فَالَّذِي يُعْرَبُ بِالْحَرَكَاتِ أَرْبَعَةُ أَنْوَاعٍ: الاِسْمُ الْمُفْرَدُ، وَجَمْعُ التَّكْسِيرِ، وَجَمْعُ الْمُؤَنَّثِ السَّالِمُ، وَالْفِعْلُ الْمُضَارِعُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَتَّصِلْ بِآخِرِهِ شَيْءٌ.

There are four types of words inflected with vowels: the singular noun, the broken plural, the sound feminine plural, and the imperfect verb that has nothing attached to its end.

نَزِيدُ: لَمْ يَتَّصِلْ بِآخِرِهِ شَيْءٌ، وَلَيْسَ مَبْنِيًّا.

We must add: nothing is attached to its end, and it is not indeclinable.

الَّذِي يُعْرَبُ بِالْحَرَكَاتِ، هَذِهِ الْأَنْوَاعُ الْأَرْبَعَةُ وَالدَّلِيلُ: التَّتَبُّعُ وَالاسْتِقْرَاءُ، فَإِنَّنَا تَتَبَّعْنَا كَلَامَ الْعَرَبِ، وَلَمْ نَجِدْ مِنْ كَلَامِهِمْ شَيْئًا يُعْرَبُ بِالْحَرَكَاتِ إِلَّا هَذِهِ الْأَنْوَاعَ الْأَرْبَعَةَ.

These four types are the only ones inflected with vowels. The proof lies in careful observation and induction; by studying the speech of the Arabs, we found no other forms inflected in this manner.
