Maysoor are proud to present the sixth in a series of learning Arabic tutorials. This video explores a basic introduction to the root form of past tense verbs and also covers how to search for a verb (root form) in a modern Arabic - English dictionary; Al Mawrid.

The first section of this video concerning verbs coincides with Lesson 4b from Madinah Book 1, where the author introduced two verbs; tha-ha-ba (he went) and kha-ra-ja (he left/he exited).

This video has been produced in conjunction with Al Madinah Students 2010.

    great videos, may allah reward! i see the root word of verbs in arabic is singular masculine, but how do i use it when it comes to talking about a female, for ex: "she left" like the kharaja word but only feminine instead of it translating " he left". Lol hope that makes sense. Jazakllahu khairan!

  • @UmmSaalih1 BaarakAllaahu feeki Umm Saalih,

    Yes, your questions makes sense! :)

    If you wanted to express the feminine version of this word, you simply add the letter ت at the end of the verb with a sukoon on top.

    For example, if you wanted to say "she left/exited" you wouyld say خرجت pronounced "kha-ra-jat"

    The same is true for other verbs like "Sha-ri-ba" means "he drank", but "Sha-ri-bat" means "she drank".

    I hope this is clear inshaaAllah

    Do you recommend your viewers to purchase al-Mawrid if they are beginners, or is it more suited for intermediate and advanced students?

  • Your videos are great. I'm really happy that you are getting a lot of views.
