- We are still in lesson twenty three of our free Arabic language course. This Arabic course with images and audios will help you learn Arabic.
- In this section we will learn the Arabic Pronouns, In-Shā’-Allâh (God-willing).
- In the previous lessons we have learned that in Arabic language there are two types of Pronouns namely Attached Pronouns اَلضَّمائِرُ الْمُتَّصِلَةُ and Detached Pronouns اَلضَّمَائِرُ الْمُنْفَصِلَةُ.
- Similar to the English Language, the Arabic Pronouns are divided by 1st. person ( I / We), 2nd. person (You) and 3rd. person (He / She / They).
Example:
Person
Arabic
I / We
1st.
You
2nd.
He / She / They
3rd.
- We can see the detached pronouns that we normally use for the different persons below as well as the attached pronouns which we will cover in more detail below.
