  • Noun (gender) + Adjective (-o/-i/-u)
  • Plural Noun + Adjective (-a)

أخطاء شائعة

Pustak is neuter, so it needs the -u ending, not the feminine -i.

Wrong: Moti pustak
صحيح: Motu pustak

Plural nouns always take the -a ending regardless of original gender.

Wrong: Moti pustako
صحيح: Mota pustako

Chokro is masculine, so it requires the -o ending.
