Gramática que debes saber

Nouns in Arabic can be masculine or feminine. The word أَرْض (ʾarḍ) is feminine.

الأَرْضُ جَمِيلَةٌ (Al-ʾarḍu jamīlatun) - The earth is beautiful.

Nouns in Arabic have three cases: nominative (marfūʿ), accusative (manṣūb), and genitive (majrūr). The ending of the noun changes based on its case. In the nominative case, أَرْض (ʾarḍ) often ends with a ḍamma.

هَذِهِ أَرْضٌ خَصْبَةٌ (Hādhihi ʾarḍun khaṣbah) - This is fertile land.

When a definite article (ال-) is added to a noun, it makes the noun specific. The word أَرْض (ʾarḍ) becomes الأَرْض (al-ʾarḍ) when definite.

رَأَيْتُ الأَرْضَ مِنْ بَعِيدٍ (Raʾaytu al-ʾarḍa min baʿīd) - I saw the earth from afar.

To express 'on the ground' or 'on the land', you use the preposition عَلَى (ʿalā) followed by the noun in the genitive case. For أَرْض (ʾarḍ), it would be عَلَى الأَرْضِ (ʿalā al-ʾarḍi).

الْكِتَابُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ (Al-kitābu ʿalā al-ʾarḍi) - The book is on the ground.

The plural of أَرْض (ʾarḍ) is أَرَاضٍ (ʾarāḍin) or أَرْضُونَ (ʾarḍūn). The first plural form is more common.

تَشْتَمِلُ الْقَارَّةُ عَلَى عِدَّةِ أَرَاضٍ (Tashtamilu al-qārratu ʿalā ʿiddati ʾarāḍin) - The continent includes several lands.
