intentive future marker: will Brustad argues this is a future tense used to show intent, used with non-factual information. (compare with رَح). However, since the usage seems to vary across dialects, making generalizations seems hard. According to Brustad, some notes about using it: 1. used with questions that show intention, hence it is often on the first or second person verb, e.g. in questions, to show intention; 2. cannot be used to ask about factual information unless it focuses on addresses intentions. it would be incorrect to say: شُوْ بِتْجِيب مَعَك [L] what will you bring with you; but you are allowed to say: اِمْتَى بِتْزِيد لْنا المَعَاش [L] when do you plan to raise our salary; 3. There is clearly some overlap between رح and ب, and it also varies some between regions in the Levant. 4. note also that some sentences have similar meanings with and without ب : وَعَدْني إِنُّه بْيِرْجَع [S] He promised me he would come back; وَعَدْني إِنُّه يِرْجَع [S] He promised me to come back;

him, his (third person male singular suffix pronoun. this form is specifically added to words that end in a consonant. Sometimes this dictionary uses the spelling ـُه . For words that end in a vowel, the vowel is lengthened instead, like: وَرَا : behind (said wɑrɑ) وَرَاه behind him (said wɑrᾱ) and similarly for other vowels); (note that for purposes of this dictionary, the short /o/ is represented in Arabic as a ـُ when it is in the middle of a word, but as ـُو at the end of a word. Also the long /ō/ is represented as ـَوْ . There are three main reasons for this: the limitation of Arabic characters, the fact that it has become widespread when writing the Levantine dialect to add the و at the end of the word (without the ـُ of course when just writing on social media or something), and finally the /ō/ vowel is simply the flattening of the dipthong /aw/.); [pronunciation: _o [S] _o]

God (with a capital G) (this is the word إلـٰه with the definite article added in.

For simplicity's sake, the entries have been separated based on general meaning. If the phrase is not listed here try looking under the other words in the phrase. Note also that many of these phrases can have multiple meanings, some opposite of each other, depending on context. If a specific pronunciation is worth noting I have tried to include it. Depending on context, it is not uncommon to hear this word said with the different CA pronunciations, in particular 'allaahu, 'allaahi, 'illaah and 'illaahi. Also, at times it will be said 'alla and 'illa. notes on different ways الله is said; الله الله الله said to show surprise at how wonderful s.th. is. there is usually a slight pause between each word الله الله الله الله said very quickly without pauses (almost like al-lal-lal-lal-la). It shows shock and disbelief; الله said with rising intonation, indicates surprise (either good or bad). this is often said 'alla or 'alla or halla. see also الله على; الله! هو هنا What! he's here? الله، جَرَى أَيْه؟ God, what happened?! |

| Word: | ما | ||||
|
but...!, isn't it that... this ما shows emphasis, and in general is added to statements that are "contradicting" something that was previously said or done, i.e. denying a presupposition. It should be followed immediately by nominal sentence (i.e. by a sentence starting with a noun or pronoun), which is one of the indications that this kind of ما is being used. It is followed by a nominal sentence to show that event is real (in contrast to the ما that emphasizes a command). Additionally, the tone is important as it will usually carry the emphasis and "contradicting" nature of the sentence. ("Contradicting" isn't quite right. Badawi calls it expostulation, but that isn't the right word either.) when it occurs with the third person pronoun suffixes it can take two forms (either with a shadda on the last letter or not): ما هُوْ = ما هُوَّ ما هِيْ = ما هِيَّ ماهُمْ = ما هُمَّ [keyword]

|||||
| Word: | ما | ||||
|
no (one), (am, are, is) not; particle emphasizing that one will not do something. Used either in oaths in the colloquial contexts or in pieces of language extracted from CA. This is also used past tense verbs to show the intention not to do something (Call the commissive mood, because one is committing to not doing something). The supposed logic behind the structure is that it creates tension between the realized and unrealized, and perhaps, when one considers tone, implies the anger the speaker would feel if the event were realized. Mitchell and El-Hassan note that this is the language of women.
