Objectives and visible success

Today you will

Describe a past holiday using travel verbs including حَجَزَ and أَقَامَ فِي.
Handle hollow travel verbs in the past: زَارَ becomes زُرْتُ, أَقَامَ becomes أَقَمْتُ.
Contrast a past trip with a future plan using سَـ or سَوْفَ.
Write a dual-tense holiday account of ninety to one hundred words.

You can show success when…

I shorten the middle vowel of زَارَ and أَقَامَ before a consonant suffix.
I follow اسْتَمْتَعَ with بِـ and the genitive.
I mark the future with سَـ attached to a present verb.
I keep past and future clearly separated within one account.

Past narrative and future plans

سَرْدُ المَاضِي وَخُطَطُ المُسْتَقْبَلِ

Travel verbs bring three challenges at once: hollow stems, fixed prepositions, and a clean switch to the future. Deal with them one at a time.

1Meaning

What does the structure communicate?

2Form

Which word or ending changes?

3Agreement

What must match the noun or person?

4Transfer

Can you use it with new vocabulary?

زُرْتُ المَعَالِمَ السِّيَاحِيَّةَ

What to notice

زَارَ shortens to زُرْـ and takes a direct object.

أَقَمْنَا فِي فُنْدُقٍ صَغِيرٍ

What to notice

أَقَامَ shortens to أَقَمْـ and is fixed with فِي.

سَأَزُورُ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى

What to notice

سَـ attaches directly to the present verb.

Hollow verbs in the past

زَارَ → زُرْتُ · أَقَامَ → أَقَمْتُ · عَادَ → عُدْنَا

Before a consonant suffix the long middle vowel shortens. The bare هُوَ form keeps the long vowel.

زُرْتُ المَعَالِمَ السِّيَاحِيَّةَأَقَمْنَا فِي فُنْدُقٍ صَغِيرٍ

Fixed prepositions on travel verbs

سَافَرَ إِلَى · أَقَامَ فِي · نَزَلَ فِي · اسْتَمْتَعَ بِـ

Each verb keeps its own preposition, and the noun after it is genitive.

سَافَرْنَا إِلَى مَدِينَةٍ سَاحِلِيَّةٍاسْتَمْتَعْتُ بِالرِّحْلَةِ كَثِيرًا

Marking the future

سَـ + present verb / سَوْفَ + present verb

سَـ attaches directly to the verb; سَوْفَ stands separately and is slightly more emphatic.

سَأَزُورُ المَدِينَةَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَىسَوْفَ نَحْجِزُ مُبَكِّرًا

Evaluating the trip

كَانَ مِنْ أَجْمَلِ + genitive plural

مِنْ plus a superlative introduces the group the thing belongs to; the noun after the superlative is genitive.

كَانَتْ مِنْ أَجْمَلِ الرِّحْلَاتِكَانَ مِنْ أَفْضَلِ الأَيَّامِ

Verb	Past with a suffix	Preposition
زَارَ	زُرْتُ / زُرْنَا	direct object
أَقَامَ	أَقَمْتُ / أَقَمْنَا	فِي
سَافَرَ	سَافَرْتُ / سَافَرْنَا	إِلَى
اسْتَمْتَعَ	اسْتَمْتَعْتُ	بِـ

Hollow travel verbs shorten before the suffix

زَارَ، أَقَامَ and عَادَ all carry a long vowel in the middle. Before a consonant suffix it shortens: زُرْتُ، أَقَمْتُ، عُدْنَا. This is the same rule you met with قَالَ in Lesson 4.

One account, two tenses

Narrate what happened in the past, then switch cleanly to سَـ or سَوْفَ for what you plan next. Examiners reward this contrast, but only when each tense stays where it belongs.

Combinatorial builder studio

Build accurate holiday accounts from a past clause, a detail and a future plan.

This guided builder accepts 27 accurate combinations. Build 3 different sentences, changing one meaningful chunk each time. Compare the grammar and meaning before moving to the independent tasks.

Each past clause, detail and future plan is accurate on its own, so any three different combinations work.

Transformation challenge

Shorten the hollow stem

Repair the past verb so its middle vowel shortens before the suffix.

Strong learners do not only recognise an error: they identify the system and repair it.

زَارْتُ المَدِينَةَ.

زُرْتُ المَدِينَةَ.

A hollow verb shortens its middle vowel before a consonant suffix.

اسْتَمْتَعْتُ الرِّحْلَةَ.

اسْتَمْتَعْتُ بِالرِّحْلَةِ.

اسْتَمْتَعَ needs the preposition بِـ.

سَزُرْتُ المَدِينَةَ غَدًا.

سَأَزُورُ المَدِينَةَ غَدًا.

سَـ attaches to a present verb, never to a past one.
