Lesson 1 – الدَّرْسُ الأوَّلُ
This is… - هَـٰذَا ...
Revision – مُرَاجَعَةٌ
- In this section we shall cover a number of the Arabic words we have already learnt and we shall learn some new Arabic vocabulary In-Shā'-Allâh (God willing).
- Increase your Arabic vocabulary through the words below, as the more Arabic vocabulary you memorize, the better Arabic language you have.
- You have now completed lesson 1. To summarise, the areas we have covered are:
- The Demonstrative Pronoun - هَـٰذَا 'This is…'
- The particleأَ as in أَهَـٰذَا...؟ i.e. 'Is This a...?'
- The word مَا which means 'what' as inمَا هَـٰذَا؟ - 'What is this?'
- The words for Yes and No - نَعَمْ and لا respectively.
- The word مَنْ which means 'who' as in مَنْ هَـٰذَا؟ - 'Who is this?'
- Several new words - these have to be memorised as vocabulary is very important to learn the Arabic language. The following table shows the new words that we learnt so far in this lesson:
