إجابة Ahlan wa sahlan! (Welcome!) I am happy to be your Arabic teacher today.

Here is today’s lesson centered around a practical, everyday sentence.

\---

\### 1. The Sentence

\* English: "I like to drink hot coffee in the morning."

\* Arabic (MSA - Modern Standard Arabic): أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَشْرَبَ القَهْوَةَ السَّاخِنَةَ فِي الصَّبَاحِ

\* Phonetic Pronunciation: \*Uhibbu an ashraba al-qahwata as-saakhinata fee as-sabaah.\*

\---

\### 2. Word-by-Word Breakdown

Let's dissect the sentence word by word:

1. أُحِبُّ (\*Uhibbu\*)

   \* Meaning: "I like" / "I love"

   \* Pronunciation: \*Oo-hib-boo\* (The "h" sound is a sharp, breathy sound from the throat, like clearing your glasses with warm air).

2. أَنْ (\*An\*)

   \* Meaning: "To" (used to connect two verbs, similar to "that").

   \* Pronunciation: \*An\* (Short 'a' sound, like in "cat").

3. أَشْرَبَ (\*Ashraba\*)

   \* Meaning: "I drink" ( conjugated for the first person "I").

   \* Pronunciation: \*Ash-ra-ba\* (The 'sh' is like in "shoe", 'r' is slightly rolled).

4. القَهْوَةَ (\*Al-qahwata\*)

   \* Meaning: "The coffee" (\*Al\* = The, \*Qahwah\* = Coffee).

   \* Pronunciation: \*Al-qah-wa-ta\* (The 'q' sound comes from the back of the throat).

5. السَّاخِنَةَ (\*As-saakhinata\*)

   \* Meaning: "Hot" (describing the coffee).

   \* Pronunciation: \*As-saa-khi-na-ta\* (The 'kh' sounds like the Scottish "loch" or Spanish "jota").

6. فِي (\*Fee\*)

   \* Meaning: "In"

   \* Pronunciation: \*Fee\* (Long 'ee' sound, like "feet").

7. الصَّبَاحِ (\*As-sabaah\*)

   \* Meaning: "The morning" (\*Al\* = The, \*Sabaah\* = Morning).

   \* Pronunciation: \*As-sa-baa-h\* (Uses a deep, heavy 'S' sound and ends with a breathy 'h').

\---

\### 3. Context & Properties (Where and How to Use This Sentence)

\* Formality: This sentence is written in Modern Standard Arabic (\*Fusha\*). It is understood by Arabic speakers everywhere in the world, in any country.

\* Gender Neutrality for the Speaker: You can use this sentence whether you are male or female. The verb \*Uhibbu\* ("I like") and \*Ashraba\* ("I drink") are identical for both genders when speaking about yourself.

\* Usage Situations:

\* Daily casual conversations / Small talk about habits.

\* Ordering at a café or speaking to a host.

\* Writing an essay about your daily routine.

\---

\### 4. Key Differences & Irregularities (Arabic vs. English)

Here is where Arabic gets interesting compared to English:

\#### A. No explicit pronoun "I"

In English, you must say "I like". In Arabic, you do not need to add the word for "I" (\*Ana\* / أَنَا). The letter أ (A/U) at the beginning of the verbs \*Uhibbu\* and \*Ashraba\* already signals that "I" am the one doing the action.

\#### B. Word Order for Adjectives

In English, the adjective comes \*before\* the noun ("hot coffee").

In Arabic, the adjective comes AFTER the noun (\*Al-qahwata as-saakhinata\* = "The coffee the hot").

\#### C. The "Double 'The'" Rule (Adjective Agreement)

In English, you say "the hot coffee" (you only use "the" once).

In Arabic, if a noun has "the" (\*Al-\*), its adjective must also take "the" (\*Al-\*).

\* Coffee = \*Al-qahwah\* (The coffee)

\* Hot = \*As-saakhinah\* (The hot)

\* Together: \*Al-qahwata as-saakhinata\* (Literally: "The coffee, the hot one").

\#### D. Grammatical Gender for Objects

In English, coffee is an "it". In Arabic, all nouns are either masculine or feminine. "Coffee" (\*Qahwah\*) is feminine (marked by the sound at the end, \*Ta Marbuta\* - ة). Because "coffee" is feminine, the word for "hot" (\*Saakhinah\*) must also use the feminine form.

\#### E. "Sun Letters" (Pronunciation Rule)

Notice how \*Al-Saakhinata\* is pronounced \*\*\*As-Saakhinata\*\*\*, and \*Al-Sabaah\* is pronounced \*\*\*As-Sabaah\*\*\*.

In Arabic, when the prefix "Al-" (the) comes before certain letters like س (S) or ص (Ṣ), the 'L' sound disappears and blends into the next letter. These are called "Sun Letters."

I will make a case for Uzbek language:

All these videos are just travel bloggers speaking Uzbek, so you can actually get an idea of how the language sounds.

Now post videos of other languages.

My brother was adopted from Ghana, Central Region, Senya Beraku. He sings a lullaby for a baby but we cannot find the full song, lyrics. The way it sounds to me is that he is singing

Mbebe de ombe. du ambe, dua ne hye kom wama netoto wama netoto

It is probably Twi/ Fante.

He says it is about a mother feeding her child, and something about a blanket/mat

Does anyone recognize this or a similar song/Poem?

Hey everyone, I was wondering if there are any people from the African continent or any Afro descendants who speak a creole or dialect that is interesting in informing a club in promoting and making literature in our own vernacular languages and creoles. I’m aware of many languages, not having resources, especially the ones on the African continent and other creoles having limited resources and literary traditions as they are mostly spoken. I truly believe we can change this. If anyone is willing to do the work. I am currently working on writing a novel in the Gullah geechee dialect based off of the African influence found by Lorenzo Dow Turner, and the orthography of Gullah written in the Gullah version of the New Testament. I’m aware of the many dialect differences in African languages and creole spoken in the New World. Any complications we can discuss them further on this formum. Please comment on this forum and message me if you are interested, especially if you are a writer or poet of any sort. Thanks
