1Meaning

What does the structure communicate?

2Form

Which word or ending changes?

3Agreement

What must match the noun or person?

Can you use it with new vocabulary?

يَسُودُ مَنَاخٌ جَافٌّ فِي الدَّاخِلِ، وَتَهُبُّ الرِّيَاحُ بِقُوَّةٍ فِي الرَّبِيعِ.
What to notice

Keep climate description and weather events distinct.

يُلَوَّثُ الهَوَاءُ بِسَبَبِ عَوَادِمِ السَّيَّارَاتِ، مِمَّا يُؤَدِّي إِلَى أَمْرَاضٍ تَنَفُّسِيَّةٍ.
What to notice

Use a true passive where the affected thing is foregrounded.

يَجِبُ عَلَى الحُكُومَةِ أَنْ تُوَسِّعَ النَّقْلَ العَامَّ لِكَيْ تُقَلِّلَ الانْبِعَاثَاتِ.
What to notice

State who must act and why.

1

Climate and weather accuracy

formal climate phrase + correct weather agreement

Keep climate description and weather events distinct.

يَسُودُ مَنَاخٌ جَافٌّ فِي الدَّاخِلِ، وَتَهُبُّ الرِّيَاحُ بِقُوَّةٍ فِي الرَّبِيعِ.
2

Problem, cause and passive

passive problem + cause connector + result

Use a true passive where the affected thing is foregrounded.

يُلَوَّثُ الهَوَاءُ بِسَبَبِ عَوَادِمِ السَّيَّارَاتِ، مِمَّا يُؤَدِّي إِلَى أَمْرَاضٍ تَنَفُّسِيَّةٍ.
3

Solution and purpose

responsible group + obligation + purpose

State who must act and why.

يَجِبُ عَلَى الحُكُومَةِ أَنْ تُوَسِّعَ النَّقْلَ العَامَّ لِكَيْ تُقَلِّلَ الانْبِعَاثَاتِ.
4

Qualified academic judgement

concession + judgement + condition

A strong answer recognises limits and states conditions.

عَلَى الرَّغْمِ مِنْ أَنَّ التِّقْنِيَّةَ مُكَلِّفَةٌ، فَإِنَّهَا مُفِيدَةٌ شَرِيطَةَ أَنْ تُطَبَّقَ بِمَسْؤُولِيَّةٍ.

Sentence-building and transformation studio

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

Build several complete environmental problem chains.

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.

My generated sentence

اِخْتَرْ جُزْءًا مِنْ كُلِّ قَائِمَةٍ.

0/3 different sentences built.

Combine passive description, cause and consequence. Every combination is grammatically accurate and environmentally plausible.

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

يَجِبُ عَلَى الحُكُومَةِ أَنْ تُوَسِّعُ النَّقْلَ لِكَيْ تُقَلِّلُ الانْبِعَاثَاتِ.

يَجِبُ عَلَى الحُكُومَةِ أَنْ تُوَسِّعَ النَّقْلَ لِكَيْ تُقَلِّلَ الانْبِعَاثَاتِ.

Both توسّعَ and تقلّلَ are subjunctive after أن and لكي.

يُشَارُ إِلَى أَنْ المَنَاخُ يَتَغَيَّرُ.

يُشَارُ إِلَى أَنَّ المَنَاخَ يَتَغَيَّرُ.

Impersonal reporting uses أنَّ.

عَلَى الرَّغْمِ مِنْ أَنَّ المَشْرُوعَ مُكَلِّفٌ، فَهُوَ مُكَلِّفٌ.
