الأَفْعَالُ الأَكَادِيمِيَّةُ وَالمُقَارَنَةُ الرَّسْمِيَّةُ
The education verbs with their fixed complements, and the connectors that build a formal comparison between two systems.
What does the structure communicate?
Which word or ending changes?
What must match the noun or person?
Can you use it with new vocabulary?
يَجْتَازُ takes a direct object.
فِي with يَتَفَوَّقُ, بِـ with يَلْتَحِقُ.
A formal comparison, not a list.
يَجْتَازُ + object · يَرْسُبُ فِي · يَتَفَوَّقُ فِي
One takes a direct object; the other two take فِي.
يَلْتَحِقُ بِـ · يَحْصُلُ عَلَى
Enrolment takes بِـ; obtaining takes عَلَى.
بَيْنَمَا · فِي حِينِ أَنَّ · فِي المُقَابِلِ
Set one system against another instead of chaining وَ.
يَتَمَيَّزُ بِـ
Name what marks a system out.
| Verb | Complement | Example |
|---|---|---|
| يَجْتَازُ | direct object | يَجْتَازُ الامْتِحَانَ |
| يَتَفَوَّقُ | فِي | يَتَفَوَّقُ فِي العُلُومِ |
| يَرْسُبُ | فِي | يَرْسُبُ فِي المَادَّةِ |
| يَلْتَحِقُ | بِـ | يَلْتَحِقُ بِالجَامِعَةِ |
يَجْتَازُ takes a direct object (يَجْتَازُ الامْتِحَانَ), while يَتَفَوَّقُ and يَرْسُبُ both take فِي (يَتَفَوَّقُ فِي الرِّيَاضِيَّاتِ، يَرْسُبُ فِي المَادَّةِ). يَلْتَحِقُ takes بِـ. Store each verb with its complement.
A strong comparison sets systems against each other: يَتَمَيَّزُ النِّظَامُ البِرِيطَانِيُّ بِمَرَاحِلَ وَاضِحَةٍ، فِي حِينِ أَنَّ النِّظَامَ فِي بَعْضِ الدُّوَلِ يَعْتَمِدُ عَلَى الامْتِحَانِ النِّهَائِيِّ. That earns more than describing each system separately.
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 27 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 feature, contrast and closing clause is accurate on its own, so any three different combinations work.
Remove the extra preposition
Repair the sentence so يَجْتَازُ takes a direct object.يَجْتَازُ الطَّالِبُ فِي الامْتِحَانِ.
يَجْتَازُ + مَفْعُولٌ بِهِيَجْتَازُ takes a direct object.
Fix the enrolment preposition
Repair the complement after يَلْتَحِقُ.يَلْتَحِقُ الطَّالِبُ عَلَى الجَامِعَةِ.
يَلْتَحِقُ + ؟يَلْتَحِقُ is fixed with بِـ.
Turn a list into a comparison
Rewrite so the two systems are compared, not listed.النِّظَامُ الأَوَّلُ جَيِّدٌ وَالنِّظَامُ الثَّانِي جَيِّدٌ.
اِسْتَعْمِلْ بَيْنَمَابَيْنَمَا sets the systems against each other.
