Saturday, the Egyptian delegation on q Sunday, 2.3.2. Adverbs as predicates The adverbs and adverbial phrases cannot only be modifiers of other words or specify a predicate, but may also be the predicate of an equational sentence and as such an inseparable part of it. See sentence structure 2 from Lesson 2: Here is a teacher. The teacher is in the room. 2.3.3. Various adverbial constructions Instead of the qualitative adverb, constructions are often used in which it is replaced by a verbal noun or is put to a noun as its attributive adjunct. 2.3.3.1. Preposition 5» + (verbal) noun: Iwalked fast. (instead of) I walked slowly. (instead of) liked to do that. (instead of) He examined that thoroughly. {instead of) Lesson 22 309 2.3.3.2. Preposition 5» + JS % or 352 “form/shape, manner/mode, way” + adjective: He has done that extremely well 5s Ka, (lit.: in an excellent manner) (instead of) Ate GS (a He has done that wel. 5a 5 ge, CUS a (lit.: in a good manner) : in general, generally De 3 has especially, particularly ale Ht 2.3.3.3. Cognate accusative: A verb is modified by being followed by an indefinite noun (mostly an infinitive) in the accusative, which is combined with an attributive adjective. He read the letter slowly. (lit,: He read the letter a slow reading.) ierg dey GAG The cognate accusative, possibly the starting point of the adverb modifying a verb purely and simply, has become rare in modem Arabic, Determining which of the adverbial constructions must be used, depends, to a large extent, on the structure and semantics of the nouns to be employed. Only close observation of the usage and constant practice will lead to the confident ability to apply them correctly. v coming too late 2-1] basic, fundamental pegeee Let's go!

Subordinate Clauses, a Survey (EA Joby Subordinate clauses fulfill in a complex sentence a function similar to parts of a simple sentence. Accordingly, they can be classified as follows: © nominative clauses © objective clauses © predicative clauses © attributive clauses © adverbial clauses All these types of subordinate clauses have already been encountered in connection with various conjunctions. The designation which befits them according to their respective syntactic function was, however, not mentioned in each case: © nominative and objective clauses after &f and S1 © as well as nominal relative clauses after (2) «ssl cle oi. «© predicative clauses as nominal relative clauses; « attributive clauses = adnominal relative clauses; adverbial clauses after the following conjunctions: of ay after of gs before = temporal clauses oh ce since/ever since es until on where = adverbial clauses denoting place that, inorderto _| = final clauses because/for = clauses of reason as; since/because = adverbial clauses although/though _| = concessive clauses asiffas though —_| = comparison clauses but, however/yet however’... though, but/however = adversative parataxis 318 Lesson 23 We do not distinguish here between subordinate and coordinate clauses - as we do in the Indo-European languages - because word order in these clauses introduced by conjunctions does not differ from word order in the principal clause in the Arabic language. In this Lesson and in Lessons 24, 26-28 the following types of clauses are treated, which are important for the Arabic language and for which there are only sometimes equivalents in English: temporal clause, clause of reason, conditional clause and clause of concession, exceptives and circumstantial clause. 2. Temporal Clauses 2.1. They are introduced by means of conjunctions which indicate that the action of the subordinate clause takes place © at the same time as the action of the main clause takes place (when, as soon as = time, while, as long as = duration, whenever = reiteration) before the action of the main clause (after, since, when) or after the action of the main clause (until, before), 2.1.1, Temporal clauses of simultaneousness Simultancousness of the actions expressed by the main and the subordinate clause is expressed by the following conjunctions: Laie + verb in the perfect tense (or IS’ + imperfect tense or cae = when When I was playing, Muhammad came. thd ste Call Lis ite The clause introduced by (“ue may precede the main clause or follow it: Muhammad came when I was playing, lt iS Wile Wise 2a The possibility of the temporal clause being placed in front of or behind the main clause also applies to all following clauses introduced by a temporal conjunction. AL Another syntactic possibility of expressing the simultancousness of the main clause and the subordinate clause consists in the so-called circumstantial clause; ef. Lesson 28 regarding this lade + verb in the imperfect tense = as soon as Twill inform them about this Way Apel dap Ayal oda cle gdb. matter as soon as I meet them. ES daz Lie + imperfect tense, often in a conditional sense = English “when, if”. or (4 + verb in the perfect or imperfect tense have the same meaning Ls does. as A3 In joumalese L+te is found far more frequently. Lei and (a> are more representative of individual style, Lesson 23 319 LASj + verb in the perfect tense (or JIS’ + imperfect tense or participle) or imperfect tense = while I did the work while Muhammad was absent, ge aces as i pai Ido the work while Muhammad is absent. ge 4 ‘Temporal clauses of simultaneousness are furthermore introduced by means of: UL as, when”, Laltb or iS “as tong as”, 9 Ui “so long as... not, unless” and CIS “whenever”, GAS In ¢> Ls, glo is to be conjugated in the perfect tense like pl , accordingly So long as/while I (yowhe’shelwelyouthey) / L234 | gia | 245 |; am here, he will not sleep. a PGRN 2.1.2. Temporal clauses of anteriority ‘Of Aa + verb in the perfect tense = after Iwent home after Ihad done the work. (faa Giauf Sty eth J) ets @A6 Accordingly, in the Arabic language when two events occur at different time-frames in the past, perfect tense - perfect tense is employed, unlike in English, in which “after” requires strict compliance with the Consecutio temporum (past perfect - preterite tense). GA7 Lcxe and Lue , too, can be used in the sense of “when, after” for the purpose of expressing anteriority. In many cases it is neither possible to differentiate them clearly from 0! ww “after” nor from U4) “when, after”, which is seldom used in Standard Arabic nowadays. However, in spoken language the latter occurs very frequently. (Dh 4+ verb in the perfect tense = since T have been (and am still) workingas », -* an interpreter since I graduated from “7 oie tani es aut y university. Halon ¢ oe 2.1.3. Temporal clauses of posteriority Of ($5 + verb in the imperfect tense (subjunctive) = before I (will) ask my father before I write the letter. Wi CST 8 320 Lesson 23 (> + verb in the perfect tense = until He worked until he had accomplished the tasks. ttyl Gol Se 2.2. Frequently a prepositional construction (as has already been practiced in Lesson 22, G5) is chosen - especially for the purpose of expressing anteriority and posteriority - accordingly: 7 Seals / ahi 9 i) 27 instead of posh auf of ogy Haslll Go ortod i insteadof data Go Etos GR An instead of enh / Ugh oj] instead of We are also familiar with it in English, e.g, “after doing the work” instead of “after had done the work”.

As long as we are here, we are able to accomplish all tasks. She booked a room while Peter discussed the price with the waiter. The director was in the restaurant whenever we went to the institute. They went to the city where they met the car-salesman. They financed the project to help the government. He didn’t come because he didn’t have a house. All went to the city centre although it (the weather) was very hot. He worked day and night but he didn’t finish the job.

Example: Rj =, Ro=», y=) <5 “he (has) passed (by)” The peculiarity of these verbs as compared with the sound tiliteral verb consists of the fact that R, and R; are contracted in some of their forms, but not in others. As a rule, R, and R; are contracted ifa vowel follows R; in the form which was based on the pattern of the sound verbs: = = 2 ayes = - _ eZ = Sy Rp and Ry are not contracted if Ry is vowelless in the new form which was formed according to the pattern of the sound verbs: or if there is a long vowel between R, and Ry: One * Same d= 5a The imperfect stem vowel may be a, i or u as is the case with the sound verbs; the vowel that follows Ro in the non-contracted pattems of the perfect tense is almost always a. es i The active participle is: Su The passive participle is: sie Table 27 of the Appendix provides a survey of all active and passive patterns including the jussive and the imperative. 330 Lesson 24 Derived Forms: All patterns of Forms II and V are formed according to the pattem of the sound verbs: = weet 782 = oe ari os ar = v4 = Teas ort ot = je 7 om aioe 2 ae es a ari In the other Forms R; and Rs are contracted in the 3 p. sg. m. The individual conjugational forms follow the rules given above. (Appendix: Tables 27 and 28) AL The Latin term for these verbs is “Verba mediiae geminatae”. In most dialects, these verbs are conjugated in th = like .-*+,, analogous to the ver 2. Verbs with Hamza In the previous lessons verbs with Hamza have already been referred to several times: sf Jt 3 ete, We have used them like the sound verbs in that context - without indicating the fact that they belong to a certain group of verbs - as their peculiarities are nearly exclusively a question of correct spelling. The phonetical peculiarities as compared with the sound verb are limited to a few patterns of the verbs in which Hamza is the 1* radical. They are due to the phonetic law whereby ‘a’ becomes @, i> 'E and ‘u’ > ‘a. However, this law does not apply throughout.

The pattem st can be formed out of many adjectives and out of some participles It expresses a degree of comparison which is called the Elative (, \.2# ). GA2 By “Elative” a degree of comparison is understood which expresses a particularly high degree of the respective quality. In English such words as “thoroughly honest” and “extremely well” can be understood as Elatives. The Arabic Elative is used for expressing: * an (intensified) positive, * the comparative, © the superlative.

We refer to the accusative of an indefinite noun which expresses a modification, a specification (= jaca ) as Tamylz (accusative of specification). According to the rules of classical Arabic language the Tamyiz is used, above all, © with measurements, GAS Example: Le 2 €'53 “a cubit of cloth”. In this function it may be replaced by the preposi- tional phrase (y2 + definite noun - and thus it is also usual in MSA: ¢ 41 gy €153. © after the numerals 11-99 and for indicating the material. > “a ring made of silver, a silver ring”. Nowadays it is better to oy. Rai oye FL or (glad pale a ae 2.2. In MSA such constructions which are equivalent to prepositional phrases with “in” in English are considered Tamyiz-accusatives. lit di Nobody surpasses him in knowledge and cantar eo owledg stg, 3s EES 2.3. The main area in which the Tamyiz is applied is the comparison of adjectives which do not have an Elative. These are: * a) the adjectives which take the pattern (Jai! by nature * b)the participles (except the active participle, Form 1) and the form of intensity JUS © ©) the Nisbas (relative adjectives) # d)the adjectives which take the forms S945 and J 45, as well as some other adjectives. Lesson 25 351 In all. these cases the comparative and the superlative are formed by means of the Elative ‘st “more” + noun in the indefinite accusative. 551 may sometimes be replaced with Sf The difficulty for the non-native speaker consists in knowing which noun is to be used. In case of the participles, it is nearly always the corresponding infinitive which follows {51 or 4i/ In case of the Nisba adjectives and of the adjectives which take on the structure JU4, it is the feminine Misba which follows. If necessary, one can refer to the dictionary for help. The construction becomes definite by the article being placed in front of the Elative. a) | white whiter the whiter, whitest paper the whitest paper Constructions like Lats 354 &55F ie. ifa definite Elative follows the noun, primarily express a comparative.

A number of Arab countries occupy an outstanding rank in the world economy because of their oil resources. Their share in the total oil reserves of the world is more than two thirds. The production costs in the Arab world are much lower, and that is why this industry is much more productive than in other countries. The Arab oil-producing countries have the greatest influence over OPEC. They don’t only sell crude oil, but also oil-derivatives of different kinds, e.g. plastic products, petrol, fertilizers, etc. Many countries have modern ports and giant oil tankers, modem refineries and a large net of pipelines. In the field of the production of phosphate, Morocco and Tunisia are of greatest importance in the world’s production. Besides that, there are mineral resources such as copper, lead, zinc and sulphur. ] Lesson 26 Og pdally ooladt (will 1. Conditional Sentences (Ai',45! asf Sentences in which a condition is mentioned, i.e. facts, the existence or execution of which is the precondition for the existence or execution of other facts, are referred to as conditional sentences. The construction of the conditional Led sentence consists of the conditional clause proper = conditional (protasis ped) and of the result clause (apodosis ';.!") as the logical consequence of the condition, In English, conditional sentences are mostly introduced by the conjunction “if”, A1 Some sentences have the structure of conditional sentences in form, it is true, but they lack the logical-causal relation between the condition and the consequence. In the sentence “if this news is true, the delegation left Cairo yesterday", the truth of the news is not a precondition for the departure of the delegation, and therefore, the latter is not a consequence of the truth of the news formulated in the conditional either. The logical solution would, for instance, read: “if this news is true, this confirms that the delegation ...”. Accordingly, in some sentences the result clause only formally belongs to the conditional period. The following representations about grammar do not give special attention to the sentences “which have a logical break”. 1.1. The real conditional sentence In the real conditional sentenc + the condition is regarded as actually given or as possible with respect to its feasibility. L141. The most common Arabic conjunction employed for introducing such a conditional sentence is '5] “if”. 1.1.1.1. The construction is as follows: (Ja8 stands for the perfect tense, ‘led for the imperfect tense) English ‘Arabic conditional result clause result clause conditional a) present present hs b) present present c) present perfect d) present future c) present future 6 present imperative Lesson 26 363 Accordingly, the Arabic perfect tense always has a present function in these conditional sentences. a) | If you give methe Arabic ~ ch 4) 4h? 2h book, I will give you the CUS LH Cal French book. b) [~ 7 se ©) | If this news is true, the delegation left Cairo yesterday. ® if this news is true, the delegation will leave Cairo tomorrow. ee ®) [If you meet them, inform them immediately. 1.1.1.2, The perfect, tense (53) following 13} may also be replaced by OS + imperfect tense (/{x4/ Ol), Its actual function as present tense is preserved. This construction particularly occurs with modal auxiliary verbs. erie te Zepe 22h If you want to travel tomorrow, discuss YOU IW LG Ol AL 5 GS I (the matter) with the director. ie 1.1.1.3, OLS following 13], with an actual function as present tense, is also employed in the nominal conditional. If Mubammad is present, I will ask him. WB a te Soe 13) 1.1.1.4. G, if employed for the purpose of introducing a result clause, precedes {4,45 and {3 as well as equational sentences. This is in addition to its preceding (» and —>',.. and the imperative: AS 13} as wt If the car is there, we will wavel *, ty -_3%). 2 FC : he jell immediately, of course. (lit: it is etal a bo Ble natural that we ...) Ais If I complete my work by Sunday! 13 354) will have discharged my duty. If you visit it once, you will never forget it. 364 Lesson 26 1.1.1.5. The result clause_may also be a verbal clause preceded by | + subject, which is also preceded by 3 in that case. I you give me the Arabic book, Twill GLAS 33. iah Cush hst 1 give you the French book. cebas 1.1.1.6. Negation: The perfect tense following !5) is replaced by j + jussive. The result clause is negated either by 4 + jussive or by ¥ ty would (not) have arrived in Cairo at 6 o'clock. If Muhammad had not come to me yesterday, I would not have been & si able to give him the book. 368 Lesson 26 12.7. 45 followed by ¥(= Y's) without a verb means “if it were not or had not been for ...”. TF ithad not been for Maammad "him, “5 T would not have completed the work; if it were not for Muhammad / him, I would not complete the work. TRON BAYS 1.3, The concessive clause . . The two conjunctions Sj and ‘“y! - being preceded by 9 (= S15 <5!) - are also used for forming concessive clauses, and are equivalent to the English conjunctions “eyen if, even though, although”. ‘ “5; may be preceded by > even” (= sly >) “even if”. The above-mentioned rules applying to the construction of the clause introduced by 5{ or respectively, apply here as well. The main clause precedes the subordinate clause. I will not accomplish the work, Le \1 Le by aah jal Yo even if I work 16 hours every day. eis SD A int Oe ee ie Be I will not accomplish the work, even if I work 16 hours every day.

Exceptives (gully Exceptive sentences in Arabic are sentences in which a mostly negative statement relating to the subject, object or predicate is restricted. 11.9} The most common Arabic exceptive particle is Y| (< Y O)). The English translation is “except for/that, but” or “only”. 1.1.1. In the negative exceptive the noun excepted by Y] takes on the same case as the restricted noun: No Arab friends attended the event ; ent ear except the Egyptian students; of the Js ale . is Arab friends only the Egyptian students ads. joy came (it.: did not come ... but ...). a a The nominative follows 9), because the restricted noun (claw), also, as a subject of 2% , takes on the nominative. I do not fear anything but hot rs Ge ¥ at 6h, Gely weather; I only fear hot weather. bah The word ,~il, which follows the exceptive particle YJ, takes on the genitive, being subordinated to the preposition .—», which does not need to be repeated. 1.1.2. Quite often, the restricted nouns are not mentioned at all. The excepted noun is the logical complement to the whole sentence, which makes it understandable. Only the Egyptian students attendedthe 20 A ibn ach Jabs event (it; didnot attend the event but .), C2720) HRN lee peo The nominative follows Y\; the government of -24 affects the logical complement Wall, ort I will only buy the two Arabic books. oil oats YW ef fy 378 ~Lesson 27 The accusative follows Y}; the government of sj! affects the logical complement (yi, Tam only afraid of the hot weather. Sh gril lh The government of +L» by means of : is preserved and affects the logical complement , ia), ‘Y), in conjunction with the negation \ and the following pronoun ;<4/'s4, also occurs in a nominal construction with a phraseological value. These words are only (= nothing but) y1 3 ease bbe IK ode an expression of his fear. 1.1.3. A pronoun, a prepositional phrase or a whole clause may also follow Y}, instead of a noun. 1.1.3.1. Pronoun Only he knows that. Dl 1.1.3.2, Prepositional phrase We are only superior to them because of our knowledge. ‘There are contacts with them only 224 xtol a VW = ay within narrowest limits. caouibed EIS eNLal Y oo WY 1+ temporal prepositional phrase is equivalent to the English “only, not until”: He returned only after 2 days. He returned only after two hours. 1.1.3.3, Clauses a) Objective clause Tonly want to say ... Ost of alfy b) Conditional clause You will only complete the work if (3! d 45 che iy Yy dea 4s you work more than 12 hours every ‘ee Lesson27 379 c) Temporal clause He did not inform them about his illness until he had (already) overcome it. We were not informed of this visit until the delegation arrived in the capital city, A restrictive construction with Y| is also possible with other types of subordinate clauses. 1.1.4. The positive exceptive is less common. The excepted noun takes the accusative here - the construction is translated into English by “except, but”. ‘All but Muhammad came. eK pean oe (lit.: All came except Muhammad:) Wares Yh vas oe and 25m" and 25+ “only, merely, solely” are also used instead of YJ... CY). 243, unlike Y\, does not except anything from a general statement; but, as an emphasizing particle, it particularly stresses the statement of a comparatively small quantity, number, period or distance: has ot 326 “only 10 days”, Laas ju gl 5” i» “only 100 km”, be tase Opes aol “only 21 persons” etc. 3 See takes the construct state and precedes nouns, which are mostly indefinite; if the construction is part of a prepositional phrase, the preposition precedes it: With only a letter, we received the papers, / One letter was enough to get the papers. In many dialects, “bass” is used instead of Lis, 1.3, Other exceptive particles Other exceptive particles not as common as y are: in the negative exceptive, Sy and 5.5. They are generally followed by the genitive BL, Only the Syrian friends stayed. dag 60051 B= Ei ‘Only Muhammad helped me. ee & gue 380 Lesson 27 and 134 «Ae U or Ae ta,3 for the positive exception. They are followed by cither the genitive or the accusative. All but the Lebanese delegation left the city. 14.01 6 of Yt or S22 followed by Sf serve the purpose of linking a clause with an adversative clause. The English equivalents are: “however, but, nevertheless, ... (al)though, yet”. The French Minister of Defence has { *; “713 °¢3 ¢ LH 34 3 actually met with the Israelis "72 POS soil OH 5 OL responsible; however, the resolution 3 5 f Sy ota yi og yp tah of the French” government conceming the embargo on the delivery of Mirage planes. still stands. But the speaker refused to mention any details. dar Sf 5 and Of (Ae , which introduce clauses as well, are comparable to Of Yj and St pé. They are translated by “however, but” et. just as those are. 2, Diminutives (y24!)

By now I have learned the Arabic alphabet, equational and verbal sentences, strong and weak verbs, the jussive, the patterns of the verb, singular and sound and broken plural, the défi, the active and passive voice, the Arabic numbers, the infinitive, the E/ative, conditional and exceptive sentences and the accusative. T have also learned many words and read texts about Arab history and Islam, politics, the economy, oil, agriculture, the desert, sports, and Arabic proverbs etc. I have played a lot of roles in the dialogues, and I also had to write letters and my curriculum vitae in Arabic. By now, I know that it is only possible to learn this language if you always attend the lectures, and if you do all your homework (all the exercises which you are instructed to do at home). I also learned how to apologize if I was sometimes unable to attend because the train was late, or because my father was celebrating his fiftieth birthday for the fifth time. I know some Arabic proverbs, too, ¢.g.: If the cat is not at home, the mice start playing. Love is blind. Too many cooks spoil the broth. The son of a duck is a good swimmer. However, I didn’t leam Arabic invectives GSE ¢ 254) and curses (¢ 44) Ls), I must ask my teacher about this before the final examinations in order to know at least some of them in case I need them after the examinations. Now I hope to succeed in the final examinations. ARABIC-ENGLISH GLOSSARY 1. a 2.2. 2.3. 2.4. 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.1. ee 3.3, 3.4, 3.5. 3.6.
