Explicación متوفر in your Level:

At the A1 level, 'متوفر' (mutawaffir) is a key word for survival situations. You will use it primarily to ask if things you need are available. Think of it as the 'shopping word.' You should learn the basic masculine form 'متوفر' and the feminine 'متوفرة'. For example, if you are at a hotel, you might ask 'Hal al-ghurfa mutawaffira?' (Is the room available?). You don't need to worry about complex grammar yet; just focus on the noun-adjective pair. It's also helpful to know 'ghayr mutawaffir' for 'not available.' This level focuses on concrete items: food, rooms, books, and tickets. You will see this word on signs in shops and on simple websites. It helps you understand if you can get what you want.

At the A2 level, you start to use 'متوفر' in more complete sentences and begin to notice gender and number agreement more consistently. You will learn that non-human plurals like 'kutub' (books) or 'shashat' (screens) take the feminine singular 'mutawaffira.' You might say 'Al-kutub mutawaffira fi al-maktaba' (The books are available in the library). You also begin to use it in professional contexts, such as asking about a service: 'Hal khidmat al-Wi-Fi mutawaffira huna?' (Is Wi-Fi service available here?). At this stage, you should also be comfortable using 'lada' (at/with) to specify where something is available: 'Al-tadhakir mutawaffira lada al-shariqa' (The tickets are available at the company).

By the B1 level, you should be able to use 'متوفر' to discuss abstract concepts and more complex scenarios. Instead of just physical objects, you might talk about 'available opportunities' (furas mutawaffira) or 'available information' (ma'lumat mutawaffira). You will encounter the word in news reports and more formal documents. You should also be able to distinguish between 'mutawaffir' and its common synonym 'mutaah' (accessible). For instance, 'Al-ma'lumat mutawaffira' means the info is there, while 'Al-ma'lumat mutaah' might imply you have permission to see it. You will also use it in the past tense: 'Lam yakun mutawaffiran' (It was not available), noting the accusative case 'an' ending after the verb 'kana'.

At the B2 level, your usage of 'متوفر' becomes more nuanced and integrated into formal writing and professional discourse. You will use it to describe economic conditions, such as 'al-siyula al-mutawaffira' (available liquidity) or 'al-mawarid al-bashariyya al-mutawaffira' (available human resources). You understand the morphological connection to the root 'W-F-R' and can use related words like 'tawaffur' (availability) as a noun. For example: 'Nadrus tawaffur al-miyah' (We are studying the availability of water). You are also comfortable with its use in passive-like structures and can participate in debates about resources using this vocabulary with high accuracy and appropriate register.

At the C1 level, 'متوفر' is used with stylistic flair. you understand its place in the broader lexical field of 'abundance' and 'existence.' You can use it in literary analysis or high-level business reports. You might use it in complex conditional sentences: 'Law tawaffarat al-zuru'f al-mulaima...' (If the appropriate conditions were available...). You also recognize its use in classical texts where it might lean more towards 'abundant' than 'available.' Your understanding includes the subtle differences between 'mutawaffir,' 'mustahdar,' and 'muhayya.' You can write essays on socio-economic issues where 'tawaffur al-khidamat' (provision of services) is a central theme, maintaining perfect grammatical agreement and sophisticated sentence structure.

At the C2 level, you have a near-native grasp of 'متوفر.' You can identify its use in various Arabic dialects versus Modern Standard Arabic and adjust your speech accordingly. You understand the historical evolution of the word from the root meaning of 'abundance' to the modern functional meaning of 'availability.' You can use it in legal contracts, philosophical treatises, or poetic prose. You are aware of the most obscure collocations and can use the word to convey irony or specific rhetorical effects. For a C2 learner, 'متوفر' is not just a word for 'available'; it is a versatile tool used to discuss the philosophy of presence, the economics of scarcity, and the nuances of linguistic precision in the Arab world.

متوفر en 30 segundos

Mutawaffir means 'available' or 'in stock' in Arabic.
It is used for products, services, rooms, and abstract things like time.
The feminine form is 'mutawaffira' and the negative is 'ghayr mutawaffir'.
It comes from the root W-F-R, which relates to abundance and plenty.

The Arabic word متوفر (pronounced: mutawaffir) is an essential adjective that every Arabic learner should master early in their journey. At its core, it translates to 'available,' 'obtainable,' or 'provided.' However, its usage is deeply rooted in the concept of abundance and presence within a specific context. Derived from the Arabic root (w-f-r), which relates to plenty or surplus, متوفر suggests that something is not just present, but ready for use or consumption. Whether you are navigating a bustling souq in Cairo, browsing an e-commerce website in Dubai, or asking for a room in a hotel in Amman, this word will be your primary tool for inquiring about the availability of goods and services.

Commercial Context: In the world of trade, mutawaffir is the standard term for 'in stock.' If a shopkeeper says a product is not mutawaffir, it means they are out of stock. Conversely, 'متوفر بكثرة' (mutawaffir bi-kathra) means available in large quantities.

هذا المنتج متوفر في جميع الفروع.
(This product is available in all branches.)

Abstract Availability: Beyond physical items, the word applies to abstract concepts like time, opportunities, or information. For instance, 'الوقت المتوفر' (al-waqt al-mutawaffir) refers to the available time one has to complete a task.

Understanding the nuance of this word requires looking at its morphological form. It is the active participle of the Form V verb 'توفّر' (tawaffara), which means 'to be provided' or 'to be available.' This grammatical structure implies a state of being that has been achieved—the item has been made available for you. In a professional setting, mentioning that 'resources are available' (الموارد متوفرة) uses the feminine form mutawaffira to agree with the plural non-human noun 'resources.'

Digital Usage: On mobile apps and websites, you will frequently see the status 'متوفر' (Online/Available) or 'غير متوفر' (Offline/Unavailable). It is the standard translation for system statuses in modern Arabic UI/UX design.

خدمة التوصيل متوفرة على مدار الساعة.
(Delivery service is available 24/7.)

Finally, it is worth noting the cultural weight of the root. Arabic culture values hospitality and the 'provision' of needs. When someone says something is mutawaffir, they are often reassuring you that your needs can be met. It is a word of reliability and confirmation.

Using متوفر correctly requires attention to gender and number agreement, as it functions as an adjective. In Arabic, adjectives follow the noun they describe and must match in gender (masculine or feminine), number (singular, dual, or plural), and definiteness. Because mutawaffir is a participle, it behaves predictably across these categories.

Gender Agreement: If the subject is masculine (e.g., كتاب - book), use متوفر. If the subject is feminine (e.g., سيارة - car), add a 'ta marbuta' to get متوفرة.

هل الطعام متوفر الآن؟
(Is the food available now?)

When dealing with non-human plurals, which are treated as feminine singular in Arabic grammar, you must use the feminine singular form mutawaffira. For example, 'The books are available' becomes 'الكتب متوفرة'. This is a common point of confusion for English speakers who expect a plural adjective.

Negation: To say something is 'unavailable,' simply place the word 'غير' (ghayr) before the adjective. For example: 'غير متوفر' (unavailable).

عذراً، هذا اللون غير متوفر.
(Sorry, this color is not available.)

In more complex sentences, mutawaffir can be used in the 'Idafa' construction or following a prepositional phrase. For instance, 'متوفر لدى' (mutawaffir lada) means 'available at/with [someone/someplace].' This is very common in advertisements: 'متوفر لدى جميع الموزعين' (Available at all distributors).

Comparative and Superlative: While you don't usually say 'more available' in a simple form, you can say 'الأكثر توفراً' (the most available/abundant) using the noun 'tawaffur' (availability).

هل الغرف متوفرة لشخصين؟
(Are rooms available for two people?)

By practicing these variations, you will be able to describe everything from a Wi-Fi connection to the availability of a doctor or a specific item in a store with grammatical precision.

The word متوفر is ubiquitous in the modern Arab world, bridging the gap between high literature and daily commerce. If you walk into a shopping mall like Mall of the Emirates or Cairo Festival City, you will see this word on almost every price tag or promotional banner. It is the lifeblood of the service industry.

In Customer Service: When calling a helpline, the automated voice might say: 'جميع موظفينا غير متوفرين حالياً' (All our employees are currently unavailable). Here, the plural masculine form mutawaffireen is used for people.

هذا العرض متوفر لفترة محدودة.
(This offer is available for a limited time.)

In the digital sphere, mutawaffir is used in software localization. Look at your phone's settings if the language is set to Arabic. You'll see it in the context of 'Available updates' (التحديثات المتوفرة) or 'Available storage' (المساحة المتوفرة). It is the standard term used by tech giants like Apple, Google, and Microsoft for their Arabic interfaces.

In News and Media: News anchors use it when discussing resources or aid. 'المساعدات الإنسانية متوفرة على الحدود' (Humanitarian aid is available at the border). It conveys a sense of official confirmation.

Travel and tourism also rely heavily on this word. When booking flights or hotels online, 'Available' is always 'متوفر'. If you are looking for a taxi in a ride-sharing app like Careem or Uber, the app will search for 'السيارات المتوفرة' (Available cars).

هل يوجد مقعد متوفر على هذه الرحلة؟
(Is there an available seat on this flight?)

In summary, whether you are dealing with physical goods, digital services, or professional communication, mutawaffir is the professional, clear, and most common way to express that something can be obtained or used.

Even though متوفر is a relatively straightforward word, English speakers and new learners often fall into a few common grammatical and contextual traps. Avoiding these will make your Arabic sound much more natural and precise.

1. Confusing 'Mutawaffir' with 'Mawjud': While both can translate to 'available,' mawjud literally means 'found' or 'present.' Use mawjud for people being physically in a place (e.g., 'Is the manager here?'). Use mutawaffir for things that are ready for use or purchase. Saying 'The milk is present' (الحليب موجود) is okay, but 'The milk is available' (الحليب متوفر) sounds more like it's in stock for sale.

خطأ: المدير متوفر في مكتبه.
Correct: المدير موجود في مكتبه. (The manager is in his office.)

2. Ignoring Gender Agreement: English doesn't change 'available' for gender, but Arabic does. A common mistake is using the masculine mutawaffir for feminine nouns like 'shariqa' (company) or 'khidma' (service).

3. Pluralizing Non-Human Nouns Incorrectly: Learners often try to use the masculine plural mutawaffirun for things like 'books' or 'cars.' Remember: non-human plurals take the feminine singular adjective.

خطأ: الكتب متوفرون.
Correct: الكتب متوفرة. (The books are available.)

4. Overusing it for 'Free Time': While you can say 'waqt mutawaffir,' it's more common to say 'ana fadi' (I am free) in dialect or 'ladayya waqt' (I have time) in MSA. Using mutawaffir for people's personal schedules can sometimes sound a bit robotic or overly formal.

By keeping these four points in mind, you will avoid the most frequent errors and sound like a much more sophisticated Arabic speaker.

Arabic is a language of rich synonyms, and while متوفر is the most common word for 'available,' several alternatives exist depending on the specific nuance you want to convey. Understanding these will help you choose the most appropriate word for your context.

متاح (Mutaah): This is the closest synonym to mutawaffir. However, mutaah often implies that something is 'accessible' or 'permitted.' For example, 'The information is available/accessible to everyone' (المعلومات متاحة للجميع).

هل هذا الخيار متاح لي؟
(Is this option available/accessible to me?)

موجود (Mawjud): As discussed, this means 'present' or 'existing.' It is the go-to word in daily conversation. If you ask a grocer 'Is there bread?', you say 'Fi khubz mawjud?'. It is less formal than mutawaffir.

وافر (Wafir): Coming from the same root, wafir means 'abundant' or 'plentiful.' You use this to describe a large quantity of something, like 'abundant harvest' (محصول وافر). It doesn't mean 'available' in the sense of 'for sale,' but rather describes the volume.

لديه رزق وافر.
(He has an abundant livelihood.)

حاضر (Hadir): This means 'present' or 'ready.' It is often used for people (attending a meeting) or for something that is 'ready to be served' in a very immediate sense.

Choosing the right synonym depends on whether you want to sound formal (mutawaffir), conversational (mawjud), or technical (mutaah). Mastery of these distinctions is a hallmark of an advanced Arabic speaker.

How Formal Is It?

Dato curioso

The root W-F-R is also the basis for the word 'Tawfir' (توفير), which is the standard word for 'savings' in a bank account. So, being 'available' and 'saving' come from the same idea of having plenty!

Preguntas frecuentes

Yes, but it sounds formal. If you say 'Ana mutawaffir,' it sounds like you are a resource available for a job. In daily life, say 'Ana fadi' (I am free).

Mutawaffir is 'in stock/available'. Mutaah is 'accessible/permitted'. You might have a book 'mutawaffir' in a library, but it's not 'mutaah' to you if you don't have a membership.

Use 'Ghayr mutawaffir' (غير متوفر). This is the standard way.

In Arabic, non-human plurals (like books) are treated as feminine singular. So 'Al-kutub mutawaffira'.

Yes, it is understood everywhere, but in very casual speech, people often just say 'fi' (there is) or 'mawjud' (present).

No. It means 'available'. If something is available for free, you say 'mutawaffir majjanan'.

Technically yes, as it comes from the root for abundance, but 'wafir' is better for 'abundant'.

Mutawaffirun (متوفرون).

It is an active participle (ism al-fa'il) acting as an adjective.

Yes, 'al-waqt al-mutawaffir' is common for 'the available time'.
