Ohhhh so nice of you dear Jonne, thanks. Let me see if I got it all.

I got about the cat and the dog, except what you said here : *doesn't know* aqwat?? qutuun?? - qittaat

hehehe i am very unsure about the masc. plurar of qitt AHAHAHA YOU DO NOT KNOW AH ? LOLLLLLLLLLL

The difference between KALB (dog) and QALB (heart) is very clear in pronunciation. KALB - a simple K while QALB - I bring it from my throat putting my tongue up (like ..hum almost a sound of when I am coughing lol ).
I'm a good explainer, arn't i :P ? Yes.....you are perfect!!

Humm .. Sad and Seen .. I understood that - SEEN is weak and SAD is strong or emphatic, and if there is an "A "letter next to them, with the strong SAD ... "SA" this vowel is spelled weakly while the weak S of SEEN makes "A" vowell stronger. " SA " - is that????

hummm yeah i guess. i mean, sad (= 9) like in 9abreen. the a is like the ah sound. HUMFS

ZAY and ZA - like in the previous example. ZA is emphatic and stronger while ZAY is weaker or common Z. Which words could I compare here? For eg: ZA sound ( zebra) and ZAY sound ( zoo) ?

za ظ it's like very hard th sound.. between d and th.. and zay, that's the normal zzz sound. So I have to put my tongue up (not like in "Q" - but coming near my teeth? )

exactly. put your tongue against your upper teeth and say za lol OH GOD !!! I`LL TRY THAT IN FRONT OF A MIRROR ! lol

3ain is a consonant, as kaf or meem.
hamza is too.. so
ana starts with hamza
3aliya starts with 3ain
but anyhow, two of them start with alif.. nice, huh?
so what i'm trying to say is that.. every word that starts with a vowel starts with hamza. So if I need an A, E, I , O or U - I have to use ALIF - but with hamza up, down, or other signals right? To differ, a from e from i from u etc..

for a it's َأ for e/i it's إِ and for u/o it's أُ ya3ny for a you put alif and a hamza above it + fat7a above hamza. for u the same except damma instead of fat7a. for i or e you put alif with hamza under it + kasra under hamza. fat7a and kasra are something like ´ but longer and damma is like tiny waw.

3ain is different.. it's something that starts from your throat, like if you're throwing up. try making that sound, without a vowel.. then add a and you have 3a. like :throw up: uuuuuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh lollllll ok I GOT IT.. VERY EASY ENDEED

lol it is :P ask asma to record 3ain 333aaaiiinn for you - ASMINHAAAAAAA COME HERE TO THROW UP FOR US ahahahaa . . WE ARE VERY INtERESTED TO SEE THAT!! lol

sometimes it sounds as it starts with alif. it starts with 3ain anyway. it's a consonant. THAT PART SUCKS!!!!!!!!

hehe..but you can nearly always hear if it's 3ain or not. tho when people say ya3ny it often sounds like yaany. OHHHHH YES OF COURSE !!

Jonne

haha..mm i'll found out that thing about qitt for you!

Nana_Brazil

Better find out how I will manage so many sounds ..throats, throw ups, etc.. buaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Jonne

hahaha.. learn finnish, it doesn't have any difficult sounds :D

Nana_Brazil

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr how funny

Jonne

hahahahaha

Asminha

Lol..You guys mixed up my mind, each one quotes what the other one says, and it sounds like a reptition to me!!

I got only that you both couldn't tell about the masculine plural of cat; it's :
QiTaTun = قطط

By the way, I likes to always mention "tanween", which means if you don't know : the double vowel in the end of the word, which makes you know it's undefinite :-)
