LessonsParticles of Meaning: Aw, Hatta, Ila, Ala, Fi and BaQuiz

After the basic sense of attachment, the source briefly mentions figurative uses of ba such as partiality and augmentation. It does not develop an independent full taxonomy here, so we retain them as secondary uses to recognize.

Review:
Aw — one alternative, or in context an endpoint.
Hatta — an endpoint; sometimes purpose or consequence.
Ila — an endpoint and the question of inclusion.
Ala — obligation, price or condition.
Fi — spatial, temporal or action-related containment.
Ba — attachment and relation to countervalue.

Begin with a particle’s primary meaning, then examine its construction, context and legal subject matter. The next textbook section turns to bayan, clarification and its categories.
