"Seth has a new skirt."

Translation: عِنْد سيث تَنّورة جَديدة.

[Kristoff-Johan]

Perhaps he is a fashion designer?

[Jason331104]

I think Seth must be an Arabic girl name because it used the female version of name.

[Mar247594]

No the word skirt is a feminine noun

[Jason331104]

*female version of name.

[ajhaze]

real men wear skirts

[FJ7FJ]

Scots wear skirts.

[DuoLiNxo]

Kilt to be more precise

[Quikkmaffs]

Why diacritic ِ when its pronounced 3a?

[FerencziDn2]

I think the pronounciation is closer to 3ind than 3and

[Away54]

Quikkmaffs, FerencziDn2:

It is "3ind" where the "3ain" ع letter is with kasra, ie. "3i" عِ . Furthermore, if we follow Standard, عِنْد is pronounced as "3inda" عِنْدَ -- and is always as "3inda" at any case.

(Edit: I got a downvote without any reason for my valid answer -- it really destroy my learning spirit. I think I should leave this forum soon. I feel so useless here).

[Talha640807]

What is the correct pronunciation tannura, tannuratan, tannurata or tannuratun. And why?

[FranciscoGTR]

The first word is the dictionary form and the other words are examples of nunation

[AniOhevYayin]

My understanding is that the first word needs to be عنده because it's Seth, grammatically masculine. Is that correct? I mention this point because عنده was not one of the options.

[Dreamer71]

Ok, I'll try to explain this without getting verbose. عند
is a preposition (at/with, although we translate it as "have"), and the various letters after it are the pronoun suffixes.
I have عندي
You have عندك
He has عنده
In this case, we are using the noun (Seth) instead of a pronoun suffix, so it's just عند

[AniOhevYayin]

Thanks

Seth is a woman?

[edderiofer]

Given the other exercises, one can assume that Seth is male and has a skirt.

There's nothing wrong with a man having a skirt. Even if you insist that skirts are only for women (not exactly a great view to be holding IMO), perhaps he has just bought the skirt as a present for his wife, and is currently in possession of it. In this case, this is a perfectly reasonable sentence to say.

[WNT-]

Save the political correctness and just teach the language without confusing people.

[GabrielBou109736]

That's the point: they make confusing sentences to check if of you understand the grammar rules and apply them correctly depending on the context and not just by habit. In this case you would think tannoorah would get the -tik suffix, but it's a trap, you have to think twice about the right thing before speaking.
