For example, the word ''kitāb'' "book" can be made definite by prefixing it with ''al-'', resulting in ''al-kitāb'' "the book". Consequently, ''al-'' is typically translated as ":wikt:the, the" in English. Unlike most other Arabic particles, ''al-'' is always prefixed to another word and never stands alone. Consequently, many dictionaries do not list it, and it is almost invariably ignored in collation, as it is not an intrinsic part of the word. ''Al-'' does not inflect for grammatical gender, gender, grammatical number, number or grammatical case.

Sun And Moon Letters
In Arabic and Maltese, all consonants are classified into two distinct groups known as sun letters ( ', ) and moon letters (Arabic: ', ) This distinction affects the way the definite article (equivalent to " the" in English) is assimilated or pronounced before consonants: when a word begins with a sun letter, the definite article assimilates with the initial consonant of the word. The names stem from how the definite article interacts with the nouns " Sun" and "Moon" in Arabic (and Maltese). In Arabic, al-shams (“the Sun”) becomes ash-shams (assimilating the lām), while al-qamar (“the Moon”) remains unchanged. Similarly, in Maltese, "the Sun" is ix-xemx (with assimilation), while "the Moon" is il-qamar (without assimilation). Rule When followed by a sun letter, the of the Arabic definite article assimilates to the initial consonant of the following noun, resulting in a doubled consonant. For example, "the Nile" is pronounced , not . When the Arabic definite ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] [Amazon] |

Construct Case
In Afro-Asiatic languages, the first noun in a genitive phrase that consists of a possessed noun followed by a possessor noun often takes on a special morphological form, which is termed the construct state (Latin ''status constructus''). For example, in Arabic, Maltese and Hebrew, the word for "queen" standing alone is ''malika'' , ''reġina'' and ''malka'' respectively, but when the word is possessed, as in the phrase " Queen of Sheba" (literally "Sheba's Queen"; or, rather, "Queen-of Sheba"), it becomes ''malikat sabaʾ'' , ''Reġinet Saba'' and ''malkat šəva'' respectively, in which ''malikat'' and ''malkat'' are the construct state (possessed) form and ''malikah'' and ''malka'' are the absolute (unpossessed) form. In Geʽez, the word for "queen" is ንግሥት nəgə''ś''t, but in the construct state it is ንግሥተ, as in the phrase " heQueen of Sheba" ንግሥታ ሣባ nəgə''śta śābā.'' .
