Moving to Arabic Lesson Two

In the previous lesson you learned about the following word


ضَرَبَ


This word means He struck.


The word is a verb.


Notice the pattern upon which this word is built. It consists of 

• Three letters
• Each letter has the vowel sign fatha on top of it

Whenever you see a word in Arabic which is composed of three letters and each of the three letters has fatha on top of it, you can assume that it is a verb. 


The pronoun He is inherently present in a word formed on this pattern.
