مفك
مفك 30秒了解
- Mifakk is the Arabic word for screwdriver, a tool used for screws.
- It comes from the root f-k-k, which means to loosen or undo.
- The plural form is 'mifakkat', and it is a masculine noun.
- It is a core A1 vocabulary word for tools and home repairs.
- Morphological Pattern
- The word follows the pattern مِفْعَل (mif'al), which is the standard weight for small or medium-sized tools in Arabic grammar. This pattern helps learners identify other tools; for example, 'mibrad' (file) and 'mishrat' (scalpel) follow the same logic. Understanding this pattern allows a learner to intuitively guess the meaning of unknown words that sound similar.
هل يمكنك إعطائي الـ مفك من فضلك؟ (Can you give me the screwdriver, please?)
- Functional Use
- The mifakk is used specifically for screws (baraghi). If you are hitting a nail, you need a mitraqa (hammer). If you are tightening a bolt, you need a miftah (wrench). Distinguishing these is key for clear communication in a workshop setting.
استخدم الـ مفك المناسب لهذا البرغي. (Use the appropriate screwdriver for this screw.)
- Pluralization
- The plural is مفكات (mifakkāt), which follows the sound feminine plural pattern despite the noun being masculine. This is a common occurrence for non-human masculine nouns in Arabic.
اشتريت مجموعة مفكات جديدة. (I bought a new set of screwdrivers.)
هذا الـ مفك كهربائي. (This screwdriver is electric.)
أين وضعت الـ مفك الصغير؟ (Where did you put the small screwdriver?)
- Verbal Context
- Common verbs that accompany 'mifakk' include istakhdama (to use), ihtaja (to need), bahatha 'an (to look for), and fakka (to unscrew/undo). For example: 'أستخدم المفك لفك البراغي' (I use the screwdriver to unscrew the screws).
أحتاج إلى مفك لفتح هذه اللعبة. (I need a screwdriver to open this toy.)
- Prepositional Use
- The preposition bi- (with/by means of) is often attached to the tool. 'ربطت البرغي بالمفك' (I tightened the screw with the screwdriver). Here, the 'bi' is prefixed directly to 'al-mifakk,' resulting in 'bil-mifakk.'
لا تستخدم السكين، استخدم الـ مفك. (Don't use the knife; use the screwdriver.)
أين صندوق الـ مفكات؟ (Where is the screwdriver box?)
هذا الـ مفك مكسور. (This screwdriver is broken.)
هل هذا مفك يدويا؟ (Is this a manual screwdriver?)
- Action-Oriented Sentences
- When describing an action, you might say: 'قام الميكانيكي بفك المحرك باستخدام مفك قوي' (The mechanic dismantled the engine using a strong screwdriver). This showcases the word in a professional, narrative context.
- The Workshop (Al-Warsha)
- In car repair shops or carpentry workshops, 'mifakk' is a word shouted across the room. Mechanics constantly ask their assistants for a 'mifakk' of a certain size. You might hear: 'ناولني المفك العريض' (Hand me the wide screwdriver).
في الورشة، الـ مفك أداة أساسية. (In the workshop, the screwdriver is an essential tool.)
- Construction Sites
- Electricians and plumbers on construction sites are another primary source of this word. An electrician might say, 'أحتاج مفك فحص للتأكد من الكهرباء' (I need a tester screwdriver to check the electricity). Here, the word is used in a safety-critical context.
يستخدم الكهربائي الـ مفك المعزول. (The electrician uses an insulated screwdriver.)
تعلم الطلاب كيفية استخدام الـ مفك بأمان. (The students learned how to use the screwdriver safely.)
اشترى جاري مفكاً جديداً لسيارته. (My neighbor bought a new screwdriver for his car.)
هل سمعت صوت سقوط الـ مفك؟ (Did you hear the sound of the screwdriver falling?)
- Daily Conversations
- Finally, in everyday life, if something breaks—a kitchen appliance, a remote control, or a toy—the first question is often: 'هل عندنا مفك صغير؟' (Do we have a small screwdriver?). It's a word of utility, problem-solving, and domestic life.
- Pronunciation Pitfalls
- A common pronunciation error is failing to double the 'k' sound at the end. The word has a 'shadda' on the kaf (مفكّ). If you pronounce it with a single 'k,' it might still be understood, but it sounds incomplete. Another mistake is misplacing the initial vowel; it is 'mi-fakk,' not 'ma-fakk.' The 'mi-' prefix is characteristic of the 'Ism al-Ala' (instrument noun) pattern.
خطأ: أعطني المـُـفتاح (بمعنى مفك). صح: أعطني المـِـفك. (Error: Give me the 'miftah' [meaning screwdriver]. Correct: Give me the 'mifakk'.)
- Gender Agreement
- Learners often forget that 'mifakk' is masculine. In the heat of a DIY project, you might say 'al-mifakk al-kabira' (the big screwdriver - feminine), but it must be 'al-mifakk al-kabir' (masculine). Always match your adjectives to the masculine gender of the tool.
خطأ: هذه مفك جيدة. صح: هذا مفك جيد. (Error: This [fem] is a good [fem] screwdriver. Correct: This [masc] is a good [masc] screwdriver.)
خطأ: أصلحت اللعبة مع الـ مفك. صح: أصلحت اللعبة بالـ مفك. (Error: I fixed the toy with [accompanying] the screwdriver. Correct: I fixed the toy with [using] the screwdriver.)
لا تخلط بين الـ مفك والمثقاب. (Don't confuse the screwdriver with the drill.)
تأكد من أن الـ مفك ليس صدئاً. (Make sure the screwdriver is not rusty.)
- Technical Specificity
- Finally, a common mistake is not specifying the type of screwdriver when it matters. In Arabic, calling for just a 'mifakk' when you need a Phillips head might result in being handed a flathead. Learning the terms 'mifakk salib' (cross) and 'mifakk 'adi' (regular) will save you much frustration.
- Mifakk vs. Miftah
- As mentioned, miftah (مفتاح) literally means 'key,' but in mechanical contexts, it refers to a wrench or spanner. The key difference is the object they interact with. A 'mifakk' goes into the head of a screw, while a 'miftah' grips the outer edges of a bolt or nut. In many dialects, 'miftah baraghi' might be used loosely, but 'mifakk' is more precise for screwdrivers.
نستخدم الـ مفك للبراغي والمفتاح للصواميل. (We use the screwdriver for screws and the wrench for nuts.)
- Types of Mifakk
- 1. مفك صليبة (Mifakk Saliba) - Phillips/Cross-head. 'Saliba' means cross.
2. مفك عادي (Mifakk 'Adi) - Flathead/Regular.
3. مفك فحص (Mifakk Fahs) - Voltage tester screwdriver.
4. مفك دقيق (Mifakk Daqiq) - Precision screwdriver (for electronics).
هل تفضل الـ مفك اليدوي أم الكهربائي؟ (Do you prefer a manual or electric screwdriver?)
الـ مفك هو أهم أداة في حقيبتي. (The screwdriver is the most important tool in my bag.)
أبحث عن مفك برأس مغناطيسي. (I am looking for a screwdriver with a magnetic tip.)
هذا الـ مفك لا يناسب هذا البرغي. (This screwdriver does not fit this screw.)
- Comparison Table
- - مفك (Mifakk): Screwdriver (for screws).
- مفتاح (Miftah): Wrench/Key (for bolts/doors).
- زرادية (Zarradiya): Pliers (for gripping/cutting).
- مطرقة (Mitraqa): Hammer (for nails).
How Formal Is It?
趣味小知识
The root f-k-k is the same root used for the word 'jaw' (fakk) in Arabic, perhaps because the jaw is a hinged part that 'opens' the mouth.
发音指南
- Pronouncing it 'ma-fakk' instead of 'mi-fakk'.
- Failing to double the final 'k' sound.
- Confusing it with 'miftah' (key).
- Using a soft 'h' instead of 'k' at the end.
- Adding an extra vowel at the end like 'mifakka'.

أعطني المفك
Miftah means key/wrench; Mifakk means screwdriver. This is the most common tool-related error.

هذا مفك كبير
Mifakk is masculine, so the adjective must be 'kabir' (masculine), not 'kabira' (feminine).
-

أصلحت اللعبة بالمفك
Use the preposition 'bi-' for instruments, not 'ma'' which means 'alongside'.
-

مفكاتي
Actually, 'mifakkat' is correct, but students often try to invent a broken plural like 'mafaki'. Stick to the sound feminine plural.
-
مَفك (Mafakk)

مِفك (Mifakk)
The first vowel is 'i' (kasra), not 'a' (fatha). This is a common pronunciation error.
小贴士
Pattern Recognition
Learn the 'mif'al' pattern. Once you know 'mifakk' is a tool, you'll easily recognize other tools like 'mishrat' (scalpel) or 'mibrad' (file).
The Right Tip
Always specify 'saliba' (cross) or 'adi' (regular) when asking for a screwdriver to avoid getting the wrong one.
The Double K
Make sure to emphasize the 'k' at the end. It's a double consonant, so stay on it for a split second longer.
Toolbox Talk
In a workshop, use 'ناولني' (hand me) followed by 'al-mifakk' for a natural-sounding request.
Regional Variations
If you are in Iraq, try using 'dernafees' to impress the locals, but 'mifakk' is always safe and correct.
Electrician's Tip
Learn the phrase 'mifakk fahs' (tester screwdriver). It's a lifesaver when checking if a wire is live.
Idafa Practice
Use 'sanduq al-mifakkat' (the screwdriver box) to practice your possessive constructions.
Root Power
Connect 'mifakk' to the verb 'fakka' (to loosen). This helps you remember both the tool and the action.
Shadda Importance
When writing, don't forget the shadda (ّ) over the 'k'. It marks the word as a noun of instrument.
Confidence
Even if you forget the specific type, saying 'mifakk' and gesturing will always get the point across!
记住它
记忆技巧
Think 'Me-Fix' (Mifakk). I use the 'Me-Fix' to fix the screw. The 'k' at the end is like the 'click' of a screwdriver fitting into a screw.
视觉联想
Imagine a large letter 'M' shaped like a screwdriver handle, with the 'fakk' part being the long metal shaft and the tip.
Word Web
挑战
Try to find five things in your house that require a 'mifakk' to open, and name them in Arabic.
词源
The word comes from the Arabic root f-k-k, which is found in Semitic languages to mean separating or loosening. The 'mi-' prefix is the standard Arabic way to create a noun of instrument.
原始含义: A tool used for loosening or undoing things.
Semitic / Afroasiatic.文化背景
None. It is a neutral, practical word.
In English, we distinguish between 'screwdriver' and 'wrench,' just as Arabic distinguishes between 'mifakk' and 'miftah.'

常见问题
10 个问题A 'mifakk' is a screwdriver used specifically for screws (baraghi). A 'miftah' is a key or a wrench used for bolts (savamail) or locks. While both involve turning, the shape of the tool and the object they turn are different. In many dialects, 'miftah' is used more broadly, but 'mifakk' is always specific to the screwdriver.
You say 'mifakk saliba' (مفك صليبة). The word 'saliba' comes from 'salib' (cross), referring to the cross-shaped tip of the Phillips head. This is the most common way to describe it across the Arab world.
It is a masculine noun. This means you use masculine demonstratives (hadha) and masculine adjectives (kabir, jadid) with it. However, its plural 'mifakkat' looks like a feminine plural, which is common for non-human masculine nouns in Arabic.
The plural is 'mifakkāt' (مفكات). It follows the sound feminine plural pattern. For example: 'عندي ثلاث مفكات' (I have three screwdrivers).
Yes, but it is better to specify by saying 'mifakk kahraba'i' (مفك كهربائي). In modern contexts, people might also just use the loanword 'drel' for a power drill that acts as a screwdriver.
You say 'mifakk 'adi' (مفك عادي), which literally means 'regular screwdriver.' This distinguishes it from the 'saliba' (cross) type.
It comes from the Arabic root f-k-k (ف-ك-ك), which means to loosen, undo, or dismantle. The 'mi-' prefix makes it a noun of instrument, literally 'the tool for loosening.'
Yes, it is understood everywhere. However, in Iraq and parts of the Gulf, you will often hear 'dernafees' (درنفيس) instead. In Egypt and the Levant, 'mifakk' is the standard term.
You use the verb 'afukku' (أفكُّ). For example: 'أنا أفك البرغي' (I am unscrewing the screw). The tool used is the 'mifakk.'
Yes, you can say 'mifakk daqiq' (مفك دقيق) or 'mifakk sa'at' (watchmaker's screwdriver) for very small tools used in electronics or eyeglass repair.

The Right Tip
Always specify 'saliba' (cross) or 'adi' (regular) when asking for a screwdriver to avoid getting the wrong one.
The Double K
Make sure to emphasize the 'k' at the end. It's a double consonant, so stay on it for a split second longer.
