This post deals with conjugation of verbs that have a final vowel. They are called weak verbs(الفعل الناقص), e.g. (رَمَى) “threw” and (نما) “grew”, etc. In the past tense, the final vowel is returned to its origin, and it disappears with some pronouns, i.e. (هي), (هم) and (هما) feminine only for the last one. Consider the examples below.

Jason Kilborn:
Did you mean to put a faTHa above the miim in both of the hom forms (ramau and namau)? I thought it was Damma (ramuu, namuu) . . .
Aziza:
Ahlan Jason,
It is fatHa not Damma.
Salaam,
Aziza
Laiba:
you mean instead of saying: ana ramai
I should say: RAMAITU?!
