In the Arabic language, a hamza (هَمْزَة) at the beginning of a word can be of two types: هَمْزَةُ الوَصْلِ or هَمْزَةُ القَطْعِ. This lesson will introduce us to هَمْزَةُ الوَصْلِ.
اِبْــنُ الـمُديرِ Son of the Director
خَالِدٌ وَابْــنُ الـمُديرِ Khalid and the Son of the Director
🔸 In the first example, we pronounce هَمْزَةُ الوَصْلِ[ibnul-Mudir]
🔸 In the second case, we do not pronounce هَمْزَةُ الوَصْلِ[wa bnul-Mudir]
Remember that هَمْزَةُ الوَصْلِ is only pronounced at the beginning of a sentence. Also, pay attention to the constructions of الإضافة and الجرّ والمجرور used in the audio, which we learned about in previous lessons
