We're on the Fed. Alright, the verb. We talked about the noun.

00:00:05 --> 00:00:08

And now we're going to talk about the verb. The first thing you need

00:00:08 --> 00:00:14

to know about the verb is that all the verb is the heart of, of the

00:00:14 --> 00:00:20

morphology of Arabic or the actual words themselves, okay? And each

00:00:20 --> 00:00:26

word Arabic word is composed of a root, root letters, three root

00:00:26 --> 00:00:30

letters, rarely four and more rarely five root letters, okay?

00:00:30 --> 00:00:34

These root letters are like the DNA of the word, you move around.

00:00:34 --> 00:00:39

Okay? And that could make different words. All right? There

00:00:39 --> 00:00:43

are something called Zoa, which we're pointing at right here. All

00:00:43 --> 00:00:49

right, Zola, Zola ID are additional lead. Alright, so now

00:00:49 --> 00:00:55

let's start. When we talk about verbs, we're talking about and

00:00:55 --> 00:01:01

fill a MALDI the past tense verb, unlike English, the next verse,

00:01:01 --> 00:01:06

the verb is FL and metadata, the present tense which includes Okay,

00:01:07 --> 00:01:11

the future tense, unlike English, where the future is the third

00:01:11 --> 00:01:17

tense No. So in Arabic, it's past present slash future. And third is

00:01:17 --> 00:01:21

Amana command tense, the imperative. Okay, the command

00:01:21 --> 00:01:26

tense. So, you remember that the types of sentences are a couple of

00:01:26 --> 00:01:30

types of sensors, the question, right, which in English, what do

00:01:30 --> 00:01:34

we call the question the interrogative, right? We have the

00:01:34 --> 00:01:37

declarative sentence, which is you're basically telling me

00:01:37 --> 00:01:41

something and usually we use the present tense verb, like yet Gulu

00:01:41 --> 00:01:45

Ahmed trufa. Mad eats the apple, it's a declaration you're telling

00:01:45 --> 00:01:51

me a statement of fact, okay? Or there's the imperative. The order

00:01:51 --> 00:01:56

you're giving a command. Also DUA and requests fall under the

00:01:56 --> 00:01:59

command tense, okay? Or you have your expression,

00:02:00 --> 00:02:04

like, ouch, or Hurray, these are just expressions. They're not

00:02:04 --> 00:02:07

their questions, nor declarations, nor

00:02:08 --> 00:02:12

commands. So those are your basic types of sentences. Now your verbs

00:02:12 --> 00:02:17

are past, present slash future, and then command and we're going

00:02:17 --> 00:02:17
