In this post, I explain the use of the case marking system with sound masculine plurals. There are 2 endings that can be used with sound masculine plural nouns and adjectives, i.e. (\u0648\u0646<\/span>) and (\u064a\u0646<\/span>). In the nominative case, i.e. when the noun is used as the subject of a verbal sentence or as a subject or predicate of a nominal sentence, the first ending (\u0648\u0646<\/span>) is used, e.g.<\/p>\n

\u064a\u0639\u0645\u0644 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0646\u062f\u0633\u0648\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0635\u0631\u064a\u0648\u0646 \u0641\u064a \u0646\u0641\u0633 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0631\u0643\u0629. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe Egyptian engineers work at the same company.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u0627\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0646\u062f\u0633\u0648\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0635\u0631\u064a\u0648\u0646 \u0645\u062c\u062a\u0647\u062f\u0648\u0646.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Egyptian engineers are hard-working.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

When the noun is used as an object, the case is accusative and the ending (\u064a\u0646<\/span>) is used, e.g.<\/p>\n

\u0642\u0627\u0628\u0644\u0646\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0646\u062f\u0633\u064a\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0635\u0631\u064a\u064a\u0646.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe met the Egyptian engineers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

When the noun is used after a preposition or after the first word of an idaafa construction, the case is genitive and the ending (\u064a\u0646<\/span>) is used, e.g.<\/p>\n

\u062a\u0643\u0644\u0645\u062a \u0645\u0639 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0646\u062f\u0633\u064a\u0646 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0635\u0631\u064a\u064a\u0646.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI spoke with the Egyptian engineers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u0634\u0631\u0643\u0629 \u0627\u0644\u0645\u0647\u0646\u062f\u0633\u064a\u0646 \u0643\u0628\u064a\u0631\u0629.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe company of the engineers is big.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
