      QUESTIONS

      The easiest way of asking a question in Arabic is to use a question word at the beginning of the phrase or sentence, e.g.:

What’s this? maa haadha?
Which man? ayyu rajul?
Which lady? ayyatu imra’a?
Who are you? man anta?
Why did the girl leave? limaadhaa kharajat al-bintu?
When did the plane land? mataa habatat at-taa’ira?
Where did he buy a shirt? ayna ishtaraa qamiis?

      An affirmative sentence (statement) may be turned into an interrogative one (question) by means of the word hal, e.g.:

The boy ate akala al-waladu
Did the boy eat? hal akala al-waladu?

      NEGATION

      Negation is expressed differently for nominal as opposed to verbal sentences.

      When negating nominal and adjectival phrases, laysa or one of its variants is inserted after the noun or pronoun to which it refers, e.g:

I am not angry lastu ghaadiban (literally “not I angry”)

      Laysa combines with the personal pronouns as follows:

I lastu
You (singular, masculine) lasta
You (singuar, feminine) lasti
He laysa
She laysat
We lasnaa
You (plural, masculine) lastum
You (plural, feminine) lastunna
They laysuu

      In addition, there are four verbal negation words used according to the tense of the verb, e.g.:

laa present laa ashrab I’m not drinking
lan future lan ashrab I won’t drink
lam past lam ashrab I didn’t drink
maa past/continuing maa sharibtu I haven’t drunk
