 Simple Noun Conjugation with Pronouns
Let’s begin with a little vocabulary:

I َ‫أ‬
We ‫َْﳓ ُﻦ‬
Now, let’s see how the two Arabic pronouns mentioned above can be used to put together some
simple nominal sentences:

plural ‫ا ْﳉَ ْﻤ ُﻊ‬ dual ‫اﻟ ُْﻤﺜَ ﱠﲎ‬ singular ‫اﻟ ُْﻤ ْﻔ َﺮ ُد‬
‫ُم ْسلِﻤﻮ َن‬ ‫َْﳓ ُﻦ‬ ِ ِ‫َْﳓﻦ مسل‬
‫ﻤﺎن‬ ُُْ ‫أَ َ ُم ْسلِ ٌم‬ ‫اﻟ ُْﻤ َﺬ ﱠﻛﺮ‬
Masculine

‫ﻤﺎت‬ ِ ِ ‫َْﳓﻦ مسلِﻤ‬ ٌ‫أَ َ ُم ْسلِ َﻤﺔ‬ ‫اﻟ ُْﻤ َﺆﻧﱠﺚ‬

ٌ ‫ُم ْسل‬ ‫َْﳓ ُﻦ‬ ‫ﺘﺎن‬ َ ُُْ Feminine

Ice-breaker: Let’s copy the above examples in the table below (exactly as you see them):

plural ‫ا ْﳉَ ْﻤ ُﻊ‬ dual ‫اﻟ ُْﻤﺜَ ﱠﲎ‬ singular ‫اﻟ ُْﻤ ْﻔ َﺮ ُد‬
‫اﻟ ُْﻤ َﺬ ﱠﻛﺮ‬
Masculine

‫اﻟ ُْﻤ َﺆﻧﱠﺚ‬

Feminine

Great. Now let’s see if we can take what we just learned and apply it to a new word:

‫ﺐ‬ ِ
plural ‫ا ْﳉَ ْﻤ ُﻊ‬ dual ‫اﻟ ُْﻤﺜَ ﱠﲎ‬ singular ‫اﻟ ُْﻤ ْﻔ َﺮ ُد‬ ٌ ‫ﻛﺎﺗ‬
