Correct Answer
A. تُوتExplanation
The word "تُوت" has a long vowel. In Arabic, long vowels are indicated by a diacritic called "ٌ" which is placed above the letter. In this word, the letter "و" is followed by the diacritic "ٌ" which signifies a long vowel sound. The other options do not have this diacritic, indicating that they have short vowels.Rate this question:

It is represented by two small diagonal lines (ًٌٍ) above or below the letter. This diacritic changes the pronunciation of the letter and adds a nasal sound to it. So, the correct answer is the double vowelling that makes the sound of 'noon'.Rate this question:

WHich one is a sun letter?
-
ب
-
ع
-
ص
-

Correct Answer
A. صExplanation
The letter "ص" is a sun letter because it belongs to the group of Arabic letters that undergo assimilation when followed by the definite article "ال" (al). This means that the "ص" sound changes to a "س" sound when preceded by "ال". The other letters listed in the question, "ب", "ع", and "ج", do not undergo this assimilation and are not considered sun letters.Rate this question:

WHich one is a sun letter?
-
ط
-
غ
-
م
-
و
Correct Answer
A. طExplanation
The correct answer is ط because it is a sun letter. In Arabic, there are two types of letters: sun letters and moon letters. Sun letters are those that are followed by a definite article "ال" (al) and cause assimilation of the letter "ل" (l) in the definite article. ط is a sun letter because when "ال" (al) is added before it, the "ل" (l) becomes assimilated and the pronunciation changes to "at-ta".Rate this question:
