BAB 16

BAB 16 REVISION

VOCAB
to go out = kharaj خرج
he = huwa هو
mosque = masjid مسجد
to = ilaa إلى
teacher = mudarris مدرس

Compare the translation of "HE" in these two sentences:

a) He is a teacher.
huwa mudarris.
هو مدرس

b) He went out to the mosque.
kharaja ilaa al-masjid
خرج إلى المسجد


We see that in (b), the pronoun "he" is not translated. We avoid saying :
huwa kharajnaa ilaa al-masjid.
هو خرجنا إلى المسجد


This is because kharaj is a VERB and pronouns are already built in verbs. We have already learnt about verbs in previous lessons and this grammatical point should not be difficult to be understood by now.

This grammatical point also applicable to other pronouns such as you, they, we etc.
