● Learn the translations of sentences with demonstratives and dual forms whose final nūn is dropped:
○ This book is new: -> هٰذَا الْكِتَابُ جَدِيدٌ (هٰذَا الْكِتَابُ is a demonstrative-phrase subject; جَدِيدٌ is a single-word predicate.)
○ That fan is old: -> تِلْكَ الْمِرْوَحَةُ قَدِيمَةٌ (الْمِرْوَحَةُ is feminine, so both the demonstrative and predicate are feminine.)
○ Ḥāmid's brother is truthful: -> أَخُو حَامِدٍ صَادِقٌ (أَخُو is one of the five nouns, used as a nominative muḍāf with wāw.)
○ Allah is the Protector of the God-conscious: -> اَللهُ وَلِيُّ الْمُتَّقِينَ (الْمُتَّقِينَ is a genitive sound masculine plural muḍāf ilayh.)
○ These are Zayd's sons: -> هٰؤُلَاءِ بَنُو زَيْدٍ (The final nūn of بَنُونَ is dropped, and بَنُو becomes the muḍāf predicate.)
○ These two are Zayd's boys: -> هٰذَانِ وَلَدَا زَيْدٍ (The final nūn of the dual muḍāf وَلَدَانِ is dropped, producing وَلَدَا.)
