u, a, i made long

Akh, "brother", and ab, "father", take a long vowel at the end when a word or a pronoun follows, and dhū, "owner of", when a word follows: ū in the nominative, ā in the accusative, ī in the genitive. With -ī, "my", there is no such ending: it takes the ending's place, as lesson 14 showed in abī, so akhī serves in every case.

وَأَخُوهُ
Ses parties
  1. وَand
  2. أَخُوbrother
  3. هُhim, his; it, its
Coran 12:8

Wa-akhūhu is wa, then akhū, then hu, "his". The corpus marks akhū nominative.

أَخَا
Ses parties
  1. أَخَاbrother
Coran 46:21

Akhā, and the corpus marks it accusative. The word after it is the second noun of an iḍāfah, as lesson 8 taught.

أَخِيهِ
Ses parties
  1. أَخِيbrother
  2. هِhim, his; it, its
Coran 80:34

Akhīhi is akhī and hi. The corpus marks akhī genitive; after ī, the pronoun hu is said hi, as lesson 12 taught.

أَبِى
Ses parties
  1. أَبِىfather
Coran 111:1

Abī, the same ending on ab: the corpus marks it genitive. Here ī is the ending and not "my": the corpus shows no pronoun on it. The word after it is the second noun of the iḍāfah.

Dhū

Dhū does not stand alone: it is the first noun of an iḍāfah, and says that someone or something has what follows it.

ذُو
Ses parties
  1. ذُوowner of, having
Coran 55:12

Dhū, nominative.

ذَا
Ses parties
  1. ذَا
Coran 90:15

Dhā, accusative. The corpus gives this form a lemma of its own, dhā, and does not count it under dhū.

ذِى
Ses parties
  1. ذِىowner of, having
Coran 90:14

Dhī, genitive, and the corpus gives it the lemma dhū again. In all three the ending follows the case, as it does on akh and ab.

In a sentence

Three sentences written for practice show the same noun in three cases.

Une phrase écrite pour s’exercer
أَخُوكَ فِي الْبَيْتِ

Your brother is in the house.

Akhūka: nominative, the subject of the sentence.

Une phrase écrite pour s’exercer
رَأَيْتُ أَخَاكَ

I saw your brother.

Akhāka: accusative, the one seen.

Une phrase écrite pour s’exercer
ذَهَبْتُ مَعَ أَخِيكَ

I went with your brother.

Akhīka: genitive, after maʿa.

More words for people

Ābāʾ, abnāʾ and azwāj are broken plurals, the kind lesson 9 explained.

وَءَابَآؤُكُم
Ses parties
  1. وَand
  2. ءَابَآؤُfathers, forefathers
  3. كُمyou, your (more than two)
Coran 53:23

Wa-ābāʾukum is wa, then ābāʾu, then kum, "your". Ābāʾ is taught as a word of its own, because the corpus gives it a lemma of its own beside ab, and marks it masculine plural.

أَبْنَآءَهُمْ
Ses parties
  1. أَبْنَآءَson
  2. هُمْthey (as the doer of a verb); them, their
Coran 58:22

Abnāʾahum is abnāʾa and hum, "their". The corpus gives it the lemma ibn, "son", and marks it masculine plural.

أَزْوَٰجًا
Ses parties
  1. أَزْوَٰجًاspouse, one of a pair
Coran 78:8

Azwājan: the corpus gives it the lemma zawj, and marks it masculine plural.

ٱلنِّسَآءَ
Ses parties
  1. ٱلthe
  2. نِّسَآءَwomen
Coran 65:1

An-nisāʾa is al- and nisāʾ. The corpus marks it feminine plural. It has no singular from the same root.

ٱلْإِنسَـٰنُ
Ses parties
  1. ٱلْthe
  2. إِنسَٰنُhuman being
Coran 99:3

Al-insānu is al- and insān, and the corpus marks it masculine, nominative.
