تَوْظِيفُ القَوَاعِدِ كَامِلَةً فِي نَصٍّ وَاحِدٍ
One text, six structures. Plan where each will appear before you write, then check them one at a time afterwards.
What does the structure communicate?
Which word or ending changes?
What must match the noun or person?
Can you use it with new vocabulary?
أَنَّ makes the noun accusative; the predicate stays nominative.
بِـ is fixed with أَعْتَزُّ.
A passive with a nominative subject.
past experience → present habit → future aspiration
Each section carries its own time phrase, and the verbs follow it.
يَحْتَفِلُ بِـ · يَنْتَمِي إِلَى · يَتَمَسَّكُ بِـ · يَعْتَادُ عَلَى
Choose one and get its preposition right; that is worth more than using three carelessly.
لَا يُمْكِنُ إِنْكَارُ أَنَّ + accusative noun
أَنَّ makes the following noun accusative. Follow the claim with a reason.
تُزَيَّنُ / تُتَبَادَلُ · عِلَاوَةً عَلَى ذٰلِكَ · عَلَى الرَّغْمِ مِنْ
The passive subject is nominative; عَلَى الرَّغْمِ مِنْ takes a genitive noun.
| Criterion | What earns the marks | Self-check |
|---|---|---|
| Task Completion | culture, experience, opinion, aspiration | Have I covered all four? |
| Range | three tenses, cultural verb, comparison, passive | Have I varied the structures? |
| Accuracy | suffixes, prepositions, agreement | Have I checked every verb? |
| Length | 130 to 140 words | Have I counted? |
A response that moves through three tenses, uses one cultural verb correctly, adds a passive and closes with an opinion scores higher than one that repeats a single structure with unusual vocabulary.
Count the past verbs. Check each suffix. Check the preposition on every cultural verb. Confirm the passive subject is nominative. Count the words. Most lost marks are visible in that time.
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.

0/3 different sentences built.
Each clause is accurate on its own, so any three different combinations build a valid three-part spine.
Correct the case after أَنَّ
Repair the noun that follows أَنَّ.لَا يُمْكِنُ إِنْكَارُ أَنَّ اللُّغَةُ جُزْءٌ مِنَ الهُوِيَّةِ.
أَنَّ + ؟أَنَّ takes an accusative noun and a nominative predicate.
Repair the cultural verb
Add the preposition the verb requires.نَحْتَفِلُ العِيدَ مَعَ الجِيرَانِ.
يَحْتَفِلُ + ؟يَحْتَفِلُ requires بِـ with a genitive noun.
Fix the passive subject
Repair the case of the noun after the passive verb.تُزَيَّنُ البُيُوتَ فِي المُنَاسَبَاتِ.
نَائِبُ الفَاعِلِ ← مَرْفُوعٌAfter a passive verb the affected noun is nominative.
