Arabic Pronouns You – Your – Plural form of the Personal and Possessive

Arabic Pronouns You - Your In this lesson we will learn the following principles, In-Shā’-Allâh (God-Willing): We will learn the plural form of the Personal and Possessive Pronouns (i.e. You / Your) referring to the masculine nouns. Example English Transliteration Arabic Singular/ Plural (Arabic) Masculine (Arabic) Grammatical Term أَنْتَ وَلَدٌ You are a boy You (Singular) /Anta/ أَنْتَ اَلْمُفْرَدُ اَلْمُذَكَّرُ اَلضَّمِيرُ الْمُنْفَصِلُ (Detached Pronoun - e.g. You are Tall) أَنْتُمْ أَوْلادٌ You are boys You (Plural) /Antum/ أَنْتُمْ اَلْجَمْعُ كِتَابُكَ Your book Your (Singular) /Ka/ كَ اَلْمُفْردُ اَلضَّمِيرُ الْمُتَّصِلُ (Possessive Attached Pronoun - e.g. Your House) كِتَابُكُمْ Your (pl) book Your (Plural) /Kum/ كُمْ اَلْجَمْعُ The plural form of the simple masculine verbs connected to the pronoun: English Transliteration Arabic Singular/ Plural (Arabic) Masculine (Arabic) You went /Dhahabta/ ذَهَبْتَ اَلْمُفْرَدُ اَلْمُذَكَّرُ You all went /Dhahabtum/ ذَهَبْتُمْ اَلْجَمْعُ We will also learn the use of a new word: Examples Categories أَيُّ Which (Used as Muđâf) in this section we will learn the plural form of two more pronouns In-Shā’-Allâh (God willing). We have already learnt the plural form of two of the detached and two possessive pronouns in Example English Transliteration Arabic Singular/ Plural (Arabic) Masculine (Arabic) Grammatical Term أَنْتَ وَلَدٌ You are a boy You (Singular) /Anta/ أَنْتَ اَلْمُفْرَدُ اَلْمُذَكَّرُ اَلضَّمِيرُ الْمُنْفَصِلُ (Detached Pronoun - e.g. You are Tall) أَنْتُمْ أَوْلادٌ You are boys You (Plural) /Antum/ أَنْتُمْ اَلْجَمْعُ كِتَابُكَ Your book Your (Singular) /Ka/ كَ اَلْمُفْردُ اَلضَّمِيرُ الْمُتَّصِلُ (Possessive Attached Pronoun - e.g. Your House) كِتَابُكُمْ Your (pl) book Your (Plural) /Kum/ كُمْ اَلْجَمْعُ If we use أَنْتَfor a singular noun then we use أَنْتُمْfor the plural nouns. The same rule is applied for the possessive pronoun i.e., if we say قَلَمُكَ (Your pen) for the singular noun, we will then say قَلَمُكُمْ (Your pen) for the plural nouns - i.e. the pen belonging to a group of people in the case of plural. It must however be remembered that the personal pronouns are indeclinable i.e., they do not change their vowel ending with the change of case. So أَنْتُمْ will have the same sukūn on its last letter whether it is appearing in the nominative case or accusative case or the genitive case. Let’s take some more examples for better understanding of the rule: English Transliteration Arabic Pronoun Who are you? (masculine- singular) I am a student /Man Anta/? /Anā ŧâlibun/ مَنْ أَنْتَ؟ أَنَا طَالِبٌ أَنْتَ Where are you from? (masculine - plural) We are from China /Min Aina Antum/? /Naħnu Minaŝ ŝīn/ مِنْ أَيْنَ أَنْتُمْ؟ نَحْنُ مِنَ الصِّينِ أَنْتُمْ Where is your book? My book is in the bag /Aina kitābuka/? /Kitābi fil ħaqība/ أَيْنَ كِتَابُكَ؟ كِتَابِي فِي الْحَقِيبَةِ كَ What is your language? Our language is Chinese /Ma lughatukum/ /Lughatunā Aŝ ŝīniyyah/ مَا لُغَتُكُمْ؟ لُغَتُنَا الصِّينِيَّةُ كُمْ Continued In this part of the lesson we will learn the conversion of a singular past form of the verb to the plural verb In-Shā’-Allâh (God willing). In English the Past form of the verb does not change in plural form. For example, "I walked to the park" becomes "We walked to the park". However, In Arabic different letters are added at the end of the original verb and sometimes even the vowel ending is also changed to change a verb into the plural form. In this part we will only learn to change a singular verb for "you" to the plural verb. For the past tense of a verb i.e., اَلْفِعْلُ الْمَاضِي the following rules are applied English اَلْفِعْلُ الْمَاضِي You (singular) went أَنْتَ ذَهَبْتَ اَلْمُفْرَدُ Singular You (plural) went أَنْتُمْ ذَهَبْتُمْ اَلْجَمْعُ Plural When a singular (masculine) verb is changed to a plural the vowel ending /fatħah/ is replaced with a /đammah/ on the letter تَ and a letter /meem/ with a /sukūn/ on it is added as the last letter so ذَهَبْتَ will be changed to ذَهَبْتُمْ. English Arabic Sentence Gender of Verb You (singular) went to the house أَنْتَ ذَهَبْتَ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ. اَلْمُفْرَدُ You (plural) went to the house أَنْتُمْ ذَهَبْتُمْ إِلَى الْبَيْتِ. اَلْجَمْعُ You went out of the class خَرَجْتَ مِنَ الْفَصْلِ. اَلْمُفْرَدُ You (plural) went out of the class خَرَجْتُمْ مِنَ الْفَصْلِ. اَلْجَمْعُ Oh boy! You sat on a chair يَا وَلَدُ! جَلَسْتَ عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ. اَلْمُفْرَدُ Oh boys! You (plural) sat on a chair يَا أَوْلاَدُ! جَلَسْتُمْ عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ. اَلْجَمْعُ Continued In this lesson, we will learn a new rule related to the /Muđâf/ and /Muđâf Ilaihi/ In-Shā’-Allâh (God willing). We have learnt in Lesson No. 5 section 2 that the /Muđâf/ is definite even though it doesn't have /alif-lām/. We also learnt that the adjective of a definite noun is always definite, so when we add an adjective to a /Muđâf/ it will be definite like it e.g.: English Arabic The new house of the Imam بَيْتُ الإِمَامِ الْجَدِيدُ The boy's broken desk مَكْتَبُ الْوَلَدِ الْمَكْسُورُ The opened window of the room نَافِذَةُ الْغُرْفَةِ الْمَفْتُوحَةُ It is important to identify above the adjectives and the /Muđâf/ and /Muđâf Ilaihi/. Similarly when the /Muđâf Ilaihi/ (possessor) is a possessive pronoun, the adjective of such a /Muđâf/ that it qualifies is definite e.g.: English Arabic His new house بَيْتُهُ الْجَدِيدُ Its opened window نَافِذَتُهَا الْمَفْتُوحَةُ It must be remembered that the adjective of the /Muđâf/ (i.e. possessed noun) that it describes always takes the same case as that of /Muđâf/ i.e., If the /Muđâf/ is in nominative case, the adjective will also take the nominative case e.g.: English Arabic The new book of the teacher كِتَابُ الْمُدَرِّسِ الْجَدِيدُ If the /Muđâf/ is in genitive case, the adjective will also take the genitive case e.g.: English Arabic The book is on the teacher's new desk اَلْكِتَابُ عَلَى مَكْتَبِ الْمُدَرِّسِ الْجَدِيدِ If the /Muđâf/ is a feminine noun, the adjective should also be feminine, e.g.: English Arabic The old bag of the boy حَقِيبَةُ الْوَلَدِ الْقَدِيمَةُ More examples: Picture English Arabic This is the old car of the director هَذِهِ سَيَّارَةُ الْمُدِيرِ الْقَدِيمَةُ. The broken pen of the girl قَلَمُ الْبِنْتِ الْمَكْسُورُ. The dirty shirt of the father قَمِيصُ الأَبِ الْوَسِخُ. The sparrow on the big apple tree اَلْعُصْفُورُ عَلَى شَجَرَةِ التُّفَّاحِ الْكَبِيرَةِ. The vast (spacious) garden of the house حَدِيقَةُ الْبَيْتِ الْوَاسِعَةُ. This story is from the old book of the Arabic language هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةُ مِنْ كِتَابِ اللُّغَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ الْقَدِيمِ. Continued أَيُّ In this lesson we will learn a new word أَيُّ and the rules for its use In-Shā’-Allâh (God willing). أَيُّ is an interrogative article - i.e. it is used to ask questions. In Lesson No. 4 section 4 we have already learnt the use of some of the interrogative articles. However unlike the other interrogative articles, أَيُّ meaning "Which…?" is used as a /Muđâf/ (possessed), so any word that follows أَيُّ will be treated as /Muđâf Ilaihi/ and will therefore take the genitive case with a /kasratain/. E.g.: English Arabic Which house is this? أَيُّ بَيْتٍ هَذَا؟ However the word أَيُّ will take different cases in different situations, i.e.: أَيُّ will take a nominative case with a /đammah/, if it appears as مُبْتَدَأٌ - i.e. in a nominal sentence, for example: English Arabic Which school is this? أَيُّ مَدْرَسَةٍ هَذِهِ؟ أَيُّ will take a genitive case with a /Kasrah/, if it is preceded by a preposition, e.g.: English Arabic In which room did you enter? فِي أَيِّ غُرْفَةٍ دَخَلْتَ؟ أَيُّ will take an accusative case with a fatħah/, if it appears as مَفْعُولٌ بِهِ (the object of a verbal sentence) e.g.: English Arabic Which language do you like? أَيَّ لُغَةٍ تُحِبُّ؟ · Let’s take some more examples of this rule: Picture English Arabic Which day is this? It is Saturday أَيُّ يَوْمٍ هَذَا؟ هَذَا يَوْمُ السَّبْتِ. Which month is this? This is the month of Rajab أَيُّ شَهْرٍ هَذَا؟ هَذَا شَهْرُ رَجَبٍ. Which faculty is this? This is the faculty of Commerce أَيُّ كُلِّيَّةٍ هَذِهِ؟ هَذِهِ كُلِّيَّةُ التِّجَارَةِ. In which school are you? I am in the primary school فِي أَيِّ مَدْرَسَةٍ أَنْتَ؟ أَنَا فِي الْمَدْرَسَةِ الْمُتَوَسِّطَةِ. From which country are you? I am from Jordan مِنْ أَيِّ بَلَدٍ أَنْتَ؟ أَنَا مِنَ الأُرْدُن. Which book do you (all) like? We like the book of Arabic language أَيَّ كِتَابٍ تُحِبُّونَ ؟ نُحِبُّ كِتَابَ اللُّغَةِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ.
