IT will be observed that this little Work is properly 
divided into three Parts. The first is an Elementary 
Grammar ; the second, an Analytical Beading Book ; and 
the third, Grammatical Exercises. 

The beginner is recommended to acquaint himself with 
the first eleven sections of the Grammar, taking particular 
care first to obtain a thorough knowledge of the powers 
of the letters. He should then commit the regular con- 
jugations to memory. A moderate acquaintance with 
the Grammar, thus far, will enable the learner to proceed 
with the Analysis. But here he cannot too carefully 
attend to the references made to the first portion of the 



ADVERTISEMENT. 

Work. By an adherence to this plan of study, he will 
easily attain sufficient knowledge to enable him to avail 

. 

himself, with ease, of works which treat upon the Arabic 
language more fully.

versation," on the plan of Perrin's " Dialogues."

IV ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 



SECT. 1. ARTICULATION OF THE LETTERS. 

Most of the letters are articulated according to the 
powers assigned to them in the preceding Table. The 
following, however, for want of proper English equiva- 
lents, require special notice : 

1. \ is, like the Hebrew tf , a scarcely audible breathing 
from the lungs, the spiritus lenis of the Greeks. When 
it begins a word or syllable, it stands properly for the 
Hamza (written thus *), and partakes somewhat of the 
sound of . Alif is likewise used to lengthen the vowel a. 
In the former case, we have retained Hamza in the line, 
when writing Arabic with English characters, allowing 
its vowel to follow; in the latter case, we have marked 
the vowel , thus, a. 

2. LJ is sounded like th in thumb. 

3. likej in job. In some parts of North Africa it is 
pronounced like the French j, or g in the word menagerie. 
In other parts, as in Tripoli, it is sounded like g in 
garden. 

4. , represented in our Table by A, has a strong pec- 
toral sound, and is to be carefully distinguished from &, 
the English h in hand. 



AKTICULATION OF THE LETTERS. V 

5. , represented by A, is a guttural equivalent to the 
Hebrew ft , or the German ch in Nach. Buck. 

6. \j, s, is articulated stronger than (JM, our .simple 5. 

7. jjfi, #. The manner in which the English d is 
sounded at the end of the words hand, good, God, con- 
veys as nearly as possible the power of this letter. In 
addition to this, it is to be observed that the Arabs sound 
the Dad by placing the tongue partly against the roof of 
the mouth, allowing the tip of it slightly to touch the up- 
per teeth, and uttering, at the same time, a pectoral sound. 

8. k, t, is articulated stronger than Cl>, t, our simple t. 

9. k, d. There is scarcely any difference in the sound 
of this letter and that of Dad; indeed, they are often 
interchanged. Some, however, pronounce it like our 2, 
with a hollow sound from the throat, and others, again, 
like ih in father. 

10. ^. The articulation of this letter, in a great mea- 
sure, resembles that produced after a severe effort made 
to swallow. Being unable to assign to it an equivalent 
in English, we shall retain it in the line (comp. 1, No. 1), 
whether as an initial, medial, or final. 

11. jj y, represents a gargling sound from the throat, 
similar to that with which r is pronounced by some of 
the Germans. 



vi ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

12. jj, represented by ^, is pronounced by contracting 
the throat, and then uttering the sound ka. The cawing 
of the rook or crow resembles very nearly the sound given 
to this letter by the Arabs. In some parts of Syria jj 
is pronounced like tsh; in others the vowel merely at- 
tached to it is sounded, and in some parts of North Africa 
it is sounded simply like g in go. 



SECT. 2. MODE OF WRITING ARABIC. 

1. The Arabic, like most of the Oriental languages, is 
written from right to left. 

2. All the letters of the Alphabet are capable of being 
joined to each other, so as to form one whole in the word, 
with exception of these six, \ A ^ J j *-> which can 
be joined to the preceding letter only. The following 
specimen (recommended to be copied by the beginner) 
exhibits the forms which the letters assume, according to 
their various positions : 



JjJ 



VOWELS. vii 

3. As Arabic words are not divided at the end of the 
line, it is customary to write the overplus letters above 
the last word, or to fill out the line by prolonging the 
connection between any of the letters capable of being 
joined; e.g. A * J for *uJ 



SECT. 3. VOWELS. 

1. The Arabs express their vowels by the three follow- 
ing signs : 

SHOKT VOWELS. 

__ Fatha, a read a in bad. 
Kasra, i ,, i in gin. 
^L. Damma, u ,, u in bush. 

Although there is some slight modification in the pro- 
nunciation of these vowel signs ; e. g. Fatha is sometimes 
pronounced like a in father, Kasra like e in bell, and 
Damma like o in not (the latter of which we have occa- 
sionally adopted) ; still as these are rather dialectical 
peculiarities, we shall retain the equivalents given above, 
which, with a slight modification of the first, are the 
vowels as pronounced on the continent, and adopted here 
for the sake of brevity. 



Vlll ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

2. These vowels are prolonged when folio wed respec- 
tively by the feeble or quiescent letters I, j, c_f, so that 
we obtain, according to the following succession, the 

three 

LONG VOWELS: 

x- 

I a as b ba. 

^ ~ i s #* 
^ u $ bu. 

NOTE. There is also a perpendicular Fatha, _L, 
which indicates that \ has been omitted after it, 
and must be regarded as long. 

3. But when Fatha is followed either by a vowelless 
j or t/, it constitutes the following two 

DIPHTHONGS : 
j au, as bau, pronounced like ow in how and now. 

S 

^ ~ ai, as ^J bai, or as ai in vain. 

NOTE. L5 at the end of a word preceded by Fatha 
is not pronounced, as ( J* a-/, ^j ra-ma. 



SECT. 4. NUNNATION OR TEN WIN. 

The above three vowel signs are sometimes written 
double at the end of a word, and sounded as if followed 



SYLLABLES AND OKTHOGRAPHICAL SIGNS. JX 

by n. They assume the following forms : JL. aw, ~ m, 
__ ow, and are technically called Tenwin Fatha, Tenwin 
Kasra, Tenwin Damma. The use of the Nunnation is 
confined to the reading of the Koran and poetry, and is 
never employed in prose and in common life. 



SECT. 5. SYLLABLES AND ORTHOGRAPHICAL 
SIGNS. 

1. In an Arabic syllable the consonant is always pro- 
nounced before the vowel, which latter may be said to 
follow the consonant, whether placed above or below the 
same. There is no syllable which begins with a vowel, 
like #, or with two consonants, like blow. 

2. A syllable is called pure when it consists of one 
consonant and a vowel, which latter may either be short 

** ** / * 

or long, ^', c_>, < >, \>9\j>,j* ] ^ is called mixed when 
closed by another consonant ; comp. the following : 

3. In the latter case the sign Jasm (or Sukun) _L_ or 
JL (answering to the Hebrew Sheva quiescent) is placed 

O^ C G> 

over the closing consonant, as J Ian, ^ min, *& hum. 
This obtains also withj and u5 when they form diph- 

x-G^ S-G^ 

thongs, as /*y, yau-ma, ^^ zai-non. 



X ELEMENTS OF AKABIC GKAMMAR. 

4. A mixed syllable may be formed also without Jasm, 
when the sign Tashdid, _^, is found placed over the 
closing consonant, by which the latter is doubled (the 

55 ^ 

Hebrew Dagesh forte) ; e. g. c- a kaf-fa. This sign is 

either Tashdid characteristic, employed to construct a 
^/ ^^^ 

new form, as J-u, from J-u ; Tashdid compensative, to 

55^ 

compensate for a letter which is omitted, as Jj qal-la, 
for Jls ; or Tashdid euphonic, to prevent harshness of 
sound. 

5. Hamza, L or ~, accompanies the vowel of Alif when 

' < 

this letter begins a syllable, as ^^>\ *an-ta. Hamza may, 

f. 

however, also be found over I without a vowel, and then 

** ^5-x^ 

it simply indicates that Alif is radical, as ^b ya-ma-na. 

^s-^ 

This sign is sometimes found instead of \ , as J-^j yas- 

^ ^o ^ 

s-a-lu, for J^>. . Hamza found withj and uf denotes that 

' $-> ~> S.S- ^ 

these are placed instead of 1 ; thus, ^jJ yu-mi-na; Afe\ 
s-a-ba-s-i-kum, in which latter case the diacritic points of 
c_ are usually omitted. 

6. Wasla, :, is placed over \ at the beginning of a 
word, to indicate that this letter is to be passed over 
in the pronunciation, and the one following it to be pro- 



DIVISION OF LETTERS. XI 

nounced with the last vowel of the preceding word ; e. g. 

^ -51-0 sss 

^jj jj 1 jS& ka-fa-ra 'l-la-dzl-na. 

7. Madda, ji., is put over \ to show that another I has 
been omitted after it, as jj^ 1 *d-ma-na, for j*^H . This 
mark is also placed over \ followed by Hamza, to show 
its quiescence in, and prolongation of, a preceding Fatha, 

Sf~^^ 

as *U~j sa-ma-*on. It is finally used, also, as a sign of 

*- S <j ^ 

abbreviation; e.g. , for '-*>- jam-zon, plural. 



SECT. 6. DIVISION OF LETTERS. 

1. The letters of the Arabic alphabet are chiefly divided, 
according to the organs of speech by which they are 
enounced, into 

1. Gutturals * d c ^- \ 

2. Labials j /* u-? c_j 

3. Palatals ^ cJ j 

4. Linguals ^Ju^uL^^Jj^ 

5. Dentals la L j J clj CL> 

Letters of the same organs are frequently interchanged 



Xll ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

2. Into the (so called) solar* and lunar letters. To 
the former belong the linguals and dentals, by which the 
article (q. v.) is seriously affected ; the remainder are all 
lunar letters. 

3. The letters 1, j, t/ are called feeble or quiescent 
letters. (1) They become, quiescent when they are pre- 
ceded by a homogeneous vowel, or a vowel related to 
them in the pronunciation, and the vowel is thereby 
lengthened ; but after a heterogeneous vowel they form 
a diphthong. (Comp. Sect. 5, Nos. 2, 3.) (2) The diph- 
thong is often avoided by the heterogeneous letter giving 
place to the one which is homogeneous with the preceding 

S *~ JO^ S^ S^^ 

vowel ; e. g. j\A a dwelling, forj-> J ; j\j Jire, forjjJ. 

SECT. 7. PECULIARITIES OF J AND ^ 

1. When any of the solar letters (Sect. 6, No. 2) is 

<* 
preceded by the article J \ the, J is then passed over, 

and the solar letter following it is doubled by Tashdid, 



* Because the words /.^^-l sun, and .*$ moon, severally begin 
with one of these letters. 



QUANTITY OF SYLLABLE AND PLACE OF TONE, xiii 

and pronounced with the vowel preceding Lam ; e. g. 

^ O^ S. 

(j^4oLl \ iash-sham-so, the sun. This obtains, also, when 
the prefix ^ is attached to the article and \ is dropped, 

G tf 

as ^^^^u^JJ lish-sham-si, to the sun. 

2. In respect to ^ the following rules are to be ob- 
served : 

() ^) before cy is sounded like > ; e.g.j^xc s-am-ba-ron. 

(b) Before the rest of the letters, except the gutturals, 

^ -'OjC. 

^ receives a nasal sound ; e. g. Jj-^ sang-za-la. 

(c) ^ is not pronounced before any of the letters j, <_ 

w -53 " 

(*' j? J? which are then doubled by Tashdid, as <--^ ^ 
mir-rab-U. 

' G ^ O 

(c?) Before U the u of ^ q/*, and ^ from, is dropped, 

-5" x- ' <^ s- 

and * receives Tashdid, thus U*c for t (j^. 

SECT. 8. QUANTITY OF THE SYLLABLE, AND 
PLACE OF THE TONE. 

1. A syllable is long when it has a long vowel (Sect. 

s - s ^ 

3, No. 2), as ^V 1 ^ di-bd-jon,jj> nu-ron. 

2. Words of two syllables have the tone on the first, as 

S o ,- 

raj-zon. 



xiv ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

3. Those of more than two syllables have the tone on 

^ **(^s~ 

the anti-penultima, as < *-r^j. ya'd-ru-bu ; excepting when 
the penultima has a long vowel, for then this takes the 

s~ L> ^ 

tone; e.g. i^+^-j rah-md'-ni. 

4. Mixed syllables (which are long by position) take 

GJ O ^ ^ 

the tone, as *jJ-xJ qa-tal-tum . In this example stress 
is put on the last two syllables, but the chief tone rests on 
the penultima. 

5. In words joined by Wasla, the connecting vowel, 
namely, the last of the preceding word, is to be accented ; 

& -a o ^ ^ ~o ^ 

e.g. *UI *-UAJ bis-mi V-la-hi, (j^/^ ^ mi-na T-kd-Ji- 



ri-na. 

SECT. 9. CIPHERS. 

Besides the use of the letters of the alphabet to express 
numbers (see the Table), the following, called the Indian 
ciphers, are in more common use. They are written from 
left to right.

E.g. !*cr 1852. 



THE VERB. ACTIVE VOICE. XV 

SECT. 10. THE VERB. 

The generality of Arabic verbs consist of three radical 
letters, which are most distinctly exhibited in the 3rd 
pers. sing. masc. of the preterite ; this, therefore, is re- 
garded as the root of the verb, and the ground- form in 
each conjugation. There are thirteen forms or species of 
conjugation (most of them having their passives), and every 
verb may be inflected according to one or more of them. 
The first of these is regarded as the primitive conjugation, 
and the rest as derivatives of the same. The following is 
a specimen of the first or primitive regular conjugation, 
from which the moods and tenses will become apparent.

THE VEEB. XV11 

REMARKS. 

1. The forms given in the Paradigm, according to 
which the vowels of the second radical of the preterite is 

" t and that of the imperative and future - ? are the 
usual ones for transitive verbs. There are, however, also 
forms in which the second radical in the preterite is either 
~ or - j in which case the verbs are intransitive ;* e. g. 
~j to rejoice, J-*^ to be handsome. The latter form 

^-^ j .-O^ 

their future generally with _^; e. g. ^yb : but also with 
~7, as ^jjuu^so, from jj-***>- to be fair. The futures are 
pointed out and designated, in the lexicon, by fut 0, 
fut. A, fut. I. 

2. Verbs whose second radical in the future has either 
__ or "7, form their imperatives with T~ , under the pros- 

X*C S S 

thetic Alif, instead of __ ; e. g. Ac! know, from Ac. 

3. Besides the form of the future given in the Para- 
digm, there are also 

(1) The apocopated future, so called because that the 
last letter which, in the ordinary future, has _. takes here 
JL., and ^ is dropped in those forms in which it is the 
final letter, except in the 2nd and 3rd plur. fern., where 

O jO j >0^ *,<s s 

it is retained ; e. g. JX \ instead of J^s 1, ( Jj2-> instead 

oO s 

of (1 ^^. 

* See Note, John 23 (0, p. 95. 



XV111 ELEMENTS OP ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

(2) The so-called nasbated* future. This future has 
_!. with the last radical, wherever the ordinary one has _i_, 

x- 

and rejects the final ^ and ^ in the dual and plur. masc. 
forms. 

(3) The future paragogic is characterised by ^ with 

G 

Tashdid (sometimes with Jasm, <j) added to all the per- 
sons, and is preceded by \ in the 2nd and 3rd plur. fern. ; 

4 ^o w ^o^o^ 

e. g. 1 com. sing, ^p-^, 2 fern. plur. ^ 



NOTE. The apocopated future is used after the 

o ^ "& ^ x- 

particles *J not, U! not yet, ^ not, and J that, 
when the same has a prohibitory or an imperative 
signification. Also in hypothetical sentences, 
and when the imperative is followed by a verb 

^ G jo o^o^ 

in the future ; e. g. C^zJ \ ^^ \ assist me, 
and I shall assist thee. . This future is also used 

o 

when the following particles precede it : ^1 if, 

^ Ox- SS. ^O^ 

U what, ^ who, <js\ who, U^* as often as, 

^o^ ^^o ^ 

in what manner, ^\ and Uo-Xs^ where, 

^ ^ ^ *> ^ 

UJ1, jjlj! when, \4\ if. 



* On account of its receiving Fatha, which is likewise called 
Nasba. 



THE VEKB. XIX 

The nasbated future lias, generally speaking, 
a subjunctive signification, and is used after the 

o ^ 

particles J not, J that (but not when this par- 
ticle converts the future into the imperative), 

oj o ,- o It 

,J that, ,_ that, and the compound ..jU, 

^v ,^ x 

^o^ "i.^ -35^ 

IA, ill, LJ m orcfer that, etc. Also after 

". x/-> ^^ 

and ! j! in the sense of behold! , JU- w?z^7, 
,* " 

s in the sense of so that ; e. g. perse- 
." ^ s / ^ 

cute him not, LLXL^jJ 50 #Aif 7ie perish, q. d. lest 
he perish ; and after j following words which 
signify command, wish, prohibition, etc. 

The last future is employed in questions, 
commands, wishes, swearing, threatening, etc. 

SECT. 12. 

The above exhibition (Sect. 11) of the primitive, or 
first conjugation, shows the mode of attaching the afforma- 
tives and preformatives to the root of the verb. Nearly 
upon the same scale are they attached in the derived 
conjugations. In the following representation of the 
whole THIRTEEN we need, therefore, only give the lead- 
ing form of the mood and tense in each.

SECT. 13. EXPLANATION OF THE THIRTEEN 
CONJUGATIONS. 

I. The primitive, oijirst conjugation (* J^>) contains the 
simple primary signification of the verb, whether transi- 
tive or intransitive. 

^^^ 

II. The second conjugation (J^), with Tashdid upon 
the second radical, is intensitive, or adds intensity to the 
signification expressed by \\\Q first ; e. g. to break, and to 
dash in pieces. It makes the intransitive signification 
transitive, or it designates the allowing, requesting, or 
commanding of that which the verb of thejfirst conjuga- 
tion signifies, or also the declaring and estimating of its 
being that. 

III. The third conjugation ( J^') expresses reciprocity ; 

e. g. to beat, and to beat one another, or tojight. 

"<,*. 

IV. The fourth conjugation ( JAJJ \) has a causative signi- 

^-* x-^C^ 

fication ; e. g. **b to eat, **b \ to cause to eat, to feed. 



* The primary meaning of this verb, which should have been 
indicated in the preceding Table, is to meet, come to. meet, to accept, 
admit. 



EXPLANATION OF THE CONJUGATIONS. XX111 
^Zs' 

v. The fifth conjugation (J^iu) is either passive or re- 
flexive of the secewc?. 

vi. The sixth conjugation (JjlSJ) the same as the third, 
of which it is also occasionally used as a passive. 

VII. The seventh conjugation (JjJOl) has either ft pas- 
sive or reflexive signification. 

REM. When the first radical happens to be Nun, 
the characteristic ^ is compensated by Tashdid ; 

e. g. r^jJ to bark, makes *uj! instead of *J*ti\. 
* 



VIII. The eighth conjugation (JjJol) is either passive 
or reflexive of the first conjugation. 

REM. 1. When the first radical is one of the letters 
(j, ^0, IP, 1?, then j between the first and second, 
radical is changed to 1? ; e. g. ^i* to suit, becomes 

^ ^ ^ i 

in this conjugation ^JJo*! : but the last two are 
also sometimes substituted by Tashdid ; e. g. c-^ljs 
to seek, is in this conjugation v_JJA 
2. When the first radical is j , the characteristic 
CU of this conjugation is changed into t>, thus 



XXIV ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

sssl, sss-<s 

(J^4)\ for <ji^ The cu may also be substituted 
by _r_, as <J^. In this last manner is the CL> 
likewise compensated, when the first radical is 

^ ^ S SS^ 

either cU, J, or 3 ; e. g. c^oo! for 



IX. The ninth conjugation (JjJJl) is used in the descrip- 

*^ o * 

tion of colours ; e. g. j*=\ to be red. 

s s<~>s O 

x. The tenth conjugation (J-xaJLsl) expresses wzsA, or 
desire, for that which is contained in the primitive form ; 

^ ^ ^o^c 

e. g. JLB. to know, +bl~i\ to desire to know. 

& s<s 

XI. The eleventh conjugation ( J Uj 1 ) is, in force of signi- 
fication, like the ninth. 

s ^OxO ^ ^i^O 

The twelfth ( JjjjJl) and thirteenth conjugations 



are rarely used, and add intensity to the signification 
contained in the^rstf conjugation. 



SECT. 14. QUADRILITERALS. 

Quadriliteral verbs have only four forms, which are 
conjugated nearly in the same manner as the triliteral 
verbs. The characteristics of these forms will appear from 
the following Table :

XXX11 ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

SECT. 17. THE ARTICLE. 

ut 

1. The Arabic language lias but one article, Jl, a/, 
the, which is neither affected by number, gender, or case. 
It is not only prefixed to the noun, but also to the adjec- 

jO ^G-0 j o & S. 

tive connected with it ; e. g. j& \ J^J \ , ar-ra-ju-lu 
'l-ka-bi-ru, the great man. 

2. The noun is, besides, made definite by suffixes being 
attached to it, or by a noun in the genitive case following, 
in which case no article is required ; e. g. L/J^ da-rl, 
my house, ^^\ /*# yau-mu'd-dl-ni, the day of judgment. 

3. When the noun with suffix is followed by an ad- 

j ^O~O 

jective, the latter receives the article ; e. g. +&v&\ ,J^ 

I ** ^ Sr ^"^ 

dl-ni 'l-za-'di-mu, my great debt. 

4. Proper names do not receive the article. 

5. The influence the solar letters exercise upon the 
article, see Sect. 7. 

SECT. 18. THE NOUN. 

The Arabic noun consists either of the radical letters 
only, being modified by the vowel, or it is augmented by 

others, which are either prefixed, as /, cu, I, or affixed, 
**. 

ae c^, I, j^Vifl. or inserted, as cf. j, ^ 



GENDER OF NOUNS. XXX111 

SECT. 19. GENDER OF NOUNS. 

The noun is either masculine, feminine, or common. 
There is no particular termination in the form of the last 
to distinguish it from the others. 

Of the feminine gender are 

1. Nouns naturally feminine, irrespective of their 
terminations, as *\ mother. 

* O 

2. The names of towns and countries, asy^ Egypt, 

** /,- o 

l)l^X*i Ispahan. 

3. Those members of the body which consist of two, 

S O? JO/ 

as ^\ an ear, ^ji a horn. 

4. All nouns which end (a) in * . This termination 
added to a masculine noun converts it into a feminine ; (b) 

f~ f~^ O 

in f ! , as ^^5 pride; (c) in ^j , in which ^j is mute 

s ^ /o ^ 

(see Sect. 3, 3 note) ; e. g. jj&~> a drunkard, <)** a 
drunken woman. 

5. Nouns not having the endings given in No. 4, are 
either masculine or common, with the exception of a few 
which are feminine, and can only be learned by practice. 
There are some, also, with a feminine termination, but 
are of masculine gender. 



XXXIV ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

SECT. 20. NUMBER AND CASE. 
. 1. The noun is either in the singular, dual, or plural 
number, designated for dual by j^ , and for the plural 

' S 

by ^ masculine, cul '^L feminine. 

2. The cases are specified in the singular by the three 
Ten wins (Sect. 4), viz. Damma JL for the nominative, 
Kasra ~ for the genitive and dative, and Fatha (with 
1 _. in the masc.) ^_ for the accusative. The dual changes, 

o 

in the oblique cases, the nominative ^\ _^_ into ^ __ ; 

the plural changes the nominative ^ into ^ in the masc., 

and the ci^l into cu! .

3. To express the vocative, the particle u oh ! is placed 

before the noun, which usually receives the sign of the 
<# ^ ^ ^ 

accusative ; e. g. "^rj \-* t oh man ! Sometimes the noun 
receives the Damma, especially in proper names, or in 
appellatives which have the article; e. g. *J>! l> h Adam ! 

^ -~o ^ 

jjwUl 1 1; oh ye men ! But when the noun is accompanied 

G ss s 

by the prefix J , it takes the genitive, as J^jJ b oh ! help 

( 

or assistance for Zaid. 

REMAKE. 

st ss. 

1. The following six nouns, viz. <>! father, \ 

S' S ' S ' 

brother, *J mouth, *=>- father-in-law, ^ thing, 
and jJ possessor, receive, before a genitive, or the 
suffixes, the feeble letters ,5, j , ^ instead of the 

<*' -* V " 1 

mere vowels; e. g. <&j \ the father of Zaid, ^\ 

x- O ^ 

my father, <Uo-j ^J of the merciful, literally, of 
the possessor of mercy. 



XXXVI ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 

2. Some nouns have only two signs for the desig- 
nation of cases (diptota) viz. _. for nominative, 
and ^. for the oblique, cases. Of this class are (1) 
nouns of the form J+s 1 ; e. g. j*&~\ red, j^=^ 
greater, in the oblique cases ^*>J>^.x=l ; (2) ad- 
jectives ending in ^\^L; e.g. ^^^ angry*, (3) 
feminines ending in \ ; e. g. \jj~o a yellow (woman) ; 
(4) the names of countries, cities, villages, moun- 
tains, rivers, and persons, ,-A* , <CC , 



3. Nouns retaining the same termination throughout 
all the cases (monoptota) are (1) feminines ending 

^O ^ ^ s 

in c/~; e.g. c/^, c?;Uytf ; (2) nouns termi- 
nating in \^_, ^, and properly the result 

<f- ' Ss ^ ^ ^ S ^ ^ 

of a contraction ; e. g. l^c for^ac, ^^-j for ^>-j, 
f \j for ^.\j. 

4. Some nouns borrow their plural from a singular 

s-i s ^ti 

which has become obsolete ; e. g. <%', pi. ci 

J^i Jx- 5 xo .? ^ 

from <u! ; j, pi. yljjl, from y. 



ADJECTIVE. XXXV11 

SECT. 21. IRREGULAR PLURALS, OR PLURALES 
FRACTI. 

Besides the regular plural terminations given above, 
there are twenty-eight irregular forms, which are more 
commonly used than the regular. They are the follow- 

S s*t TGv S-C Jjv &^ <T --

27 ilU5, 28 JJo. 



SECT. 22. ADJECTIVE. 
COMPARISON OF ADJECTIVES. 

The adjective, in respect to form and inflexion, attaches 
itself to the noun, so that we have to notice here merely 

its mode of comparison, which is effected by prefixing 1 

s ^ ' * ' ^s- 

to the form of the positive ; e. g. ( j^=^ handsome, ^*w**i 
handsomer, the nunnation being dropped. The com- 



XXXV111 ELEMENTS OF ARABIC GRAMMAR. 



parative is followed by ^ ; e. g. J^j ^ ^z\ richer 

^ O ^^Gf. 

than Zaid, cXx* ^a\ wiser than thou. It is also to be 

<? $ ~o ^ ^ G X 

found without ^.j* ; e.g. (j*Ui! jj-uxs.-! the best of men.

REMARKS. 

1. The suffixes are attached alike to the noun and 
verb, as L5 jls qal-li, my heart; &1& ki-ta-bu-hu, 

^^(s^s- 

his book ; <uUj qa-tal-tu-hu, I have slain him ; 
with this exception, that with the verb the 1st 

^O^ s 

pers. sing, is ^y, instead of c/~; e.g. ^e&j* 
'da-rab-ta-m, tliou didst strike me. 

** .**<> 

2. When Kasra or Ya precede the suffixes *, Uj&, 

(^ ^* & * ~^ 

<^, and jfc, their _j^ is changed to T; e. g. ^Jj, 



3. The suffix of the 1st pers. sing., when attached 

to a word which terminates with a quiescent \ , the 

^ <* ^ 

tj 1 becomes u ; e. g. U^ .a-san, with this suffix 

^Loc. za-sa-ya, my stick ; but when a quiescent 
t_ precedes it, the two Yas coalesce, which is indi- 
cated by a Tashdid compensative ; e. g. ^*z be-

PARTICLES. 

Under this appellation are comprised the adverbs, pre- 
positions, conjunctions, and interjections, all of which 
are indeclinable. The first three consist either of separate 
words, or of mere prefixes. The former belong rather to 
the lexicon than to the grammar, so that the latter only 
will be noticed here. They are

1. 1 is an interrogative particle; e.g. c^'U! has he 

died? Occasionally it is employed to designate the

vocative ; e. g. u- c-^o \ oh Joseph ! 

2. (JM is added to the verb to designate that it is un- 

- j O s s 

mistakably in the future tense ; e. g. Jjou-a he shall slay. 
The (jw is, properly speaking, an abbreviation of < Jj-j 
future. 

3. J is an affirmative adverb, especially when ^1 is 
put before the person or thing, respecting which some-

the genitive case, and it is employed to express its 
peculiar force, which is to indicate the locality where

indicated. This signification of c-J obviates the use 
of the accusative, which the sense here requires.

* It is necessary here to inform the learner that, in common con- 
versation, neither the tenwins nor the vowels are sounded when they 
occur at the end of words. The last letter is generally regarded as 

-J O j 

accompanied by a skoon (o). Thus, e. g. L^vlj is not read, or pro- 

i O 

nounced, qul-tu, but quit; *-Lc is not sounded .il-mi^ but zilm. 
The exceptions to this rule are, however, very numerous, and can 
only be acquired by practice.
