Questions for Each Lesson

Answer Key

Let’s start with the first lesson:

The Arabic Alphabet.

The Arabic alphabet consists of 28 letters, most of which have different forms depending on their position in a word. The letters are written from right to left, and are usually connected to each other, except for six letters that are always written separately. These six letters are: ا (alif), د (dal), ذ (dhal), ر (ra), ز (zay), and و (waw).

The Arabic letters can be divided into two groups: consonants and vowels. The consonants are the main letters that represent the sounds of the language, while the vowels are the marks that are added above or below the consonants to indicate the pronunciation. The vowels are also called harakat (movements), and they are not always written in Arabic texts, especially in formal and literary contexts. The vowels are: َ (fatha), ُ (damma), ِ (kasra), ْ (sukun), and ً (tanwin).

The Arabic alphabet can be written in different styles, such as Naskh, Kufi, Thuluth, and Nastaliq. The most common style used today is Naskh, which is also the style used in the Quran. The Naskh style is clear, simple, and easy to read. Here is a table that shows the Naskh style of the Arabic alphabet, along with the name, sound, and transliteration of each letter.

––––––––

Note that some letters have more than one sound or transliteration, depending on the dialect or the context. For example, the letter ج (jim) can be pronounced as /dʒ/ (j) in most dialects, or as /ʒ/ (zh) in some dialects, such as Egyptian Arabic. Similarly, the letter و (waw) can be pronounced as /w/ (w) when it is a consonant, or as /u/ (u) or /o/ (o) when it is a vowel. The same applies to the letter ي (ya), which can be pronounced as /j/ (y) when it is a consonant, or as /i/ (i) or /e/ (e) when it is a vowel.

This is the end of the first lesson. I hope you learned something new and useful. In the next lesson, we will learn about the definite article and the sun and moon letters. Stay tuned! 😊

Alright, let’s move on to the second lesson:

––––––––

Lesson 2

The Definite Article and the Sun and Moon Letters.

The definite article in Arabic is ال (al), which is equivalent to the English ‘the’. The definite article is attached to the beginning of a noun or a noun phrase to indicate that it is specific or known. For example, the word كتاب (kitab) means ‘a book’, while the word الكتاب (al-kitab) means ‘the book’.

However, unlike the English ‘the’, the Arabic ال (al) is not always pronounced the same way. Depending on the first letter of the noun that follows it, the Arabic definite article can have two different pronunciations: sun or moon. This is because some letters in Arabic are called sun letters, while others are called moon letters. The sun letters are the ones that share the same point of articulation as the letter ل (lam), which is the second letter of the definite article. The moon letters are the ones that have a different point of articulation from the letter ل (lam).

The sun letters are: ت (ta), ث (tha), د (dal), ذ (dhal), ر (ra), ز (zay), س (sin), ش (shin), ص (sad), ض (dad),
