00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,640
Bismillahirrahmanirrahim Today, inshallah, we are

2
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,020
going to continue with definiteness and

3
00:00:20,020 --> 00:00:23,400
indefiniteness in English and Arabic. Last time,

4
00:00:23,420 --> 00:00:25,980
we spoke about definiteness and indefiniteness in

5
00:00:25,980 --> 00:00:31,300
English, and we just touched Arabic a little bit.

6
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,420
Today, we are going to go deeply on Arabic

7
00:00:34,420 --> 00:00:37,640
definiteness and indefiniteness. And we are going

8
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:40,480
to start with the use of indefinite article in

9
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:41,440
standard Arabic.

10
00:00:46,510 --> 00:00:49,070
The indefinite article or the definite article

11
00:00:49,070 --> 00:00:52,430
precedes the nouns in Arabic completely like

12
00:00:52,430 --> 00:00:54,030
English, okay?

13
00:00:58,070 --> 00:01:04,610
The indefinite article, first of all, is zero in

14
00:01:04,610 --> 00:01:08,590
Arabic according to some grammarians. Still some

15
00:01:08,590 --> 00:01:13,510
others believe that the nonation is indefinite

16
00:01:13,510 --> 00:01:19,980
article. رأيت ولدًا يمشي في الشارع I saw a boy

17
00:01:19,980 --> 00:01:28,660
walking at the street okay a boy ولدًا so the

18
00:01:28,660 --> 00:01:34,560
notation n is considered as indefinite article in

19
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,540
Arabic according to some grammarians still some

20
00:01:37,540 --> 00:01:40,720
others believe that the indefiniteness in Arabic

21
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,540
is zero anyway

22
00:01:47,390 --> 00:01:49,830
To introduce indefinite nouns which refer to

23
00:01:49,830 --> 00:01:52,770
objects mentioned for the first time in this

24
00:01:52,770 --> 00:01:56,910
course The object in the sentence which are

25
00:01:56,910 --> 00:01:59,010
mentioned which is mentioned for the first time in

26
00:01:59,010 --> 00:02:02,330
the sentence Must be preceded by the indefinite

27
00:02:02,330 --> 00:02:10,730
article كان هناك ملك يدعى شهريار Okay

28
00:02:17,590 --> 00:02:22,630
Malikun. It is indefinite because it is mentioned

29
00:02:22,630 --> 00:02:27,290
for the first time. Once upon a time there was a

30
00:02:27,290 --> 00:02:31,570
king called Shahrayar. A king. It is the same like

31
00:02:31,570 --> 00:02:32,050
English.

32
00:02:41,810 --> 00:02:46,290
Now the indefinite noun Standing as a predicate in

33
00:02:46,290 --> 00:02:49,930
the sentence must be preceded by also by

34
00:02:49,930 --> 00:02:59,010
indefinite article البيت كبير كبير is a noun okay

35
00:02:59,010 --> 00:03:04,410
it's a predicate and

36
00:03:04,410 --> 00:03:06,870
is preceded by the indefinite article

37
00:03:10,130 --> 00:03:14,030
The nouns here are mainly verbal nouns used as

38
00:03:14,030 --> 00:03:21,870
adjectives It

39
00:03:21,870 --> 00:03:26,550
is

40
00:03:26,550 --> 00:03:33,470
predicate عالم comes from يعلم this is verb okay

41
00:03:35,420 --> 00:03:39,180
and works here as a predicate it is preceded by

42
00:03:39,180 --> 00:03:42,820
the indefinite article it's preceded by the

43
00:03:42,820 --> 00:03:47,660
indefinite article a which is zero or you can

44
00:03:47,660 --> 00:03:56,340
consider it the donation on names of

45
00:03:56,340 --> 00:04:01,250
professions as we mentioned previously okay I say,

46
00:04:01,390 --> 00:04:04,250
for example, once I translate the sentence, the

47
00:04:04,250 --> 00:04:07,510
previous sentence, البيت كبير. How could I

48
00:04:07,510 --> 00:04:11,790
translate it into English? The house is big. Okay.

49
00:04:11,870 --> 00:04:18,010
It's different from English. البيت كبير. Okay. Big

50
00:04:18,010 --> 00:04:22,330
is an adjective in English. كبير is a predicate in

51
00:04:22,330 --> 00:04:26,230
Arabic preceded by the indefinite article or it

52
00:04:26,230 --> 00:04:32,940
has the indefinite article. Zayd is a scientist

53
00:04:32,940 --> 00:04:36,700
because this is a profession. I told you that

54
00:04:36,700 --> 00:04:40,060
professions and handicrafts are preceded by the

55
00:04:40,060 --> 00:04:43,260
indefinite article in English. It is the same in

56
00:04:43,260 --> 00:04:43,780
Arabic.

57
00:04:50,940 --> 00:04:52,920
We mentioned that in English, we have the

58
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:56,360
professions, the handicrafts and religions are

59
00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,260
preceded by A or N. In Arabic, we have the same

60
00:05:00,260 --> 00:05:04,480
thing. We have zero indefinite article or the

61
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:11,640
nonation on. Zaydun najjarun. Hindun tabibatun.

62
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:20,070
Hind is a lady doctor. Zayd is a junior. A joiner,

63
00:05:20,170 --> 00:05:22,030
sorry. Zaid is a joiner.

64
00:05:28,350 --> 00:05:33,230
Now, you have the nouns preceded directly by a

65
00:05:33,230 --> 00:05:38,990
particle A, the question particle A or A, okay?

66
00:05:40,230 --> 00:05:44,130
And the negative particle Ma. The noun following

67
00:05:44,130 --> 00:05:52,690
them is always Indefinite أي كتاب قرأت؟ What book

68
00:05:52,690 --> 00:05:57,430
did you study? What book did you study? We can't

69
00:05:57,430 --> 00:06:01,910
say What a book did you study? What book did you

70
00:06:01,910 --> 00:06:06,490
study? This is English however in Arabic أي or أ

71
00:06:06,490 --> 00:06:09,670
أقرأت؟

72
00:06:09,670 --> 00:06:13,250
Okay Or

73
00:06:13,250 --> 00:06:17,940
ما these question particles are followed by nouns

74
00:06:17,940 --> 00:06:20,980
if followed by nouns they must these nouns must be

75
00:06:20,980 --> 00:06:29,620
indefinite أي كتاب قرأت؟ now

76
00:06:29,620 --> 00:06:34,420
once you have nouns expressing wishes they must be

77
00:06:34,420 --> 00:06:35,100
indefinite

78
00:06:45,420 --> 00:06:50,280
Iqamatun jameelatun Okay, I say in English have a

00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:55,180
nice day Have a nice day. We mentioned that we

80
00:06:55,180 --> 00:07:00,300
have the indefiniteness A or N preceding Wishing

81
00:07:00,300 --> 00:07:03,700

jameelatun

84
00:07:15,260 --> 00:07:19,340
We have also adverbs of circumstances الحال in

85
00:07:19,340 --> 00:07:24,600
Arabic and cognate objects المفعول لأجله which are

86
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:28,520
always assigned accusative case along with noun

87
00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:34,560
specification تميز الحال

88
00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:41,280
and المفعول لأجله in Arabic have indefiniteness

89
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:53,890
جاء الرجل مبتسمًا مبتسما The man came smiling ضرب

90
00:07:53,890 --> 00:08:02,450
المعلم الولد ضرب مبرح ضرب

91
00:08:02,450 --> 00:08:08,070
مبرح ضرب المعلم الولد ضرب

92
00:08:21,590 --> 00:08:22,590
Okay.

93
00:08:25,370 --> 00:08:30,850
The teacher hit the boy severely. So you have

94
00:08:30,850 --> 00:08:34,450
three

95
00:08:34,450 --> 00:08:38,750
elements, adverbs of circumstances, الحال, cognate

96
00:08:38,750 --> 00:08:42,750
object, مفعول لأجله and

97
00:08:44,090 --> 00:08:48,630
Tamiz, nouns of specification, are always preceded

98
00:08:48,630 --> 00:08:51,670
by the indefinite article which is either zero or

99
00:08:51,670 --> 00:08:52,210
nonational.

100
00:08:57,830 --> 00:09:02,590
We have the indefinite article in Arabic is used

101
00:09:02,590 --> 00:09:07,050
directly after ربّة

102
00:09:14,060 --> 00:09:17,680
These here are assigned genitive case because you

103
00:09:17,680 --> 00:09:22,440
know we have three cases in Arabic Nominative

104
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,480
accusative and genitive and the nomination can be

105
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:31,060
nominative can be accusative can be genitive ولد

106
00:09:31,060 --> 00:09:44,030
ولد ولد okay رب ضارة نافع رب ضارة نافع ربّة the

107
00:09:44,030 --> 00:09:49,450
noun following it is indefinite here ضارة okay

108
00:09:49,450 --> 00:09:56,350
perhaps a disaster is useful also the

109
00:09:56,350 --> 00:10:00,590
indefiniteness is used with some idiomatic terms

110
00:10:00,590 --> 00:10:05,590
in Arabic now

111
00:10:05,590 --> 00:10:09,690
we have the definite article in standard Arabic it

112
00:10:09,690 --> 00:10:13,010
refers to part Whole relationship.

113
00:10:19,530 --> 00:10:23,810
Part-whole relationship. When a part of entity

114
00:10:23,810 --> 00:10:26,710
becomes definite in the speaker's mind due to the

115
00:10:26,710 --> 00:10:31,950
effect of situational setting. Okay, an example

116
00:10:31,950 --> 00:10:36,370
for convenience is represented below. Look, افتح

117
00:10:36,370 --> 00:10:42,190
الراديو من فضلك. Radio here is part, whole

118
00:10:42,190 --> 00:10:46,870
relationship. It represents an entity. It is seen,

119
00:10:46,970 --> 00:10:50,230
it is known by the speaker and the listener. So it

120
00:10:50,230 --> 00:10:54,550
is preceded by the indefinite article. Okay? Open

121
00:10:54,550 --> 00:10:57,410
the radio please. It is the same like English. We

122
00:10:57,410 --> 00:11:00,170
don't say open radio please. Open the radio

123
00:11:00,170 --> 00:11:04,570
because you see it is visible. Okay? افتح الراديو

124
00:11:04,570 --> 00:11:05,250
من فضلك.

125
00:11:11,270 --> 00:11:14,990
Any noun previously mentioned in the paragraph or

126
00:11:14,990 --> 00:11:17,250
in this course must be preceded by the definite

127
00:11:17,250 --> 00:11:30,710
article Okay,

128
00:11:32,290 --> 00:11:35,090
first of all, it is indefinite now once I repeat

129
00:11:35,090 --> 00:11:41,530
it becomes الفلم كان الفيلم شيقا جدا I watched a

130
00:11:41,530 --> 00:11:47,570
film in the TV. The film was very interesting It's

131
00:11:47,570 --> 00:11:56,470
like English a film then the film The

132
00:11:56,470 --> 00:12:01,250
noun preceding the relative pronoun or adjectival

133
00:12:01,250 --> 00:12:07,710
clauses are always definite in Arabic عاد

134
00:12:07,710 --> 00:12:16,690
الرجل الذي سافر إلى لندن I can't say عاد الرجل عاد

135
00:12:16,690 --> 00:12:22,190
الرجل الذي الذي is complementizer is relative

136
00:12:22,190 --> 00:12:26,530
clause it is like English the man who traveled to

137
00:12:26,530 --> 00:12:36,850
London came back the

138
00:12:36,850 --> 00:12:43,100
physical stimulus cases have the definite article

139
00:12:43,100 --> 00:12:50,400
هذا

140
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,840
الرجل جاء لزيارة يعني if you have the

141
00:12:54,840 --> 00:13:01,020
demonstrative pronoun هذا الرجل جاء لزيارة this is

142
00:13:01,020 --> 00:13:06,320
physical stimulus يعني you see a رجل it is seen I

143
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:10,410
mean the object is seen here هذا الرجل any seen

144
00:13:10,410 --> 00:13:14,510
object must have the definite article هذا الرجل

145
00:13:14,510 --> 00:13:18,570
جاء لزيارتي. The man came to visit us. This man

146
00:13:18,570 --> 00:13:20,970
came to visit us and we have a difference here

147
00:13:20,970 --> 00:13:26,290
between Arabic and English هذا الرجل what do you

148
00:13:26,290 --> 00:13:30,230
call about what do you call هذا this that these

149
00:13:30,230 --> 00:13:33,990
those what do you call this demonstrative pronoun

150
00:13:33,990 --> 00:13:38,290
okay it is followed by the definite article how

151
00:13:38,290 --> 00:13:41,010
could you translate it into Arabic into English

152
00:13:41,010 --> 00:13:46,200
this the man or this man so this means that in

153
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:51,060
English we have a determiner phrase this man this

154
00:13:51,060 --> 00:13:54,960
is a determiner demonstrative pronoun however in

155
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,800
Arabic we have هذا الرجل هذا is determiner

156
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:05,660
demonstrative pronoun الرجل is another phrase okay

157
00:14:05,660 --> 00:14:10,740
we call it article phrase So in Arabic, we have

158
00:14:10,740 --> 00:14:14,120
the DB or the terminal phrase followed by an

159
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,680
article phrase. Okay, once you have the sentence

160
00:14:17,680 --> 00:14:21,880
beginning with a demonstrative pronoun. However,

161
00:14:21,900 --> 00:14:25,260
in English, once you translate, you only have the

162
00:14:25,260 --> 00:14:29,260
terminal phrase, this man, I can't say this, the

163
00:14:29,260 --> 00:14:32,320
man, this man. Okay.

164
00:14:35,470 --> 00:14:38,770
So we have here an article, a phrase that is not

165
00:14:38,770 --> 00:14:42,290
available in English. It is called article phrase.

166
00:14:42,850 --> 00:14:44,950
However, in English, we have what is called

167
00:14:44,950 --> 00:14:48,690
determinal phrases, which include the definite and

168
00:14:48,690 --> 00:14:52,670
indefinite articles a and the. Okay.

169
00:15:00,050 --> 00:15:04,090
So this

170
00:15:04,090 --> 00:15:04,390
is

171
00:15:07,220 --> 00:15:10,520
the indefinite and definite articles in Arabic.

172
00:15:10,940 --> 00:15:15,780
They are the same or nearly similar to English

173
00:15:15,780 --> 00:15:20,000
except the zero article which is translated, which

174
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:24,200
is, so any sentence is zero in English must be,

175
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:27,040
any zero article in English is translated to

176
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:35,660
mostly the التعريف in Arabic, okay? We speak about

177
00:15:35,660 --> 00:15:40,520
diseases. They are zero. Days. Months. Sports.

178
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,360
They are zero in English. Meals. The three times

179
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:51,140
of the day. Morning. Noon. Sunset. Night. I say at

180
00:15:51,140 --> 00:15:57,040
night. So these are translated into Alit Ta'rif in

181
00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:02,160
Arabic. Now how could you teach articles to your

182
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:06,220
students? They are tricky. And you can see that

183
00:16:06,220 --> 00:16:09,040
they are very tricky for the Arab learners because

184
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:12,040
we have differences that may cause negative

185
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,820
interference resulting into interlingual errors or

186
00:16:15,820 --> 00:16:16,840
interlingual errors.

187
00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:23,460
Interlingual errors.

188
00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:32,500
Now we

189
00:16:32,500 --> 00:16:35,490
come to teaching articles. Okay.

190
00:16:39,150 --> 00:16:46,050
Teaching must be contextual. Okay. Because giving

191
00:16:46,050 --> 00:16:52,570
your students such a subject with its very overt

192
00:16:52,570 --> 00:16:55,390
name, very clear name, definiteness and

193
00:16:55,390 --> 00:16:58,230
indefiniteness is very difficult for the junior

194
00:16:58,230 --> 00:17:03,470
classes or intermediate or even advanced. Okay. if

195
00:17:03,470 --> 00:17:06,390
you teach them in a formal way becomes very

196
00:17:06,390 --> 00:17:08,790
complicated however you have to teach them

197
00:17:08,790 --> 00:17:12,370
contextually okay connecting between the context

198
00:17:12,370 --> 00:17:17,230
and the discourse so teaching pay attention please

199
00:17:17,230 --> 00:17:22,490
teaching must be inductive or deductive must be

200
00:17:22,490 --> 00:17:26,010
inductive so you have to teach inductively instead

201
00:17:26,010 --> 00:17:32,300
of deductively making use of the situation and the

202
00:17:32,300 --> 00:17:39

223
00:19:10,110 --> 00:19:14,270
linguistics. A book. Is this specific or generic?

224
00:19:16,550 --> 00:19:20,750
Specific. I'd like to read a book in linguistics.

225
00:19:22,090 --> 00:19:29,430
Generic. Okay. We have Language Log Activity Test.

226
00:19:31,370 --> 00:19:36,110
The Language Log Activity Test. Here, you have to

227
00:19:36,110 --> 00:19:42,330
give homework, and you are not to give everything

228
00:19:42,330 --> 00:19:46,170
to your students in the class. You have to let

229
00:19:46,170 --> 00:19:51,570
them deduce the rules of articles, either A or the

230
00:19:51,570 --> 00:20:00,480
or whatever. Okay? Here, you can introduce the

231
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:05,940
language log this language log exercise is given

232
00:20:05,940 --> 00:20:10,100
as assignment to your students it is to be given

233
00:20:10,100 --> 00:20:16,840
at home as homework you introduce wrong sentences

234
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:22,460
either the wrong sentences which the students

235
00:20:22,460 --> 00:20:26,800
commit during the class, or you can just write

236
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:31,560
sentences with wrong articles, for example. Okay?

237
00:20:32,100 --> 00:20:37,200
Then you ask your students to discover the error.

238
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:44,800
Okay? Say, the research, for example. Research is

239
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:49,680
without the. Okay, so they underline that this is

240
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:55,400
the error then the rule Okay, why does research?

241
00:20:56,620 --> 00:21:03,180
Cannot cannot take article Okay, so because it is

242
00:21:03,180 --> 00:21:10,250
uncountable now Okay Here we have it with zero

243
00:21:10,250 --> 00:21:14,290
article. Now you have another space for

244
00:21:14,290 --> 00:21:18,810
correction. You say research. Okay. Then you write

245
00:21:18,810 --> 00:21:22,570
the sentence, the correct sentence, the correct

246
00:21:22,570 --> 00:21:32,050
sentence. I have a son and the daughter. Okay. I

247
00:21:32,050 --> 00:21:36,690
have to say, so the mistake is in the. You give

248
00:21:36,690 --> 00:21:39,690
the rule. The noun mentioned for the first time is

249
00:21:39,690 --> 00:21:45,050
always indefinite. Okay? Once repeated, it is

250
00:21:45,050 --> 00:21:49,930
preceded by the. Okay? So I have a son and a

251
00:21:49,930 --> 00:21:54,410
daughter. This is done at home. So your students

252
00:21:54,410 --> 00:21:58,730
can rely on their parents at home, can rely on

253
00:21:58,730 --> 00:22:05,170
anyone. Okay? The family to help them or even

254
00:22:05,170 --> 00:22:10,110
their friends. So they can pay sufficient efforts

255
00:22:10,110 --> 00:22:13,290
at home for understanding the rules because you

256
00:22:13,290 --> 00:22:17,790
are not allowed to give rules in the class. Okay?

257
00:22:18,090 --> 00:22:21,470
Because you teach communicatively and the focus is

258
00:22:21,470 --> 00:22:27,130
on address rather than giving rules. Okay? So you

259
00:22:27,130 --> 00:22:30,170
ask your student to deduce rules at home.

260
00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:39,680
Okay. Fine.

261
00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:48,240
So we have the

262
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:52,440
articles. Now I'd like to introduce some sentences

263
00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:56,320
for you to answer to check your understanding.

264
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:05,600
Can you pass sugar, please? The sugar. Why?

265
00:23:05,740 --> 00:23:12,100
Because this is visible. Okay? He's sailing up

266
00:23:12,100 --> 00:23:19,260
the Nile for holidays. Nile. He's sailing up the Nile for

267
00:23:19,260 --> 00:23:24,570
holidays. The Nile. Why? Because we told you that

268
00:23:24,570 --> 00:23:28,890
seas, oceans, and rivers are preceded by the

269
00:23:28,890 --> 00:23:34,130
definite article, the. My favorite sea is

270
00:23:34,130 --> 00:23:37,770
the Mediterranean Sea. The Mediterranean Sea.

271
00:23:40,910 --> 00:23:46,630
I'd love to visit Jerusalem. Jerusalem. Country,

272
00:23:46,790 --> 00:23:52,400
country. So proper nouns, proper nouns,

273
00:23:52,500 --> 00:23:56,340
geographical names are always zero except, except

274
00:23:56,340 --> 00:24:00,280
we say the Sudan or any compound noun.

275
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:13,140
He is the man who lives next door. He is the man who

276
00:24:13,140 --> 00:24:23,510
lives next door. okay because he is known yes we

277
00:24:23,510 --> 00:24:27,530
have the relative clause who then we have a man

278
00:24:27,530 --> 00:24:31,390
preceding it so we have either the it can be a or

279
00:24:31,390 --> 00:24:37,710
n but mostly the okay i have been looking for work

280
00:24:37,710 --> 00:24:46,520
for a long time i have been looking for work Or a

281
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:51,800
work or the work. A work. Or work or the work.

282
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:53,980
Work. It is zero.

283
00:24:57,080 --> 00:25:06,840
I say work.

284
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:12,580
This is uncountable. This is abstract now. Okay?

285
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:20,000
It is generic. I am looking for any work. Okay. I

286
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,300
say London Zoo. Do they say the London Zoo or

287
00:25:23,300 --> 00:25:28,060
London Zoo? London Zoo. It is zero. Lake Victoria.

288
00:25:28,780 --> 00:25:36,680
The lake Victoria. Lake is very large. The lake is

00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:42,380
very large. I say London Zoo. It is zero. British

why?

292
00:25:51,450 --> 00:25:57,950
Because it is very famous and known for both the

293
00:25:57,950 --> 00:26:00,610
speaker and the listener. Like once I say, for

294
00:26:00,610 --> 00:26:04,570

both the speaker and the listener.
