What is I'raab?

ما هو الإعراب؟

I'raab is the system of grammatical analysis in Arabic. It tells us the role each word plays in a sentence and why it has a certain vowel ending.

When you do I'raab on a word, you produce a statement that describes exactly what the word is doing grammatically. This is essential for reading Classical Arabic correctly — especially the Quran.

الكِتَابُ : مُبْتَدَأ مَرْفُوعٌ وَعَلَامَةُ رَفْعِهِ الضَّمَّةُ الظَّاهِرَةُ عَلَى آخِرِهِ

"The book" — Subject (Mubtada), in the nominative state, and the sign of its nominative is the apparent Dammah at the end.

This is a complete I'raab statement. By the end of this tutorial, you'll know how to build one.

Think of I'raab as answering the question: "What is this word doing in the sentence, and how can I prove it?"
