Grammar

Learn grammar as a tool for understanding and communicating — not as a list of isolated terms to memorise. Each level connects a small number of grammar patterns to vocabulary, listening, speaking and short reading tasks.

Honest status. The grammar below is taught inside the level lessons, so you meet each pattern in phrases and conversations rather than in isolation. Every level is a beta and has not yet been reviewed by a native speaker. Examples use Modern Standard Arabic; the Gulf word bank is a separate regional list. There are no stand-alone grammar lessons or grammar quizzes yet. Classical grammar (nahw and sarf) is a separate, more academic track, linked below.

Grammar by level

Start with the level you are studying. Each line lists the patterns that level’s lessons introduce.

  • Beta · not yet native-reviewedPre-A1 — no separate grammar yet: fixed phrases for greetings, introductions, numbers and asking for help.
  • Beta · not yet native-reviewedA1 — “this” with hadha (masculine) and hadhihi (feminine), and masculine and feminine forms of “you”, inside nine everyday lessons.
  • Beta · not yet native-reviewedA2 — saying what you did with the “-tu” ending and what you did not do with lam; adjectives that change for masculine and feminine (jadid / jadida); comparing with akbar min; place words and short directions.
  • Beta · not yet native-reviewedB1 — giving a reason with “because” (li’anna) and “so” (fa-); sequence words for telling a story; advice with “must”, “it is better to” and “I suggest”.
  • Beta · not yet native-reviewedB2 — “on one hand … on the other”; fuller comparison (“more … than”, “compared to”, “whereas”); hopes, fears and degrees of certainty; simple conditional sentences with “if”.
  • Beta · not yet native-reviewedC1 — reported speech (“he said that”, “she asked whether”); concession with “although”, “despite” and “nevertheless”; the passive voice; formal requests and apologies.
  • Beta · not yet native-reviewedC2 — hedging (“it seems that”, “most likely”); emphasis and restriction with la … illa, innama and laqad; connectors for a formal argument.

Planned: a short grammar explanation for each pattern, with worked examples, practice tasks and a quiz — added only after the level’s Arabic has been reviewed by a native speaker.
