Lesson 20 -��

Number phrase - �� In this section, we will learn the use of the first two numbers in Arabic, In-Shā’-Allâh (God Willing)

relating to feminine /Ma'dood/. To recap the rules we learnt in the previous section:

We have already learnt in the previous lesson that in Arabic language the phrase comprising of a

number and a noun following that number is called a Number Phrase i.e., �� thenumber is called /A'adad/ i.e., �� and the noun describing that number is called /Ma'adood/

�� i.e., the noun for that number.

The number phrase for number "one" and "two" are treated as an Adjective Phrase. We have

already learnt the rules for the Adjective Phrase in (Lesson 9 section 2)

The nouns for the numbers "one" and "two" always precede the number i.e., they come before the

number and are treated as the adjective of that number i.e.:

The noun will take the same case as the number.

It will take the same gender.

It will always be an indefinite noun.

For example:

o One note-book will be translated as �� o Two faculties will be translated as �� !�"#� �� !�$%&��

Let’s use some more examples to understand this rule:

Exercise -��In this section we will have multiple questions to test your understanding of the principles we have

learnt In-Shā'-Allâh (God-Willing). To answer the questions:

Type the complete answer for the following questions by selecting the question and using

the on-screen keyboard or your actual keyboard.

Use the Shift key to enter characters on the upper portions of the letters and use full

diacritics in your answers – e.g. fathah, kasrah, sukūn etc.

Do not use diacritics in the following cases:

§ The Alif followed by laam �� (while the laam itself can be signed with a vowel)

§ The laam followed by alif � (while the Alif itself can be signed when it comes with

hamzah).

§ Do not put the small Alif on words like ��. § Do not put diacritics on long vowels.

Upon completion of all questions, click on the Mark button to see the correct answer and to

get your mark.

Lesson 20 -��

Number phrase - �� In this part of the lesson, we will revise the Arabic numbers from 3 to 10 and the rules relating to

their use, In-Shā’-Allâh (God Willing). In Arabic language, for the numbers 3 to 10, the following

rules are applied, this is revision with examples of feminine /ma'dood/:

The number always precedes the noun, i.e., the noun always appears after the number,

e.g.:

�� !�" meaning "Three sisters"

The noun should always be in plural form whereas the number always appears in singular

form, e.g.:

��#��$�� %�&�� meaning "Four words.

The number will take different cases according to the situation, but the noun will

always take the genitive case, e.g.:

��#��'#�( �%�)�* meaning "Seven universities".

The noun is always indefinite, and hence it takes the double /Kasrah/ and no

/alif-laam/ e.g.:

��#��+ ��+ meaning "Ten paternal aunts".

The number of the feminine noun is always masculine .i.e., whenever there is a feminine

noun, the number for that noun should always be in masculine form e.g.:

�,#�-�. �/�� meaning "Five women"

Let’s use some examples for a better understanding of the rule:
