LessonsRestricting the Verb: Objects, Complements and Conditional ClausesQuiz

Restricting the verb by complements gives greater specificity to an action or action-like derivative. Objects, circumstances, reasons, adverbials, exception and specification can each increase informational benefit in a different way.

Leaving a verb unqualified is equally a rhetorical choice. A detail may be unknown, unnecessary or distracting; more qualifiers are not automatically better.

Conditional qualification links a consequence to another state of affairs. «إن جئتني أكرمتك» communicates that relation rather than two independent completed events. The next section, **بيان أدوات الشرط**, studies the particular meanings and uses of individual conditional particles.
