Vocabulary mission
Move between Arabic and meaning without relying on the order of the cards.
Explain · notice · apply
Study each structure in context, compare accurate and inaccurate forms, then apply it in meaningful Arabic.
What does the structure communicate?
Which word or ending changes?
What must match the noun or person?
Can you use it with new vocabulary?
The active sentence names the agent. The passive focuses on the affected thing; the passive subject is nominative.
These expressions are followed by a noun phrase, not a complete finite clause.
Keep the preposition إِلَى after يُؤَدِّي.
تُلَوِّثُ Xُ Yَ ↔ يُلَوَّثُ Yُ
The active sentence names the agent. The passive focuses on the affected thing; the passive subject is nominative.
بِسَبَبِ / نَتِيجَةً لِـ + genitive noun
These expressions are followed by a noun phrase, not a complete finite clause.
cause + يُؤَدِّي إِلَى + verbal noun / noun
Keep the preposition إِلَى after يُؤَدِّي.
clause، مِمَّا يُسَبِّبُ / مِمَّا يُؤَدِّي إِلَى
مِمَّا refers back to the whole previous idea.
| Structure | How it works | Accurate example |
|---|---|---|
| Active and passive | تُلَوِّثُ Xُ Yَ ↔ يُلَوَّثُ Yُ | تُلَوِّثُ المَصَانِعُ الهَوَاءَ. |
| Cause phrases | بِسَبَبِ / نَتِيجَةً لِـ + genitive noun | يَتَلَوَّثُ البَحْرُ بِسَبَبِ النُّفَايَاتِ البِلَاسْتِيكِيَّةِ. |
| Result with يُؤَدِّي إِلَى | cause + يُؤَدِّي إِلَى + verbal noun / noun | يُؤَدِّي قَطْعُ الأَشْجَارِ إِلَى فَقْدِ المَوَائِلِ. |
| Linking a whole clause to a consequence | clause، مِمَّا يُسَبِّبُ / مِمَّا يُؤَدِّي إِلَى | تَرْتَفِعُ دَرَجَةُ الحَرَارَةِ، مِمَّا يُسَبِّبُ ذَوَبَانَ الجَلِيدِ. |
Use the complete phrase and its context; do not decide from one isolated word.
Agreement, prepositions and verb endings change what a sentence communicates.
Grammar laboratory
Every answer checks a stated rule, change or agreement decision.
Build · transform · justify
The guided builder develops flexible sentence construction. The three independent tasks then test different skills: grammatical transformation, meaning and coherence, and original sentence production.
Combinatorial builder studio
This guided builder accepts 18 accurate combinations. Build 3 different sentences, changing one meaningful chunk each time. Compare the grammar and meaning before moving to the independent tasks.
اِخْتَرْ جُزْءًا مِنْ كُلِّ قَائِمَةٍ.
0/3 different sentences built.
Each cause can lead to a broad environmental problem and consequence. Use بِسَبَبِ for the cause and مِمَّا for the resulting effect.
Change active to passive
Rewrite the active sentence so that الهَوَاءُ becomes the grammatical subject.تُلَوِّثُ المَصَانِعُ الهَوَاءَ.
Focus on what is polluted, not who pollutes it.In the passive, الهَوَاءُ is nominative and the masculine passive verb is يُلَوَّثُ.
Link cause and consequence precisely
Select the sentence that uses بِسَبَبِ for the cause and مِمَّا for the resulting effect.Explain how cutting trees affects biodiversity.
The accurate chain presents the cause first, then the wider environmental result, and finally the consequence for biodiversity.
Build two long-term effect statements
Combine an environmental problem, an effect introduced by إِلَى and a context. Explain which sentence is more serious.يُؤَدِّي / تُؤَدِّي governs إِلَى. Notice that إِزَالَةُ is feminine, so it takes تُؤَدِّي.

Strong learners do not only recognise an error: they identify the system and repair it.
يُلَوِّثُ الهَوَاءُ بِالدُّخَانِ.
يُلَوَّثُ الهَوَاءُ بِالدُّخَانِ.
The passive present of لوّث is يُلَوَّثُ; the air is the passive subject.
يُؤَدِّي التَّلَوُّثُ فِي أَمْرَاضٍ.
يُؤَدِّي التَّلَوُّثُ إِلَى أَمْرَاضٍ.
يؤدي takes the preposition إلى.
يُقْطَعُ الأَشْجَارُ.
تُقْطَعُ الأَشْجَارُ.
الأشجار is a non-human plural treated as feminine.
