العنصر الاول من عناصر الجملة هو الفاعل
Subject
A subject must be a noun, a pronoun, or any structure that functions as a noun
الفاعل يجب ان يكون اسما, او ضميرا, او اي تركيب يحل محل الاسم ويعمل عمله
قد يأتي الفاعل اسما
Nouns
Nouns might come singular or plural
الاسماء قد تأتي في الجملة مفردة او في صيغة الجمع
To make a singular noun plural, we usually add s or es at the end of it
Examples:
Coat~~> coats
Cat~~~> cats
Beach~~~> beaches
We have two kinds of nouns:
1. Common nouns الاسماء الشائعة
2. Proper nouns اسماء العلم
A. Proper nouns are usually names of persons, rivers, countries, cities, etc
Examples: Albert Lawson, Toledo, Horace Mann Junior High School, Aunt Louise
Proper nouns are always capitalized and rarely come in a plural form
ملاحظة: اسماء العلم نادرا ما تجمع
B. Common nouns name any member in a group or class
Examples: dog, cat, table, lamp, computer, etc
Common nouns are usually pluralized and not capitalized
غالبا ما نستطيع ان نستخرج صيغة جمع من الاسم الشائع
How can we distinguish a noun in a sentence?
كيف نستطيع أن نميز الاسم داخل الجملة؟
1. Nouns always follow the articles the, a, an
Examples: a dog, a cat, an engine, an angel, the man, the woman
2. Nouns are usually preceded by an adjective
تسبق الاسماء عادة بصفات
Examples: a beautiful lady, a handsome man, a great lesson
Adjectives usually come between the article and the noun
3. Nouns can be distinguished by noticing some specific suffixes
Examples: age [breakage]; ence [insistence]; ance [resistance]; dom [kingdom]; hood [childhood]; ion [prevention]; ism [nationalism]; ment [movement]; ness [firmness]; ure [exposure]; er [teacher]; or [visitor]
قد يأتي الفاعل ضميرا
