The discussion regarding the impediment to inflection: "Composition"
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : And those who followed them with excellence until the Day of Judgment. We were discussing the impediments to inflection, which are gathered in the saying of the poet, or in the saying of the composer.
The student: "Gather a balanced weight, feminize it with a definite article, *** Compose it and add a foreign letter, then the description is complete".
The Shaykh :"Gather a balanced weight, feminize it with a definite article, *** Compose it and add a foreign letter, then the description is complete".
We have previously discussed "Gather a balanced weight, feminize it with a definite article, compose it". The last thing is composition. Okay, what is meant by composition?
The student: The compound form.
The Shaykh : That which contains two words in one word. Okay, what is its example?
The student: Hadramawt.
The Shaykh : Hadramawt.
The student: ... .
The Shaykh : No.
The student: Shab Qarnah.
The Shaykh : And not Shab Qarnah, nor Shab Qarnah, nor its ears.
The student: Hadramawt and Baalbek.
The Shaykh : Yes, Hadramawt and Baalbek. Okay, an example of that. Yes, correct.
The student: The example is on...
The Shaykh : On a composed compound, a mixed compound, declined with a fatha. He said Hadramawt. Give it to me in the genitive case.
The student: In the genitive case.
The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
The student: I passed by Hadramawt.
The Shaykh : Meaning, you traveled to Hadramawt, a country. You traveled to Hadramawt, thus to Hadramawt. Its grammatical analysis is with "to" (ila). You traveled is a verb and a subject, which is not our concern. Yes.
The student: "To" is a preposition.
The Shaykh : Yes, "to" is a preposition.
The student: Hadramawt is a noun in the genitive case, marked by a fatha instead of a kasrah.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: Because it is prevented from inflection.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The student: Due to being a proper name and being a compound.
The Shaykh : Correct, yes, due to being a proper name and being a compound. Okay, you stayed in Baalbek, brother.
The student: He stayed.
The Shaykh : You stayed is a verb and a subject, we do not need to analyze it, we have not reached it. In Baalbek, yes.
The student: Baalbek is a noun in the genitive case.
The Shaykh : Yes, genitive with what? Genitive with what? What is the governing word?
The student: With "in" (fi).
The Shaykh : With "in" (fi).
The student: And the sign of its genitive case is a fatha instead of a kasrah, because it is prevented from inflection due to being a proper name and being a compound.
The Shaykh : Well done, good.
