LinguaThe unit in three patterns
| Topic | Pattern |
|---|---|
| Hobbies | أُحِبُّ الْقِرَاءَةَ / أُحِبُّ أَنْ أَقْرَأَ |
| Weather | الْجَوُّ حَارٌّ / فِي الشِّتَاءِ |
| Inviting | هَلْ تُرِيدُ أَنْ…؟ / مَا رَأْيُكَ فِي…؟ |
A hobby noun takes the article and -a after أُحِبُّ; a verb needs أَنْ and ends in -a. The weather is الْجَوُّ + an adjective, with no verb; seasons go with فِي.
فِي الْخَرِيفِ أُحِبُّ التَّصْوِيرَ فِي الْحَدِيقَةِ.In autumn I like taking photos in the park.
To invite, use هَلْ تُرِيدُ أَنْ…؟ or مَا رَأْيُكَ فِي…؟. Yes: بِكُلِّ سُرُورٍ. No, politely: لِلْأَسَفِ or آسِفٌ and a reason. Then نَلْتَقِي + place + time.
مَا رَأْيُكَ فِي السِّبَاحَةِ غَدًا؟ – فِكْرَةٌ جَمِيلَةٌ! الْجَوُّ حَارٌّ.How about swimming tomorrow? – Good idea! It is hot.
