Complete F6 grammar review
Review the controlling meaning and agreement decision behind each high-value structure.
Existence and gender
يُوجَدُ + مُذَكَّرٌ · تُوجَدُ + مُؤَنَّثٌ
The noun controls the formal existence verb.
Movement and direction
بِـ / عَلَى / مَشْيًا · اِذْهَبْ / اِذْهَبِي / اِذْهَبُوا
Transport type controls the preposition; addressee controls the command ending.
Prices and duration
كَمْ ثَمَنُهُ / ثَمَنُهَا؟ · تَسْتَغْرِقُ + مُدَّةً
The suffix refers to the item; the journey noun controls the feminine verb.
Buildings and balanced judgement
مَبْنِيٌّ / مَبْنِيَّةٌ مِنْ · مِنْ مَزَايَا / عُيُوبِ... أَنَّ
Agreement remains visible while a balanced response presents both sides.

السَّائِحُ: مِنْ فَضْلِكَ، أَيْنَ مَحَطَّةُ القِطَارِ؟ المَوَاطِنُ: اِذْهَبْ مُسْتَقِيمًا حَتَّى إِشَارَةِ المَرُورِ، ثُمَّ اِنْعَطِفْ يَمِينًا. سَتَمُرُّ بِمَكْتَبَةٍ كَبِيرَةٍ عَلَى يَسَارِكَ، وَالمَحَطَّةُ خَلْفَ المَكْتَبَةِ. هِيَ قَرِيبَةٌ؛ تَسْتَغْرِقُ المَسَافَةُ عَشْرَ دَقَائِقَ مَشْيًا. اِشْتَرِ تَذْكِرَةَ ذَهَابٍ وَإِيَابٍ مِنَ الشُّبَّاكِ الثَّانِي. يَغَادِرُ القِطَارُ مِنَ الرَّصِيفِ الرَّابِعِ فِي السَّاعَةِ العَاشِرَةِ وَالنِّصْفِ. الرِّحْلَةُ تَسْتَغْرِقُ خَمْسًا وَأَرْبَعِينَ دَقِيقَةً. فِي العَوْدَةِ أَنْصَحُكَ بِالحَافِلَةِ لِأَنَّهَا أَرْخَصُ، وَلٰكِنَّ القِطَارَ أَسْرَعُ.

سَلْمَى: أَسْكُنُ فِي مَدِينَةٍ حَدِيثَةٍ تَتَمَيَّزُ بِمِتْرُو سَرِيعٍ وَمَرْكَزٍ تِجَارِيٍّ كَبِيرٍ. مِنْ مَزَايَاهَا أَنَّ المَوَاصَلَاتِ مُنَظَّمَةٌ، وَلٰكِنَّ الشَّوَارِعَ مُكْتَظَّةٌ. أَذْهَبُ إِلَى الجَامِعَةِ بِالمِتْرُو. حَسَنٌ: أَمَّا أَنَا فَأَسْكُنُ فِي بَلْدَةٍ تَارِيخِيَّةٍ هَادِئَةٍ. تُوجَدُ فِيهَا أَسْوَاقٌ قَدِيمَةٌ وَمَبَانٍ مَبْنِيَّةٌ مِنَ الحَجَرِ. لَا يُوجَدُ مِتْرُو، لِذٰلِكَ أَتَنَقَّلُ بِالحَافِلَةِ أَوْ مَشْيًا. نَحْنُ الاثْنَانِ نُحِبُّ مَكَانَ سَكَنِنَا، وَلٰكِنَّنَا نُرِيدُ مَوَاصَلَاتٍ أَنْظَفَ.

مَرْحَبًا بِكُمْ فِي مَدِينَةِ الوَاحَةِ. يَقَعُ الحَيُّ التَّارِيخِيُّ فِي شَمَالِ المَدِينَةِ، وَيَتَمَيَّزُ بِبُيُوتٍ مَبْنِيَّةٍ مِنَ الطِّينِ وَالحَجَرِ. فِي الوَسَطِ تُوجَدُ قَلْعَةٌ قَدِيمَةٌ وَسُوقٌ شَعْبِيٌّ. المَطَارُ خَارِجَ المَدِينَةِ، وَتَسْتَغْرِقُ الرِّحْلَةُ إِلَيْهِ نِصْفَ سَاعَةٍ بِسَيَّارَةِ الأُجْرَةِ. أَنْصَحُ الزُّوَّارَ بِاسْتِقْلَالِ الحَافِلَةِ فِي المَرْكَزِ لِأَنَّهَا رَخِيصَةٌ، وَبِالمَشْيِ فِي الحَيِّ القَدِيمِ لِأَنَّ شَوَارِعَهُ ضَيِّقَةٌ.

مَدِينَةُ السَّلَامِ
مَدِينَةُ السَّلَامِ مَدِينَةٌ سَاحِلِيَّةٌ مُتَوَسِّطَةُ الحَجْمِ. فِي مَرْكَزِهَا تُوجَدُ مَكْتَبَةٌ حَدِيثَةٌ وَمَتْحَفٌ مَبْنِيٌّ مِنَ الحَجَرِ. أَمَّا المَحَطَّةُ فَهِيَ مُقَابِلَ السُّوقِ وَقَرِيبَةٌ مِنَ الفُنْدُقِ. أَذْهَبُ إِلَى المَدْرَسَةِ بِالحَافِلَةِ، وَتَسْتَغْرِقُ الرِّحْلَةُ خَمْسًا وَعِشْرِينَ دَقِيقَةً. مِنْ مَزَايَا المَدِينَةِ أَنَّ المَوَاصَلَاتِ رَخِيصَةٌ وَأَنَّ الحَدَائِقَ نَظِيفَةٌ. وَلٰكِنْ مِنْ عُيُوبِهَا أَنَّ الطُّرُقَ مُزْدَحِمَةٌ فِي الصَّبَاحِ. بِصِفَةٍ عَامَّةٍ أُحِبُّ مَدِينَتِي لِأَنَّهَا آمِنَةٌ وَنَشِيطَةٌ.

Speaking assessment
Use the preparation space to organise ideas, not to write a script.

Describe your town, explain how you travel, and present one advantage and one disadvantage.
Use a direction command, one existence structure and one justified opinion.
Possible questions
- صِفْ مَدِينَتَكَ.
- كَيْفَ تَتَنَقَّلُ فِي مَدِينَتِكَ؟
- مَا مَزَايَا مَدِينَتِكَ وَعُيُوبُهَا؟
- أَيْنَ أَقْرَبُ مَحَطَّةٍ؟
- كَيْفَ أَذْهَبُ إِلَى المَتْحَفِ؟
