A word by word translation
Observe the translation in the picture below.
Let's modify the sentence
1st modification : add the fa'il (the doer)
You've learn what is he doing statement in Arabic, now we try to modify the sentence.
How to ask "What is Ahmad doing?"
You can simply add the word Ahmad after verb.
Therefore What is Ahmad doing? in Arabic is "ู
ูุงุฐูุง ููููุนููู ุฃูุญูู
ูุฏูุ"
Let's study one more example. How to ask "What is the student doing?"
By doing the same step like above, you can simply state "ู
ูุงุฐูุง ููููุนููู ุงูุทููุงููุจูุ"
OK, let's start to do some exercise.
Translate the following sentence into Arabic.
1. What is the teacher doing?
2. What is the boy doing?
3. What is the doctor doing?
Answer
1. What is the teacher doing? => ู
ูุงุฐูุง ููููุนููู ุงูู
ูุฏูุฑููุณูุ
2. What is the boy doing? => ู
ูุงุฐูุง ููููุนููู ุงูููููุฏูุ
3. What is the doctor doing? => ู
ูุงุฐูุง ููููุนููู ุงูุทููุจูููุจูุ
2nd modification : modify the fa'il (the doer)
If we change the doer, the consequence is we have to change the verb also.
Why? Because there is an agreement between verb (fi'l) and the doer (fa'il).
Suppose you ask "What is she doing?". In this case, the doer is "she" or ูููู , then you must change the verb to ุชูููุนููู instead of ููููุนููู
So, what is she doing? in Arabic is => ู
ูุงุฐูุง ุชูููุนููู ุ
We will learn more the verb conjugation in sarf lesson, in shaa Allah.
