In this lesson we will continue practising joining letters and reading, Insha'Allah. We will also practice reading words with:

a) Sukun - We should pronounce the letter sound with no vowel sound i.e. Sukun acts like a stop.

b) Shadda - We should increase emphasis on the letter which has the Shadda.

c) Long vowel-marks - As we learnt in previous lessons there are 3 long vowel-marks, these lengthen the sound of the single vowel-marks.

Meaning	Final Form (i.e. how the letters will look when joined)	Changed Form (i.e. to see how each letter has changed - joined form)	Letters on their Own
Mosque	مَسْجِدٌ	مَـ ـسْـ ـجِـ ـدٌ	مَ سْ جِ دٌ
Star	نَجْمٌ	نَـ ـجْـ ـمٌ	نَ جْ مٌ
Cat	قِطٌ	قِـ ـطٌ	قِ طٌ
Bed	سَرِيْرٌ	سَـ ـر ِيْـ ـرٌ	سَ رِ يْ رٌ
Key	مِفْتَاحٌ	مِـ ـفْـ ـتَا حٌ	مِ فْ تَا حٌ
Donkey	حِمَارٌ	حِـ ـمَا رٌ	حِ مَا رٌ

Insha'Allah, we shall continue practising reading more words in the next lesson. Remember, the more practice you do, the better your Arabic will be Insha'Allah.
