Continuation of the explanation of Ibn Malik’s (may Allah have mercy on him) saying: “And make the vocative valid if it is added to the first person, *** like ‘O my slave, O slave, O slave, O my slave.’”
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : All right, “my slave”: In “my slave,” you see that the alif here is for generalization, and the intended meaning is “my slave” (with a kasrah), so you say: O my slave. Yes, “slave” is a vocative in the accusative case due to the yaa of the vocative, and the sign of its accusative is a kasrah that is estimated on the letter before the yaa of the first person, the appearance of which is prevented by the occupation of the position with the movement of the appropriate letter. “Slave” is a dependent noun, and the yaa of the first person is a prepositional object, built on the fathah in the position of the genitive. In the Noble Qur’an, Allah the Exalted says: [Az-Zumar 39:16]: Its original form is “O my slaves, so fear Allah,” so the yaa was deleted. And He says the Exalted: [Az-Zumar 39:53]: So He brought the yaa, He brought the yaa with a fathah. Like which of the examples?

The student: Shaykh, shall we review, O Shaykh?
The Shaykh : Huh?
The student: Review or not?
The Shaykh : No, we are done, we will continue with the vocative, and by Allah, we do not know if you want to? Hmm?
The student: We will review.
