A Breakdown of Arabic Past Tense Verbs: Everything You Need to Know

In this lesson we will learn about the past tense of verbs, actions that have occurred in the past.
The past tense in Arabic is the same as the root form of verbs. You'll discover that each letter of the verb carries a fatha vowel, but here's where it gets interesting: the last letter vowel can change depending on the pronoun it represents when conjugated.
With the clear explanations provided in this lesson, we will understand the root form of verbs and guide you through the process of conjugating them to accurately express each pronoun in the past tense.
By the end of this lesson, you'll have a solid understanding of how to form and use the past tense in Arabic. Prepare to unlock a whole new dimension of language proficiency as you confidently express actions from the past.

Shouldn’t the English transcription at 2:46 on the slide also reflect that the last fatah of the ‘she’ form does not drop?
dakhalt -> dakhalat

[@daniellevy330]

"We" is not a singular pronoun. Anyway, very good lesson

Thank you for your great observation! It seems that detail must have slipped past me. Nonetheless, I'm glad you found the video beneficial.
