"مُمتِع"

Translation: fun

[deactivated user]

Mumtaaz is literally" perfect"
Mumti3 is literally"joyful"

[fredefred]

Do ممتع and ممتاز have the same root?

[AhmadMurcii]

No. The root of "ممتع" is (م.ت.ع) and the root of "ممتاز" is (م.ي.ز)

[hhh_hh_h_hh_hhh]

Root of ممتاز is م ت ز, I think you mistook ت as ي

[GabrielBou109736]

Thanks both of you!
What's the use of the مُ prefix in both those words?

[samstyan99]

It shows that the word is an adjective

[GabrielBou109736]

Is it the same for the job related words we've learned so far: translator, teacher, accountant, engineer, and does it apply to every other job?

How do you pronounce "3"?!

This video was helpful to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0ro6b50-Lk

[Dave-O.]

Thanks very much "bootfall". That has helped.

[djmcosmo]

From what I can hear, "3" seems to be pronounced like an English short "ă", but further back in the throat. It seems to be more of a "modifier" of other letters' pronunciation, rather than an individual sound itself.

[AgodawgOcean]

It a consonant in its own right.

[mariam744308]

ع

[Dave-O.]

I already know how to spell it, but still need to know how to pronounce it!

[shananangj]

its ع but there are no letters to make the same sound as it

[ninjaa2k7]

It's like alphabet 'a' but you pronounce it deep from your throat

[DaniyaMSha]

We pronounce it as 'Aiya'

[Dave-O.]

I know how to pronounce the name of the letter (or Ayn) but I still don't know how to pronounce it in an actual word.

[Fresh99012]

So the diacritic that's on the ت can be either "i" or "e"?

[LindaBacon2]

The transliteration is a short "i", but the pronunciation varies in Duo, depending on the word. I am not a native speaker, so it is still difficult for me to distinguish some of the vowel sounds used.

[Elissavet_8]

Is the correct pronunciation mumte3 or mumti3? Is There a native speaker that could, please, explain when the diacritic for the vowel "i" is pronounced as such and when as e (ε)? Is it a matter of region or of Duolingo TTS mispronouncing it?

[Amanesse77]

I don't think Standard Arabic has native speakers

[helalch]

Where do i get to know this meaning?
