I mean, if you're going to teach that the feminine genitive attached pronoun is -ik and not -ki, the least you can do is mark the kaaf so it says -ikii, or alternatively -ik, instead of -ika, which isn't even vernacular Arabic. EITHER زَوْجِكِ OR زَوْجِكْ

But, tsuj1g1r1, there's no fatha over the kaaf, is there! It's only there in the audio. And by this stage we (at least I) have got used to extra vowels all over the place. Water off a duck's back. I put it down to Arabic's aversion to consonant clusters. I'm probably wrong, it's probably to do with declensions that I haven't been taught yet, but it keeps me happy.
