Thus, Question Words in Arabic English learning courses
Question words in English are divided into two types:
Firstly, Yes / No Question with the verb to do:
| Hal tohibo assamak? For male.
Hal tohibi assamak? For female |
هل تحب السمك؟ | Do you like fish? |
| Hal Nora tohibo assamak? | هل نورا تحب السمك؟ | Does Nora like fish? |
| Hal Akal Ali alghadaa? | هل أكل على الغداء؟ | Did Ali eat lunch? |
Secondly, Yes/No Questions with v. to be
| Hal ana gayyed? For male.
Hal ana gayyedah? For female. |
هل انا جيد؟ | Am I good? |
| Hal howa mu’alim? | هل هو معلم؟ | Is he a teacher? |
| Hal anta Talib? For male.
Hal anti talibah? For female |
هل أنت طالب؟
هل أنتِ طالبة؟ |
Are you a student? |
| Hal kana yala’bu? | هل كان يلعب؟ | Was he playing? |
| Hal kano yal’aboon? | هل كانوا يأكلون؟ | Were they eating? |
Thus, we notice that all auxiliaries which start yes\ no questions in English are translated to one same word in Arabic which is “Hal”. Also, it is the same thing with auxiliaries of “v. to have” (have- has- had) when they come at the beginning of yes/No questions. To sum up, they all are translated to the same one word in Arabic which is “Hal”.
