LessonsMulḥaq bi-Rubāʿī: Definition, Two Groups and Nine PatternsQuiz

In ilḥāq, a triliteral augmented form is associated with a quadriliteral template without becoming a genuine four-radical root. The correspondence must include the verbal noun, not just a casual resemblance of letters.
Seven patterns parallel unaugmented quadriliterals, and two categories parallel augmented quadriliterals, giving nine patterns. Some examples share meanings but differ in formation; others differ by a small formative element that signals a separate pattern.
The resulting morphological skill is to connect, but not confuse, the root, template, form, verbal noun and lexical meaning.
