أَسْتَنْتِجُ: إِذَا أُلْحِقَتْ أَلِفُ التَّثْنِيَةِ بِالاسْمِ الْمُفْرَدِ الْمُنْتَهِي بِهَمْزَةٍ مُتَطَرِّفَةٍ مَكْتُوبَةٍ عَلَى أَلِفٍ تُقْلَبُ الْهَمْزَةُ مَدَّةً.

Conclusion: If the dual alif is added to a singular noun ending in a terminal hamza written on an alif, the hamza becomes a madda.

أُطَبِّقُ: أُثَنِّي كَلِمَتَيْ (مَنْشَأ، مَرْفَأ)، وَأَضَعُ كُلًّا مِنْهُمَا فِي جُمْلَةٍ مُفِيدَةٍ.

Application: Form the dual of the words (mansha', marfa') and use each in a complete sentence.

مَنْشَأ، مَرْفَأ.

Origin, port.

أَقْرَأُ الْأَمْثِلَةَ الْآتِيَةَ، ثُمَّ أُنَفِّذُ النَّشَاطَ:

Read the following examples, then complete the activity:

الْأُمِّيَّةُ عِبْءٌ عَلَى الْمُجْتَمَعِ.

Illiteracy is a burden on society.

لِلَّاذِقِيَّةِ شَاطِئٌ جَمِيلٌ.

Latakia has a beautiful beach.

الْأَمَلُ جُزْءٌ مِنْ تَكْوِينِ الْإِنْسَانِ النَّاجِحِ.

Hope is part of a successful person's makeup.

الْأُمِّيَّةُ وَالْفَقْرُ عِبْءَانِ عَلَى الْمُجْتَمَعِ.

Illiteracy and poverty are two burdens on society.

لِلَّاذِقِيَّةِ وَطَرطُوسَ شَاطِئَانِ جَمِيلَانِ.

Latakia and Tartus have two beautiful beaches.

الْأَمَلُ وَالِاجْتِهَادُ جُزْءَانِ مِنْ تَكْوِينِ الْإِنْسَانِ النَّاجِحِ.

Hope and diligence are two parts of a successful person's makeup.

١. أُلَاحِظُ أَنَّ الْهَمْزَةَ فِي الْأَسْمَاءِ (عِبْء، شَاطِئ، جُزْء) فِي الْقَائِمَةِ (أ) هَمْزَةٌ مُتَطَرِّفَةٌ، أُبَيِّنُ أَيْنَ رُسِمَتْ؟ وَلِمَاذَا؟

1. I observe that the hamza in the nouns (burden, beach, part) in list (A) is a terminal hamza. Where is it written, and why?

٢. أُلَاحِظُ أَنَّ الْهَمْزَةَ فِي (عِبْء) لَمْ تُرْسَمْ عَلَى أَلِفٍ وَسُبِقَتْ بِحَرْفٍ سَاكِنٍ يَتَّصِلُ بِمَا بَعْدَهُ، أُبَيِّنُ أَيْنَ رُسِمَتِ الْهَمْزَةُ فِي (عِبْءَانِ) عِنْدَمَا أُلْحِقَتْ بِهَا عَلَامَةُ التَّثْنِيَةِ فِي الْقَائِمَةِ (ب)؟

2. I observe that the hamza in (burden) was not written on an alif and was preceded by a consonant that connects to the following letter. Where is the hamza written in (two burdens) when the dual suffix is added in list (B)?

٣. أُلَاحِظُ أَنَّ الْهَمْزَةَ فِي كَلِمَةِ (شَاطِئ) لَمْ تُرْسَمْ عَلَى أَلِفٍ، وَسُبِقَتْ بِحَرْفٍ مُتَحَرِّكٍ فَعُومِلَتْ مُعَامَلَةَ الْهَمْزَةِ الْمُتَوَسِّطَةِ بَعْدَ دُخُولِ أَلِفِ التَّثْنِيَةِ عَلَى الِاسْمِ، أُبَيِّنُ أَيْنَ رُسِمَتِ الْهَمْزَةُ فِي كَلِمَةِ (شَاطِئَانِ) عِنْدَمَا أُلْحِقَتْ بِهَا عَلَامَةُ التَّثْنِيَةِ فِي الْقَائِمَةِ (ب)؟

3. I observe that the hamza in (beach) was not written on an alif and was preceded by a vowelized letter, so it is treated like a medial hamza once the dual alif is added. Where is the hamza written in (two beaches) when the dual suffix is added in list (B)?

٤. أُلَاحِظُ أَنَّ الْهَمْزَةَ فِي الِاسْمِ (جُزْء) لَمْ تُرْسَمْ عَلَى أَلِفٍ، وَسُبِقَتْ بِحَرْفٍ سَاكِنٍ لَا يَتَّصِلُ بِمَا بَعْدَهُ، أُبَيِّنُ أَيْنَ رُسِمَتِ الْهَمْزَةُ فِي الِاسْمِ (جُزْءَانِ) عِنْدَمَا أُلْحِقَتْ بِهَا عَلَامَةُ التَّثْنِيَةِ فِي الْقَائِمَةِ (ب)؟

4. I observe that the hamza in (part) was not written on an alif and was preceded by a consonant that does not connect to the following letter. Where is the hamza written in (two parts) when the dual suffix is added in list (B)?
