Arabic Grammar
Arabic grammar has almost the same structure as English grammar.
We arrange words to make proper sentences. Word level grammar covers verbs and tenses, nouns, adverbs, etc. Sentence level grammar covers phrases, clauses, reported speech, etc.
the structure and system of Arabic grammar in general, usually considered to consist of syntax and morphology
We have 2 types of Arabic grammar (Classical Arabic and Modern Standard Arabic, which have largely the same grammar) and of the colloquial spoken varieties of Arabic. The grammar of the two types is largely similar in its particulars. Generally, the grammar of Classical Arabic is described first, followed by the areas in which the colloquial variants tend to differ (note that not all colloquial variants have the same grammar).
The differences between the classical/standard and the colloquial Arabic are the loss of morphological markings of grammatical case
In this course, we are going to learn both grammars, from scratch to the advanced and professional levels
