LessonsComplete Conjugation of the Hollow Wāw Verb: Qāla–YaqūluQuiz

In يَقُولَانِ، يَقُولُونَ، تَقُولِينَ, the final nūn is the inflectional nūn, dropped in the subjunctive or jussive:
لَنْ يَقُولَا; لَمْ يَقُولُوا; لَنْ تَقُولِي.
By contrast, the nūn in يَقُلْنَ, تَقُلْنَ belongs to the feminine-plural ending, not to indicative inflection.
Thus لَمْ يَقُلْنَ retains its nūn. Confusing these two categories produces invalid forms.
