Hey friend! Ready to take a big step in your Arabic learning journey? I know the phrase irregular verbs might sound a bit scary, but don't worry! In this chapter, we're going to dive into those Arabic verbs that are a little mischievous and change their forms in different tenses. I promise you, once you get the hang of their tricks, you'll see how easy and logical they actually are.
In this lesson, you'll learn how some verbs, like "wa'ada" (to promise), lose their initial 'waw' in the present tense to make pronunciation smoother. Or verbs like qaala (to say) and kaana (to be) which have an 'alif' in the middle – how they suddenly drop that 'alif' in the past tense and replace it with another sound, making your speech sound more natural. The super important "ja'a" (to come) is also here; you'll learn how its form changes for I came or you came. Finally, we'll tackle verbs like mashaa (to walk) whose last letter seems shy and disappears in certain situations!
Why does this matter? Because these are some of the most commonly used verbs in Arabic! Imagine you want to say
I came to the appointment,or
What did he say?or
Where were you yesterday?Without these, you'd be stuck. After this chapter, you'll be able to confidently say "ji'tu
(I came), qultu (I said), and kuntu" (I was), and speak about your daily life in Arabic much more easily. You'll see how these small changes make your language more fluent and professional. So, let's go and master these exciting skills together!

아랍어 속이 빈 동사: '이다'와 '말하다' (kāna & qāla)과거형으로 말할 때, '나'나 '너'처럼 주어를 나타내는 어미를 붙이면 비어있는 동사의 중간 «알리프»를 빼야 자연스러워요. 핵심은 «알리프» «제거»!

불규칙 동사: Jā'a (오다)기억하세요! 과거형에서 '나', '너', '우리'를 말할 때
جاءَ는 «جِـ» (지-)로 바뀌어요. 예를 들면, '내가 왔다'는 «جِئْتُ»처럼요. -

Quick FAQ
What is the easiest way to remember Arabic irregular verbs for A1 learners?
Focus on learning the most common irregular verbs like kaana, qaala, and ja'a in their basic past and present tense forms. Repetition and using them in simple sentences are key.
Why do some Arabic verbs lose their initial 'waw' in the present tense?
This is a phonological rule in Arabic grammar to make pronunciation smoother and more fluid, a characteristic of assimilated verbs (Al-Mithal).
How can I practice hollow verbs like to be and to say in A1 Arabic?
Practice conjugating kaana and qaala in the past tense with different pronouns (I was, you were, he was, etc.) and in simple sentences like I was tired or He said hello.
What's the difference between defective verbs and hollow verbs in Arabic grammar?
Defective verbs have a weak letter at the end (like alif, waw, or yaa), which can disappear or change in conjugations. Hollow verbs have a weak letter in the middle.

Review Summary
- Root w-x-y -> x-y in present
- Root x-aa-y -> x-u-suffix
- kaana -> kuntu, qaala -> qultu
- jaa'a -> ji'tu
- Root x-y-aa -> x-y-suffix
자주 하는 실수
You don't need to keep the alif when adding the suffix. It shortens to a vowel sound.
Remember, the Waw vanishes only in the present tense, not the past.
The verb 'to come' is highly irregular; the middle vowel turns into an 'i' sound.
