00:00:16,140 --> 00:00:19,460
Today we are going to speak about the prepositions
2
00:00:19,460 --> 00:00:24,140
of English and Arabic This is very tricky subject
3
00:00:24,140 --> 00:00:26,020
since
4
00:00:28,310 --> 00:00:33,210
English has 150 prepositions,
5
00:00:33,650 --> 00:00:41,770
150 prepositions, while Arabic has only 20
6
00:00:41,770 --> 00:00:49,450
prepositions, six of them are widely used. So
7
00:00:49,450 --> 00:00:51,610
there is no equivalence between the prepositions
8
00:00:51,610 --> 00:00:57,500
of English and the prepositions of Arabic. The
9
00:00:57,500 --> 00:01:03,000
meaning is conveyed straightforwardly in Arabic by
10
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,440
using only one preposition. However, the same
11
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,580
meaning can be conveyed in a number of
12
00:01:08,580 --> 00:01:12,920
prepositions in English. So this causes confusion
13
00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:20,410
and makes our students, I mean the Arab students,
14
00:01:20,590 --> 00:01:24,490
to commit serious errors in using prepositions.

00:01:25,070 --> 00:01:28,650
Most of them are interlingual errors. They result
16
00:01:28,650 --> 00:01:34,610
from Arabic. The preposition of English has
17
00:01:34,610 --> 00:01:41,490
semantic function and syntactic function. Semantic
18
00:01:41,490 --> 00:01:46,700
function means it gives a meaning. It refers to
19
00:01:46,700 --> 00:01:51,980
place, time, a position, manner, etc.
20
00:01:54,260 --> 00:01:58,400
Syntactically, it refers to case assignment.
21
00:02:00,740 --> 00:02:04,420
The case I mean nominative, accusative, and
22
00:02:04,420 --> 00:02:08,720
genitive case. Mainly the genitive case and the
23
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:13,380
dative case are assigned by prepositions in a
24
00:02:13,380 --> 00:02:18,980
certain places a language. So we have, for
25
00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:24,240
example, John gave Mary a book. John gave a book
26
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:31,100
to Mary. To Mary, Mary, John here is a subject
27
00:02:31,100 --> 00:02:37,500
assigned nominative case, while book is direct
28
00:02:37,500 --> 00:02:43,640
object assigned accusative case and to Mary, Mary
29
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:48,640
is prepositional object assigned dative case. The
30
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:52,420
dative case is equivalent to accusative case,
31
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:58,060
fatha, but it is assigned by the preposition, the
32
00:02:58,060 --> 00:03:02,420
dative preposition too. At the same time, we have
33
00:03:02,420 --> 00:03:06,400
our other prepositions assigned genitive case,
34
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:13,520
completely like Arabic, kasra. So we have He
35
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,980
arrived in London. This means he dominantly lives
36
00:03:16,980 --> 00:03:22,800
or stays in London. He arrives in London is
37
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:28,540
different from he arrives at London. Okay? At
38
00:03:28,540 --> 00:03:34,080
London means transitional arrival. However, in
39
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:38,940
London means dominant stay
40
00:03:38,940 --> 00:03:43,930
in London. Okay, here he arrived in London or at
41
00:03:43,930 --> 00:03:49,850
London, the prepositional noun London is assigned
42
00:03:49,850 --> 00:03:55,970
genitive case by the prepositions at or in. Most
43
00:03:55,970 --> 00:03:58,750
of the prepositions assign genitive case except
44
00:03:58,750 --> 00:04:04,090
the dative preposition to, which assigns dative
45
00:04:04,090 --> 00:04:08,410
case, which is equivalent to accusative case.
46
00:04:09,970 --> 00:04:16,220
Okay. Semantically, we see that the prepositions
47
00:04:16,220 --> 00:04:21,100
are of different semantic functions. We have
48
00:04:21,100 --> 00:04:27,320
prepositions of time. So we have in, at, on,
49
00:04:28,660 --> 00:04:36,520
after, before, etc. Now in is related to, it
50
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:45,240
precedes months, years, seasons, and parts of the
51
00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:50,300
day. So we have in months, we say in July, in
52
00:04:50,300 --> 00:04:56,580
September. For years, we say in 1985, 1999.
53
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:04,800
Seasons, we say in summer, in the summer of 1969,
54
00:05:05,300 --> 00:05:10,660
for example. We say in the morning, in the
55
00:05:10,660 --> 00:05:15,900
afternoon, in the evening. But if you speak about
56
00:05:15,900 --> 00:05:20,060
very, very specific time, we use at. I say at
57
00:05:20,060 --> 00:05:28,780
noon, at dawn, at sunset. I mean the moment which
58
00:05:28,780 --> 00:05:36,260
refers to the existence of dawn, noon, or sunset.
59
00:05:37,820 --> 00:05:41,340
However, if you speak about long duration, you say
60
00:05:41,340 --> 00:05:44,360
in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening.
61
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:51,680
Okay? Also durations we see in, I say in a minute,
62
00:05:52,240 --> 00:06:00,180
in two weeks, in an hour, in a day, in a month, in
63
00:06:00,180 --> 00:06:09,350
15 days. This is duration. However, at refers to
64
00:06:09,350 --> 00:06:15,670
part of the day, as in we say at night, at six o
65
00:06:15,670 --> 00:06:19,170
'clock, at midnight. We speak about time, not
66
00:06:19,170 --> 00:06:26,290
duration. Also, we refer to celebrations by using
67
00:06:26,290 --> 00:06:32,030
at. At Christmas, at Easter, at Ramadan feast,
68
00:06:32,830 --> 00:06:33,150
etc.
69
00:06:36,780 --> 00:06:40,020
If you speak about fixed phrases, we use also at.
70
00:06:40,900 --> 00:06:44,100
So we say at the same time, not in the same time,
71
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,840
at the same time.
72
00:06:49,540 --> 00:06:55,660
On refers to the days. Days of the week take on.
73
00:06:57,900 --> 00:07:02,080
Dates of the days also take on. I say on Sunday,
74
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:10,020
on Friday, on 25th of December. The date and days
75
00:07:10,020 --> 00:07:15,480
of the week receive on. Special holidays, we say
76
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:20,280
on Good Friday, on Easter Sunday, on my birthday.
77
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:26,860
We mean the day. Okay? If you speak about special,
78
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,140
very special part of the day, I say on the morning
79
00:07:30,140 --> 00:07:35,160
of September. So this is specific, not generic.
80
00:07:35,980 --> 00:07:41,110
Okay? on the morning of September. We see in the
81
00:07:41,110 --> 00:07:45,830
morning. Which morning? In the afternoon. In the
82
00:07:45,830 --> 00:07:49,830
evening. This is generic. However, speaking
83
00:07:49,830 --> 00:07:54,690
specifically about one special morning becomes on.
84
00:07:56,290 --> 00:08:01,150
Okay, you see? On the morning of September the
85
00:08:01,150 --> 00:08:11,100
11th. After refers also to time. I say, after
86
00:08:11,100 --> 00:08:15,620
something happened, later than something happened,
87
00:08:16,020 --> 00:08:17,040
after school,
88
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:21,080
after lecture,
89
00:08:24,300 --> 00:08:31,700
after arrival, after the accident. It refers to
90
00:08:31,700 --> 00:08:36,280
something happening after another thing. Pay
91
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:37,000
attention, please.
92
00:08:40,700 --> 00:08:47,000
Ago. Ago refers to the past. Okay? So it comes
93
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:54,100
after time. Okay? It refers to how far something
94
00:08:54,100 --> 00:08:59,080
happened in the past. Six years ago. Five days
95
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:04,700
ago. Three hours ago. An hour ago. It refers to
96
00:09:04,700 --> 00:09:11,090
past. Past simple. Before, it's the opposite of
97
00:09:11,090 --> 00:09:15,370
after, but it refers to something that happened
98
00:09:15,370 --> 00:09:19,370
earlier than some other things. I say before
99
00:09:19,370 --> 00:09:24,350
Christmas, before Ramadan feast, before Al-Adha
100
00:09:24,350 --> 00:09:33,040
Eid or feast, okay? Between, it refers also to
101
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:38,420
separate two points. I say between Monday and
102
00:09:38,420 --> 00:09:43,320
Friday. So this is a duration of time between.
103
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:50,740
We can use also by referring to time as well. So
104
00:09:50,740 --> 00:09:55,340
we say not later than a special time by Thursday.
105
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:02,040
By Thursday. Okay, they are going to finish the
106
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,820
project or they will have the project finished by
107
00:10:05,820 --> 00:10:11,840
the end of April by the end of April Okay, not
108
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,820
later than a special time. Yeah, not not later
109
00:10:14,820 --> 00:10:21,300
than the end of April Okay During
110
00:10:21,300 --> 00:10:26,960
So it refers to progressive action action will
111
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:32,740
happen during a period of time through the whole
112
00:10:32,740 --> 00:10:36,440
period of time. We say, for example, during the
113
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:42,880
holidays, most of us have picnics to the seashore.
114
00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:46,940
Okay?
115
00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:57,940
During the holidays. For, it refers also to the
116
00:10:57,940 --> 00:11:04,030
period of time. for three weeks. This is duration.
117
00:11:05,110 --> 00:11:13,570
I stay in Gaza for six months. I have stayed in
118
00:11:13,570 --> 00:11:17,090
Gaza for six months. I have stayed in Gaza for
119
00:11:17,090 --> 00:11:22,250
five months. I have stayed in Gaza since last
120
00:11:22,250 --> 00:11:27,050
April. So for refers to duration. While since
121
00:11:27,050 --> 00:11:31,930
refers to time. Okay. They are the key
122
00:11:31,930 --> 00:11:38,970
prepositions used with present perfect Okay,
123
00:11:39,230 --> 00:11:45,910
so I stay I have stayed for three weeks From to
124
00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:52,650
from till until these are our prepositions which
125
00:11:52,650 --> 00:11:58,420
are mainly used to refer to time. Two points from
126
00:11:58,420 --> 00:12:00,980
a period, from Monday to Wednesday, for example.
127
00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:05,900
From two. From Monday till Wednesday. Two is
128
00:12:05,900 --> 00:12:09,400
equivalent to till. From Monday until Wednesday.
129
00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:16,860
Two till until. They are of the same meaning. They
130
00:12:16,860 --> 00:12:20,180
refer to two points from one period to another.
131
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:21,660
From Monday to Wednesday.
132
00:12:25,590 --> 00:12:33,110
Okay. Past. Past as a preposition. It refers to
133
00:12:33,110 --> 00:12:37,330
time of the day. Twenty-three minutes past six.
134
00:12:39,450 --> 00:12:50,270
Okay. Half past six. Okay. So it refers to time,
135
00:12:51,370 --> 00:12:57,280
the clock time. Okay. Since refers to point, not
136
00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:02,780
duration. Specific point. Okay. Point of time. I
137
00:13:02,780 --> 00:13:07,060
say since Monday. I haven't seen them since they
138
00:13:07,060 --> 00:13:12,060
traveled to London. I haven't seen him since he
139
00:13:12,060 --> 00:13:17,020
traveled to Egypt. The time he traveled. The point
140
00:13:17,020 --> 00:13:20,720
of time he traveled. So this is referred to by
141
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,850
using since. Okay.
142
00:13:27,950 --> 00:13:32,570
Till and until also refer to time. I say till
143
00:13:32,570 --> 00:13:35,850
tomorrow, until tomorrow, the same thing.
144
00:13:40,310 --> 00:13:48,590
Too, it also refers to time of the day. Okay. So
145
00:13:48,590 --> 00:13:54,510
we have twenty three minutes to six. Okay. Here we
146
00:13:54,510 --> 00:14:04,050
have to and past past refers to after and to
147
00:14:04,050 --> 00:14:10,690
refers to before okay up to and not more than
148
00:14:10,690 --> 00:14:16,700
special time up to six hours a day within It's
149
00:14:16,700 --> 00:14:20,280
during a period of time, within a day. I will
150
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,500
finish the project within a day, within two days,
151
00:14:24,060 --> 00:14:27,180
within a month, within a year.
152
00:14:33,860 --> 00:14:37,780
These are the propositions of time. So we speak
153
00:14:37,780 --> 00:14:43,670
about different propositions, mainly in, on, at,
154
00:14:43,990 --> 00:14:52,890
for, since, after, before, till, until, ago, past,
155
00:14:53,330 --> 00:15:02,590
to, up to, within, between, during. Okay.
156
00:15:05,450 --> 00:15:10,290
These refer to time. Okay. Now, if you translate
157
00:15:10,290 --> 00:15:14,830
them into Arabic, We speak about nearly 20
158
00:15:14,830 --> 00:15:18,630
prepositions, but if they translated into Arabic,
159
00:15:18,770 --> 00:15:24,850
they can be referred to by using Fi, one, or Men,
160
00:15:25,490 --> 00:15:31,490
two prepositions only versus 20 prepositions in
161
00:15:31,490 --> 00:15:35,430
English. So this faces or this makes difficulty
162
00:15:35,430 --> 00:15:43,030
for your students to translate. And you yourself
163
00:15:43,030 --> 00:15:46,930
commit serious errors in translation, in the use
164
00:15:46,930 --> 00:15:52,050
of prepositions. Which to use? Which to use? On or
165
00:15:52,050 --> 00:15:53,530
in or at?
166
00:15:56,810 --> 00:16:03,570
Between, for example, or among? So it's quite
167
00:16:03,570 --> 00:16:07,530
difficult. You have to understand these
168
00:16:07,530 --> 00:16:10,610
prepositions, their semantic function, their
169
00:16:10,610 --> 00:16:14,870
lexical function, their syntactic function very
170
00:16:14,870 --> 00:16:18,150
perfectly. Okay? And you have to use them
171
00:16:18,150 --> 00:16:22,690
contextually. We have the prepositions of place
172
00:16:22,690 --> 00:16:24,130
and direction.
173
00:16:26,950 --> 00:16:34,520
I traveled from Rafah to Gaza. أسكن في غزة من إلى
174
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:40,620
في Okay, this refers to place in Arabic however in
175
00:16:40,620 --> 00:16:45,260
English we have lots of Prepositions as you see
176
00:16:45,260 --> 00:16:51,260
let's see We sit in the room now. We are in the
177
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:58,960
room Okay The laptop is on the table Okay
178
00:17:02,790 --> 00:17:06,810
Here we have the
179
00:17:06,810 --> 00:17:14,850
duster is under the table, on the table, okay? Now
180
00:17:14,850 --> 00:17:24,390
it's on the board, on the board, okay? If I put it
181
00:17:24,390 --> 00:17:31,640
overhead, it's at top of or in top of sorry in top
182
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:39,420
of okay so we have lots of prepositions of place
183
00:17:39,420 --> 00:17:44,780
in English however in Arabic you have at most
184
00:17:44,780 --> 00:17:48,460
three prepositions this make is this makes
185
00:17:48,460 --> 00:17:53,960
confusion and lead your students to commit serious
186
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:57,020
interlingual errors, not intralingual,
187
00:17:57,540 --> 00:18:01,040

00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:11,340
that is used to connect noun and noun. structure
360
00:34:11,340 --> 00:34:14,520
to another structure in the sentence, I mean
361
00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:20,940
syntactically. The girl is in the garden. The
362
00:34:20,940 --> 00:34:27,950
prepositional object can be Pronoun can be a
363
00:34:27,950 --> 00:34:31,990
pronoun, can be adjective, can be adverb, can be a
364
00:34:31,990 --> 00:34:35,650
clause, can be a gerund. The girl is in the
365
00:34:35,650 --> 00:34:40,170
garden. Ahmed is behind me. This is pronoun. He is
366
00:34:40,170 --> 00:34:48,250
clever at tennis. Clever at. Adjective. Okay. An
367
00:34:48,250 --> 00:34:52,910
adverb. He ran too quickly for his years. I don't
368
00:34:52,910 --> 00:34:57,470
know. I don't care for what you are saying. What
369
00:34:57,470 --> 00:35:01,870
you are saying. I don't care for what you are
370
00:35:01,870 --> 00:35:04,930
saying. What you are saying is a close. We thought
371
00:35:04,930 --> 00:35:08,310
about giving a present. Giving a present is a
372
00:35:08,310 --> 00:35:08,670
gerund.
373
00:35:14,750 --> 00:35:19,760
Now we have The preposition can be used for making
374
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:25,800
phrasal verbs. Take after, get at, run out of, for
375
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:32,620
example. Come into, come in, come out. These are
376
00:35:32,620 --> 00:35:37,380
phrasal verbs. They are also used for making
377
00:35:37,380 --> 00:35:43,100
idiomatic adjectives like grateful to, angry with.
378
00:35:48,100 --> 00:35:50,600
We have also prepositional phrases like the
379
00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,100
soldier fought with great bravery with great
380
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:58,080
bravery Prepositional phrases the man or the men
381
00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:03,080
The man in the brown coat is my friend in the
382
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:10,260
brown coat prepositional phrase Okay however in
383
00:36:10,260 --> 00:36:14,340
Arabic The preposition is a kind of conjunction
384
00:36:14,340 --> 00:36:18,220
that can connect two parts of the sentence with
385
00:36:18,220 --> 00:36:24,740
each other. So they convey a syntactic relation
386
00:36:24,740 --> 00:36:31,260
between noun and verb. This is in Arabic. So we
387
00:36:31,260 --> 00:36:36,360
have وقع الكتاب من أحمد. وقع الكتاب من أحمد. This
388
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,720
is transitive or intransitive verb. intransitive
389
00:36:40,720 --> 00:36:47,180
أخذت الكتابة من علي جلست على البسات وصلت في ساعة
390
00:36:47,180 --> 00:36:52,240
كتبت بالقلم all of these sentences are
391
00:36:52,240 --> 00:36:58,420
intransitive they contain intransitive there also
392
00:36:58,420 --> 00:37:03,520
we have derivational derivations
393
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:07,550
and their phrases In case of having derivation and
394
00:37:07,550 --> 00:37:12,610
their phrases, we have the preposition. In, ana
395
00:37:12,610 --> 00:37:18,610
katibun bilqalam. Katib, this is derived. This is
396
00:37:18,610 --> 00:37:22,410
nominal subject. Ism fa'al. Ana katibun bilqalam.
397
00:37:22,910 --> 00:37:26,550
Alqalamu maktubun bihi. Katib maktub. What do you
398
00:37:26,550 --> 00:37:30,670
call this? These are called derivations. You still
399
00:37:30,670 --> 00:37:31,810
recall morphology.
400
00:37:53,150 --> 00:37:58,770
These are derivations. We use the preposition ب
401
00:37:58,770 --> 00:38:01,670
which is equivalent to في.
402
00:38:04,820 --> 00:38:10,680
we have also abstract meaning or abstract semantic
403
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:18,320
function for the prepositions okay لَيْسَ زَيْدٌ
404
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:23,600
قَائِمٌ حقًا so the meaning is purely abstract
405
00:38:29,410 --> 00:38:32,930
Mostly the preposition as we the preposition in
406
00:38:32,930 --> 00:38:38,150
English Depends on the noun following it. I say on
407
00:38:38,150 --> 00:38:48,550
Sunday in July in winter on the island in London
408
00:38:49,520 --> 00:38:54,360
at school so it depends on the prepositional noun
409
00:38:54,360 --> 00:39:01,100
or the I mean the post noun say that the we have
410
00:39:01,100 --> 00:39:05,540
preposition phrase so the modifier of the of of
411
00:39:05,540 --> 00:39:09,100
the preposition decides the use of this
412
00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:12,580
preposition which preposition we could use it
413
00:39:12,580 --> 00:39:16,740
depends on the modifier following it okay on the
414
00:39:16,740 --> 00:39:21,000
noun following it You see? So this is the
415
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:21,500
proposition.
416
00:39:24,260 --> 00:39:27,500
The story of the proposition, as I mentioned, is
417
00:39:27,500 --> 00:39:32,690
very tricky. it needs more focus more explanation
418
00:39:32,690 --> 00:39:38,270
more use it depends on more practice so the more
419
00:39:38,270 --> 00:39:41,210
you practice prepositions the more you use them
420
00:39:41,210 --> 00:39:44,630
this means that we have to use them contextually
421
00:39:44,630 --> 00:39:48,490
and in situational use next time we are going to
422
00:39:48,490 --> 00:39:51,970
practice using prepositions and we are going to
423
00:39:51,970 --> 00:39:55,330
see your preparations your presentations so please
424
00:39:56,010 --> 00:39:59,710
have your presentations ready for next time for
425
00:39:59,710 --> 00:40:03,010
teaching prepositions and interpreting
426
00:40:03,010 --> 00:40:06,690
prepositions at the same time okay that's it for
427
00:40:06,690 --> 00:40:07,490
today thank you
