The importance of Modern Standard Arabic was reemphasised in the public sphere by the revolutionary government, and efforts to accord any formal language status to the Egyptian vernacular were ignored. Egyptian Arabic was identified as a mere dialect, one that was not spoken even in all of Egypt, as almost all of <a href="/wiki/Upper_Egypt" title="Upper Egypt">Upper Egypt</a> speaks <a href="/wiki/Sa%27idi_Arabic" class="mw-redirect" title="Sa'idi Arabic">Sa'idi Arabic</a>. Though the revolutionary government heavily sponsored the use of the Egyptian vernacular in films, plays, television programmes, and music, the prerevolutionary use of Modern Standard Arabic in official publications was retained.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] Linguistic commentators[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Words_to_watch#Unsupported_attributions" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch">who?</a>] have noted the multi-faceted approach of the Egyptian revolutionaries towards the Arabic language. Whereas Egypt's first <a href="/wiki/President_of_Egypt" title="President of Egypt">president</a>, Mohammed Naguib exhibited a preference for using Modern Standard Arabic in his public speeches, his successor, <a href="/wiki/Gamal_Abdel_Nasser" title="Gamal Abdel Nasser">Gamal Abdel Nasser</a> was renowned for using the vernacular and for punctuating his speeches with traditional Egyptian words and expressions. Conversely, Modern Standard Arabic was the norm for state news outlets, including newspapers, magazines, television, and radio. That was especially true of Egypt's national broadcasting company, the <a href="/wiki/ERTU" class="mw-redirect" title="ERTU">Arab Radio and Television Union</a>, which was established with the intent of providing content for the entire <a href="/wiki/Arab_world" title="Arab world">Arab world</a>, not merely Egypt, hence the need to broadcast in the standard, rather than the vernacular, language. The <a href="/wiki/Voice_of_the_Arabs" title="Voice of the Arabs">Voice of the Arabs</a> radio station, in particular, had an audience from across the region, and the use of anything other than Modern Standard Arabic was viewed as eminently incongruous.

with the result forming a single phonological word rather than separate words. Clitics can be attached to the following types of words: <ul><li>A clitic pronoun attached to a noun indicates possession: béet "house", béet-i "my house"; sikkíina "knife", sikkínt-i "my knife"; ʔább "father", ʔabúu-ya "my father". The form of a pronoun may vary depending on the phonological form of the word being attached to (ending with a vowel or with one or two consonants), and the noun being attached to may also have a separate "construct" form before possessive clitic suffixes.</li> <li>A clitic pronoun attached to a preposition indicates the object of the preposition: minno "from it (masculine object)", ʕaleyha "on it (feminine object)"</li> <li>A clitic pronoun attached to a verb indicates the object of the verb: ʃúft "I saw", ʃúft-u "I saw him", ʃuft-áha "I saw her".</li></ul> With verbs, indirect object clitic pronouns can be formed using the preposition li- plus a clitic. Both direct and indirect object clitic pronouns can be attached to a single verb: agíib "I bring", agíb-hu "I bring it", agib-húu-lik "I bring it to you", m-agib-hu-lkíi-ʃ "I do not bring it to you". <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Verbs">Verbs</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Egyptian_Arabic&action=edit&section=18" title="Edit section: Verbs">edit</a>]</div> Verbs in Arabic are based on a stem made up of three or four consonants. The set of consonants communicates the basic meaning of a verb. Changes to the vowels in between the consonants, along with prefixes and/or suffixes, specify grammatical functions such as tense, person, and number, in addition to changes in the meaning of the verb that embody grammatical concepts such as <a href="/wiki/Causative" title="Causative">causative</a>, <a href="/wiki/Intensive" class="mw-redirect" title="Intensive">intensive</a>, <a href="/wiki/Passive_voice" title="Passive voice">passive</a> or <a href="/wiki/Reflexive_verb" title="Reflexive verb">reflexive</a>. Each particular <a href="/wiki/Lexical_verb" title="Lexical verb">lexical verb</a> is specified by two stems, one used for the past tense and one used for non-past tenses along with <a href="/wiki/Subjunctive_mood" title="Subjunctive mood">subjunctive</a> and <a href="/wiki/Imperative_mood" title="Imperative mood">imperative</a> moods. To the former stem, suffixes are added to mark the verb for person, number, and gender, while to the latter stem, a combination of prefixes and suffixes are added. (Very approximately, the prefixes specify the person and the suffixes indicate number and gender.) Since Arabic lacks an <a href="/wiki/Infinitive" title="Infinitive">infinitive</a>, the third person masculine singular past tense form serves as the "dictionary form" used to identify a verb. For example, the verb meaning "write" is often specified as kátab, which actually means "he wrote". In the paradigms below, a verb will be specified as kátab/yíktib (where kátab means "he wrote" and yíktib means "he writes"), indicating the past stem (katab-) and non-past stem (-ktib-, obtained by removing the prefix yi-). The verb classes in Arabic are formed along two axes. One axis (described as "form I", "form II", etc.) is used to specify grammatical concepts such as <a href="/wiki/Causative" title="Causative">causative</a>, <a href="/wiki/Intensive" class="mw-redirect" title="Intensive">intensive</a>, <a href="/wiki/Passive_voice" title="Passive voice">passive</a>, or <a href="/wiki/Reflexive_verb" title="Reflexive verb">reflexive</a>, and involves varying the stem form. For example, from the root K-T-B "write" is derived form I kátab/yíktib "write", form II káttib/yikáttib "cause to write", form III ká:tib/yiká:tib "correspond", etc. The other axis is determined by the particular consonants making up the root. For example, defective verbs have a W or Y as the last root consonant, which is often reflected in paradigms with an extra final vowel in the stem (e.g. ráma/yírmi "throw" from R-M-Y); meanwhile, hollow verbs have a W or Y as the middle root consonant, and the stems of such verbs appear to have only two consonants (e.g. gá:b/yigí:b "bring" from G-Y-B). <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Strong_verbs">Strong verbs</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Egyptian_Arabic&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: Strong verbs">edit</a>]</div> Strong verbs are those that have no "weakness" (e.g. W or Y) in the root consonants.

The verb láʔa/yilá:ʔi "find" is unusual in having a mixture of a form I past and form III present (note also the variations líʔi/yílʔa and láʔa/yílʔa). Verbs other than form I have consistent stem vowels. All such verbs have a in the past (hence form stems with -é:-, not -í:-). Forms V, VI, X and IIq have a in the present (indicated by boldface below); others have i; forms VII, VIIt, and VIII have i in both vowels of the stem (indicated by italics below); form IX verbs, including "defective" verbs, behave as regular doubled verbs: <ul><li>Form II: wádda/yiwáddi "take away"; ʔáwwa/yiʔáwwi "strengthen"</li> <li>Form III: ná:da/yiná:di "call"; dá:wa/yidá:wi "treat, cure"</li> <li>Form IV (rare, classicized): ʔárḍa/yírḍi "please, satisfy"</li> <li>Form V: itʔáwwa/yitʔáwwa "become strong"</li> <li>Form VI: itdá:wa/yitdá:wa "be treated, be cured"</li> <li>Form VII (rare in the Cairene dialect): inḥáka/yinḥíki "be told"</li> <li>Form VIIt: itnása/yitnísi "be forgotten"</li> <li>Form VIII: iʃtára/yiʃtíri "buy"</li> <li>Form IX (very rare): iḥláww/yiḥláww "be/become sweet"</li> <li>Form X: istákfa/yistákfa "have enough"</li> <li>Form Iq: need example</li> <li>Form IIq: need example</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Hollow_verbs">Hollow verbs</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Egyptian_Arabic&action=edit&section=28" title="Edit section: Hollow verbs">edit</a>]</div> Hollow have a W or Y as the middle root consonant.

As for the other forms: <ul><li>Form II, V doubled verbs are strong: ḥáddid/yiḥáddid "limit, fix (appointment)"</li> <li>Form III, IV, VI, VIII doubled verbs seem non-existent</li> <li>Form VII and VIIt doubled verbs (same stem vowel a in both stems): inbáll/yinbáll "be wetted", itʕádd/yitʕádd</li> <li>Form VIII doubled verbs (same stem vowel a in both stems): ihtámm/yihtámm "be interested (in)"</li> <li>Form IX verbs (automatically behave as "doubled" verbs, same stem vowel a in both stems): iḥmárr/yiḥmárr "be red, blush", iḥláww/yiḥláww "be sweet"</li> <li>Form X verbs (stem vowel either a or i in non-past): istaḥáʔʔ/yistaḥáʔʔ "deserve" vs. istaʕádd/yistaʕídd "be ready", istamárr/yistamírr "continue".</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Assimilated_verbs">Assimilated verbs</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Egyptian_Arabic&action=edit&section=33" title="Edit section: Assimilated verbs">edit</a>]</div> Assimilated verbs have W or Y as the first root consonant. Most of these verbs have been regularized in Egyptian Arabic, e.g. wázan/yíwzin "to weigh" or wíṣíl/yíwṣal "to arrive". Only a couple of irregular verbs remain, e.g. wíʔif/yúʔaf "stop" and wíʔiʕ/yúʔaʕ "fall" (see below). <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Doubly_weak_verbs">Doubly weak verbs</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Egyptian_Arabic&action=edit&section=34" title="Edit section: Doubly weak verbs">edit</a>]</div> "Doubly weak" verbs have more than one "weakness", typically a W or Y as both the second and third consonants. This term is in fact a misnomer, as such verbs actually behave as normal defective verbs (e.g. káwa/yíkwi "iron (clothes)" from K-W-Y, ʔáwwa/yiʔáwwi "strengthen" from ʔ-W-Y, dá:wa/yidá:wi "treat, cure" from D-W-Y). <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Irregular_verbs">Irregular verbs</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Egyptian_Arabic&action=edit&section=35" title="Edit section: Irregular verbs">edit</a>]</div> The irregular verbs are as follows: <ul><li>ídda/yíddi "give" (endings like a normal defective verb)</li> <li>wíʔif/yúʔaf "stop" and wíʔiʕ/yúʔaʕ "fall" (áʔaf, báʔaf, ḥáʔaf "I (will) stop"; úʔaf "stop!")</li> <li>kal/yá:kul "eat" and xad/yá:xud "take" (kalt, kal, kálit, kálu "I/he/she/they ate", also regular ákal, etc. "he/etc. ate"; á:kul, bá:kul, ḥá:kul "I (will) eat", yáklu "they eat"; kúl, kúli, kúlu "eat!"; wá:kil "eating"; mittá:kil "eaten")</li> <li>gé/yí:gi "come".

Verb roots are indicated schematically using capital letters to stand for consonants in the root: <ul><li>F = first consonant of root</li> <li>M = middle consonant of three-consonant root</li> <li>S = second consonant of four-consonant root</li> <li>T = third consonant of four-consonant root</li> <li>L = last consonant of root</li></ul> Hence, the root F-M-L stands for all three-consonant roots, and F-S-T-L stands for all four-consonant roots. (Traditional Arabic grammar uses F-ʕ-L and F-ʕ-L-L, respectively, but the system used here appears in a number of grammars of spoken Arabic dialects and is probably less confusing for English speakers, since the forms are easier to pronounce than those involving ʕ.) The following table lists the prefixes and suffixes to be added to mark tense, person, number and gender, and the stem form to which they are added. The forms involving a vowel-initial suffix, and corresponding stem PAv or NPv, are highlighted in silver. The forms involving a consonant-initial suffix, and corresponding stem PAc, are highlighted in gold. The forms involving a no suffix, and corresponding stem PA0 or NP0, are unhighlighted. <table class="wikitable"> <tbody><tr> <th colspan="2">Tense/Mood </th> <th colspan="2">Past </th> <th colspan="2">Non-Past </th></tr> <tr> <th colspan="2">Person </th> <th>Singular </th> <th>Plural </th> <th>Singular </th> <th>Plural </th></tr> <tr> <th colspan="2">1st </th> <td style="background:gold">PAc-t </td> <td style="background:gold">PAc-na </td> <td>a-NP0 </td> <td>ni-NP0 </td></tr> <tr> <th rowspan="2">2nd </th> <th>masculine </th> <td style="background:gold">PAc-t </td> <td style="background:gold" rowspan="2">PAc-tu </td> <td>ti-NP0 </td> <td style="background:silver" rowspan="2">ti-NPv-u </td></tr> <tr> <th>feminine </th> <td style="background:gold">PAc-ti </td> <td style="background:silver">ti-NPv-i </td></tr> <tr> <th rowspan="2">3rd </th> <th>masculine </th> <td>PA0 </td> <td style="background:silver" rowspan="2">PAv-u </td> <td>yi-NP0 </td> <td style="background:silver" rowspan="2">yi-NPv-u </td></tr> <tr> <th>feminine </th> <td style="background:silver">PAv-it </td> <td>ti-NP0 </td></tr> </tbody></table> The following table lists the verb classes along with the form of the past and non-past stems, active and passive participles, and verbal noun, in addition to an example verb for each class. Notes: <ul><li>Italicized forms are those that follow automatically from the regular rules of vowel shortening and deletion.</li> <li>Multisyllabic forms without a stress mark have variable stress, depending on the nature of the suffix added, following the regular rules of stress assignment.</li> <li>Many participles and verbal nouns have acquired an extended sense. In fact, participles and verbal nouns are the major sources for lexical items based on verbs, especially derived (i.e. non-Form-I) verbs.</li> <li>Some verb classes do not have a regular verbal noun form; rather, the verbal noun varies from verb to verb. Even in verb classes that do have a regular verbal noun form, there are exceptions. In addition, some verbs share a verbal noun with a related verb from another class (in particular, many passive verbs use the corresponding active verb's verbal noun, which can be interpreted in either an active or passive sense). Some verbs appear to lack a verbal noun entirely. (In such a case, a paraphrase would be used involving a clause beginning with inn.)</li> <li>Outside of Form I, passive participles as such are usually non-existent; instead, the active participle of the corresponding passive verb class (e.g. Forms V, VI, VIIt/VIIn for Forms II, III, I respectively) is used. The exception is certain verbs in Forms VIII and X that contain a "classicized" passive participle that is formed in imitation of the corresponding participle in <a href="/wiki/Classical_Arabic" title="Classical Arabic">Classical Arabic</a>, e.g. mistáʕmil "using", mustáʕmal "used".</li> <li>Not all forms have a separate verb class for hollow or doubled roots. When no such class is listed below, roots of that shape appear as strong verbs in the corresponding form, e.g. Form II strong verb ḍáyyaʕ/yiḍáyyaʕ "waste, lose" related to Form I hollow verb ḍá:ʕ/yiḍí:ʕ "be lost", both from root Ḍ-Y-ʕ.</li></ul> <table class="wikitable" style="text-align:center"> <tbody><tr> <th rowspan="5">Form </th> <th rowspan="5">Root Type </th> <th colspan="6">Stem

This negating <a href="/wiki/Circumfix" title="Circumfix">circumfix</a> is similar in function to the <a href="/wiki/French_language" title="French language">French</a> circumfix ne ... pas. It should also be noted that Coptic and Ancient Egyptian both had negative circumfix. The structure can end in a consonant /ʃ/ or in a vowel /i/, varying according to the individual or region. Nowadays speakers use /ʃ/. However, /ʃi/ was sometimes used stylistically, specially in the past, as attested in <a href="/wiki/Egyptian_films_of_the_1940s" class="mw-redirect" title="Egyptian films of the 1940s">old films</a>. The negative circumfix often surrounds the entire verbal composite including direct and indirect object pronouns: <ul><li>/ma-katab-hum-ˈliː-ʃ/ "he didn't write them to me"</li></ul> However, verbs in the future tense can instead use the prefix /miʃ/: <ul><li>/miʃ-ħa-ˈjiktib/ (or /ma-ħa-jikˈtibʃ/ "he won't write"</li></ul> Interrogative sentences can be formed by adding the negation <a href="/wiki/Clitic" title="Clitic">clitic</a> "(miʃ)" before the verb: <ul><li>Past: /ˈkatab/ "he wrote"; /miʃ-ˈkatab/ "didn't he write?"</li> <li>Present: /ˈjiktib/ "he writes"; /miʃ-bi-ˈjiktib/ "doesn't he write?"</li> <li>Future: /ħa-ˈjiktib/ "he will write"; /miʃ-ħa-ˈjiktib/ "won't he write?"</li></ul> Addition of the circumfix can cause complex changes to the verbal cluster, due to the application of the rules of vowel syncope, shortening, lengthening, insertion and elision described above: <ul><li>The addition of /ma-/ may trigger elision or syncope: <ul><li>A vowel following /ma-/ is elided: (ixtáːr) "he chose" → (maxtárʃ).</li> <li>A short vowel /i/ or /u/ in the first syllable may be deleted by syncope: (kíbir) "he grew" → (makbírʃ).</li></ul></li> <li>The addition of /-ʃ/ may result in vowel shortening or epenthesis: <ul><li>A final long vowel preceding a single consonant shortens: (ixtáːr) "he chose" → (maxtárʃ).</li> <li>An unstressed epenthetic /i/ is inserted when the verbal complex ends in two consonants: /kunt/ "I was" → (makúntiʃ).</li></ul></li> <li>In addition, the addition of /-ʃ/ triggers a stress shift, which may in turn result in vowel shortening or lengthening: <ul><li>The stress shifts to the syllable preceding /ʃ/: (kátab) "he wrote" → (makatábʃ).</li> <li>A long vowel in the previously stressed syllable shortens: (ʃáːfit) "she saw" → (maʃafítʃ); (ʃá:fu) "they saw" or "he saw it" → (maʃafú:ʃ).</li> <li>A final short vowel directly preceding /ʃ/ lengthens: (ʃáːfu) "they saw" or "he saw it" → (maʃafú:ʃ).</li></ul></li></ul> In addition, certain other morphological changes occur: <ul><li>(ʃafúː) "they saw him" → (maʃafuhúːʃ) (to avoid a clash with (maʃafúːʃ) "they didn't see/he didn't see him").</li> <li>(ʃáːfik) "He saw you (fem. sg.)" → (maʃafkíːʃ).</li> <li>(ʃúftik) "I saw you (fem. sg.)" → (maʃuftikíːʃ).</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Syntax">Syntax</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Egyptian_Arabic&action=edit&section=38" title="Edit section: Syntax">edit</a>]</div> In contrast with Classical Arabic, but much like the other <a href="/wiki/Varieties_of_Arabic" title="Varieties of Arabic">varieties of Arabic</a>, Egyptian Arabic prefers <a href="/wiki/Subject%E2%80%93verb%E2%80%93object" class="mw-redirect" title="Subject–verb–object">subject–verb–object</a> (SVO) <a href="/wiki/Word_order" title="Word order">word order</a>; CA and to a lesser extent MSA prefer <a href="/wiki/Verb%E2%80%93subject%E2%80%93object" class="mw-redirect" title="Verb–subject–object">verb–subject–object</a> (VSO).

(April 2011)</div></td></tr></tbody></table> Egyptian Arabic is used in most social situations, with Modern Standard and Classical Arabic generally being used only in writing and in highly religious and/or formal situations. However, within Egyptian Arabic, there is a wide range of variation. <a href="/wiki/El-Said_Badawi" title="El-Said Badawi">El-Said Badawi</a> identifies three distinct levels of Egyptian Arabic-based chiefly on the quantity of non-Arabic lexical items in the vocabulary: ʿĀmmiyyat al-Musaqqafīn (Cultured Colloquial or <a href="/wiki/Formal_Spoken_Arabic" class="mw-redirect" title="Formal Spoken Arabic">Formal Spoken Arabic</a>), ʿĀmmiyyat al-Mutanawwirīn (Enlightened or Literate Colloquial), and ʿĀmmiyyat al-'Ummiyīn (Illiterate Colloquial).<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHindsBadawi1986VII–X-93">[93]</a> Cultured Colloquial/Formal Spoken Arabic is characteristic of the educated classes and is the language of discussion of high-level subjects, but it is still Egyptian Arabic; it is characterized by use of technical terms imported from foreign languages and MSA and closer attention to the pronunciation of certain letters (particularly <a href="/wiki/%D9%82" class="mw-redirect" title="ق">qāf</a>). It is relatively standardized and, being closer to the standard, it is understood fairly well across the <a href="/wiki/Arab_world" title="Arab world">Arab world</a>.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHindsBadawi1986VII–X-93">[93]</a> On the opposite end of the spectrum, Illiterate Colloquial, common to rural areas and to working-class neighborhoods in the cities, has an almost-exclusively Arabic vocabulary; the few loanwords generally are very old borrowings (e.g. جمبرى gambari, [ɡæmˈbæɾi] "<a href="/wiki/Shrimp" title="Shrimp">shrimp</a>", from <a href="/wiki/Italian_language" title="Italian language">Italian</a> gamberi, "shrimp" (pl.)) or refer to technological items that find no or poor equivalents in Arabic (e.g. تلفزيون tel(e)vezyōn/tel(e)fezyōn [tel(e)vezˈjoːn, tel(e)fezˈjoːn], <a href="/wiki/Television" title="Television">television</a>).<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHindsBadawi1986VII–X-93">[93]</a> Enlightened Colloquial (ʿĀmmiyyat al-Mutanawwirīn) is the language of those who have had some schooling and are relatively affluent; loanwords tend to refer to items of popular culture, consumer products, and fashions. It is also understood widely in the Arab world, as it is the <a href="/wiki/Lingua_franca" title="Lingua franca">lingua franca</a> of <a href="/wiki/Egyptian_cinema" class="mw-redirect" title="Egyptian cinema">Egyptian cinema</a> and television.<a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEHindsBadawi1986VII–X-93">[93]</a> In contrast to MSA and most other varieties of Arabic, Egyptian Arabic has a form of the <a href="/wiki/T-V_distinction" class="mw-redirect" title="T-V distinction">T-V distinction</a>. In the singular, انت enta/enti is acceptable in most situations, but to address clear social superiors (e.g. older persons, superiors at work, certain government officials), the form حضرتك ḥaḍretak/ḥaḍretek, meaning "Your <a href="/wiki/Grace_(style)" title="Grace (style)">Grace</a>" is preferred (compare <a href="/wiki/Spanish_language" title="Spanish language">Spanish</a> <a href="/wiki/Spanish_pronouns#The_use_of_vusted_and_vuestra_merced" title="Spanish pronouns">usted</a>).
