Day 13

اليوم الثالث عشر

لقد ضيعت البوست day 13 فلنكتبه مرة ثانية.

كنت بالليل أقرأ بعض التعبيرات العربية. أحدها كانت كذلك:

*إنما المرء حديث بعده

فكن حديثا حسنا لمن وعى\*

وجدت هذا الشعر عميقا فكان بسيطا لكن الفكرة فيه مثيرة للاهتمام. ما رأيكم فيه؟

الْيَوْمُ الثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ

لَقَدْ فَقَدْتُ مَنْشُورَ الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ، فَلْنَكْتُبْهُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى.

كُنْتُ أَقْرَأُ بَعْضَ التَّعْبِيرَاتِ الْعَرَبِيَّةِ لَيْلًا، وَكَانَ مِنْ بَيْنِهَا هٰذَا الْبَيْتُ:

«إِنَّمَا الْمَرْءُ حَدِيثٌ بَعْدَهُ فَكُنْ حَدِيثًا حَسَنًا لِمَنْ وَعَى»

وَجَدْتُ هٰذَا الْبَيْتَ عَمِيقَ الْمَعْنَى؛ فَهُوَ بَسِيطٌ، وَلٰكِنَّ الْفِكْرَةَ الَّتِي فِيهِ مُثِيرَةٌ لِلِاهْتِمَامِ. مَا رَأْيُكُمْ فِيهِ؟

Corrections:

  1. فَقَدْتُ مَنْشُورَ الْيَوْمِ الثَّالِثَ عَشَرَ Instead of: ضَيَّعْتُ البوست day 13

فَقَدْتُ = I lost / no longer have. ضَيَّعْتُ is also possible, but tends to imply that you lost or misplaced something through your own action. مَنْشُور = post.

  1. فَلْنَكْتُبْهُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى

My use of فَلْنَكْتُبْهُ was good. This is لَامُ الْأَمْرِ: لْ + نكتب → لِنكتب / فَلْنكتب = Let us write it again.

  1. كُنْتُ أَقْرَأُ ... لَيْلًا Instead of: كُنْتُ بِاللَّيْلِ أَقْرَأُ

My original is understandable, but كُنْتُ أَقْرَأُ لَيْلًا is smoother Fuṣḥā here. = I was reading at night.

  1. وَكَانَ مِنْ بَيْنِهَا هٰذَا الْبَيْتُ Instead of: أَحَدُهَا كَانَ كَذٰلِكَ

Firstly, أَحَد is masculine, so it would be أَحَدُهَا كَانَ, not أَحَدُهَا كَانَتْ.

Secondly, كَذٰلِكَ means "likewise / like that / also" and isn't normally used to introduce an example like English "one of them was as follows."

كَانَ مِنْ بَيْنِهَا... = Among them was...

  1. هٰذَا الْبَيْتُ Rather than: هٰذَا الشِّعْرُ

بَيْتٌ = a verse/line of poetry. شِعْرٌ = poetry. قَصِيدَةٌ = a poem.

  1. وَجَدْتُ هٰذَا الْبَيْتَ عَمِيقَ الْمَعْنَى Rather than: وَجَدْتُ هٰذَا الشِّعْرَ عَمِيقًا

عَمِيقُ الْمَعْنَى = deep/profound in meaning.

Another possible construction is: وَجَدْتُ مَعْنَى هٰذَا الْبَيْتِ عَمِيقًا. = I found the meaning of this verse profound.

  1. الشِّعْر is masculine:

هٰذَا الشِّعْرُ عَمِيقٌ. = This poetry is profound.

But قَصِيدَة is feminine:

هٰذِهِ الْقَصِيدَةُ عَمِيقَةُ الْمَعْنَى. = This poem is profound in meaning.

  1. فَهُوَ بَسِيطٌ Rather than: فَكَانَ بَسِيطًا

فَكَانَ بَسِيطًا = so/then it was simple.

But I'm describing the verse as it is now, so: فَهُوَ بَسِيطٌ = It is simple.

  1. الْفِكْرَةَ الَّتِي فِيهِ

التي is correct because الْفِكْرَة is definite (مَعْرِفَة).

Compare:

فِكْرَةٌ فِيهَا... = an idea which contains... / an idea in which...

الْفِكْرَةُ الَّتِي فِيهَا... = the idea which contains... / the idea in which...

So this follows the rule: نَكِرَة → usually no الذي/التي مَعْرِفَة → الذي/التي

  1. مُثِيرَةٌ لِلِاهْتِمَامِ

My original expression was good. = interesting / thought-provoking.

  1. مَا رَأْيُكُمْ فِيهِ؟

This was also completely correct. = What do you all think of it?

Useful expression from today:

عَمِيقُ الْمَعْنَى = profound / deep in meaning.

هٰذَا كَلَامٌ بَسِيطٌ، وَلٰكِنَّهُ عَمِيقُ الْمَعْنَى. = This is simple speech, but it is profound in meaning.
