T category legend

Form I — T1 Active Perfect (14 person indices)

Source: R006 structural Form I; R007 T1 diagnosis; R008 suffix membership/index fallback.

Example root: ك ت ب. These conjugations are illustrative; full-pipeline validation is not claimed.

Recognition notes

• R006 recognizes Form I strong/doubled perfect when suff1 is present; it does not assign T or index.
• R007 supplies T1 active-perfect hypotheses using suffix-family and vocalized-surface evidence.
• R008 prioritizes matched suffix-membership indices and uses a perfect-suffix fallback only when membership indices are absent.
• Indices 8 and 11 share the same physical suffix ْتُمَا; both are retained unless separately disambiguated.
• R008 overrides the fallback to index 1 for certain Form I defective-final perfect surfaces ending in ا or ى; the final weak realization is not automatically the dual suffix.
• This table does not assert the outcome of R009, dictionary validation, or full token processing.

Form I — T2 Active Imperfect (14 person indices)

Source: R006 Form I structural evidence; R007 T2 active-indicative diagnosis; R008 suffix membership and prefix/index reconciliation.

Example root: ك ت ب. Illustrative strong-root conjugations; full-pipeline validation is not claimed. The prefix and ending are separate physical components.

Recognition notes

• R007 identifies T2 using the imperfect prefix, active-voice vowel evidence and suff2 membership; R008 assigns the person index.
• R008 intersects ending-based index candidates with prefix-based index candidates. A shared surface such as تَكْتُبُ can retain more than one index.
• Indices 8 and 11 share the same dual surface. The table documents grammatical indices, not unique spellings.
• Weak-final, hollow, and doubled verbs require their own structural validation; these examples describe only the strong-root model.
• R008's conservative fallback inventory does not independently list every indicative ending shown here. For example, the feminine-plural ending requires verified suffix membership rather than assuming fallback coverage.

Form I — T3 Active Imperfect Subjunctive (14 person indices)

Example root: ك ت ب. These are illustrative grammatical forms, not asserted R006–R009 or dictionary matches.

Pattern: Subjunctive after an appropriate governing particle, e.g. أَنْ. The governing particle is not part of the conjugated verb in this table.

Recognition notes

• The five-verbs forms (indices 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11) omit the indicative final ن; indices 6 and 12 retain the feminine-plural نَ. The َ / ْ endings differ for singular forms.
• Indices 8 and 11 share identical surfaces; preserve both index possibilities.
• Some surfaces overlap T2 or each other; context and the established R007/R008 rules are required to distinguish mood, rather than forcing a unique label.
• These examples are limited to strong roots. Weak-final and other root structures require independent pattern validation.

Form I — T4 Active Imperfect Jussive (14 person indices)

Example root: ك ت ب. These are illustrative grammatical forms, not asserted R006–R009 or dictionary matches.

Pattern: Jussive after an appropriate governing particle, e.g. لَمْ. The governing particle is not part of the conjugated verb in this table.

Recognition notes

• The five-verbs forms (indices 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10, 11) omit the indicative final ن; indices 6 and 12 retain the feminine-plural نَ. The َ / ْ endings differ for singular forms.
• Indices 8 and 11 share identical surfaces; preserve both index possibilities.
• Some surfaces overlap T2 or each other; context and the established R007/R008 rules are required to distinguish mood, rather than forcing a unique label.
• These examples are limited to strong roots. Weak-final and other root structures require independent pattern validation.

Form I — T5 Active Light Emphatic (14 index positions)

Example root: ك ت ب. Documentation-only illustrative forms; no end-to-end R006–R009 validation is asserted.

ACE T5 constraint: indices 2, 5, 8, 11 (dual) and 6, 12 (feminine plural) are excluded. The table preserves their index positions without generating prohibited examples.

Surface convention: light-emphatic suffixes are transcribed according to the established ACE suff5 family. Actual Muṣḥaf spellings and context-sensitive variants require separate validation.

Recognition notes

• ACE suff5 inventory: َنْ, َانْ, ُونْ, ِينَ. Inventory membership alone does not make an index applicable.
• Excluded index positions are shown only to retain the standard 1–14 teaching layout; do not treat them as generated ACE hypotheses.
• Context, orthography, and R006–R009 validation remain separate.

Form I — T6 Active Heavy Emphatic (14 index positions)

Example root: ك ت ب. Documentation-only illustrative forms; no end-to-end R006–R009 validation is asserted.

Scope: only straightforward singular examples are populated. Dual and plural heavy-emphatic endings need confirmation against the canonical ACE suff6 membership and R008 index behavior; blank rows are deliberate, not claims of inapplicability.

Recognition notes

• ACE suff6 is distinct from suff5. Do not derive heavy-emphatic dual and plural surfaces merely by replacing the light-emphatic final نْ with نَّ.
• Indices with shared pronoun forms must preserve valid ambiguities after canonical validation.
• No R006–R009, dictionary, or corpus validation is claimed.

Form I — T7 Passive Perfect (14 person indices)

Example root: ك ت ب. Illustrative strong-root passive conjugations only; R006–R009 and dictionary outcomes have not been verified.

Voice pattern: Form I passive perfect uses كُتِبَ as the singular model. The suffix inventory corresponds to the perfect person indices; stem vocalization marks passive voice.

Recognition notes

• R006 structural Form I recognition does not independently determine passive voice; R007 must support T7 and R008 must assign the compatible person index.
• Indices 8 and 11 share the same physical form. Preserve both grammatical index possibilities.
• Only the strong-root model is illustrated. Weak, hollow, doubled, and context-sensitive forms require separate validation.
• Documentation examples do not assert full-pipeline recognition or dictionary attestation.

Form I — T8 Passive Imperfect (Indicative) (14 person indices)

Example root: ك ت ب. Illustrative strong-root passive conjugations only; R006–R009 and dictionary outcomes have not been verified.

Voice pattern: Form I passive indicative imperfect uses يُكْتَبُ as the singular model. The passive imperfect prefixes carry ḍamma (يُ / تُ / أُ / نُ).

Recognition notes

• R007 passive-imperfect diagnosis must use passive prefix-vowel evidence; R008 reconciles person prefixes and suffix memberships.
• Surface ambiguity is retained: يُكْتَبُ may support both 1.8.1 and 4.8.1, subject to independent structural checks.
• Indices 8 and 11 share the same dual surface. Other shared forms can also retain multiple indices.
• Only the strong-root model is illustrated. Weak, hollow, doubled, and context-sensitive forms require separate validation.
• Documentation examples do not assert full-pipeline recognition or dictionary attestation.

Form I — T9 Passive Imperfect (Subjunctive) (14 person indices)

Example root: ك ت ب. Passive imperfect uses ḍamma on its prefix; these are illustrative strong-root forms only.

Mood: Subjunctive, e.g. following أَنْ. The particle is not included in the table's verb surface.

Recognition notes

• Governing particle such as أَنْ is separate from the verb; do not mistake it for part of the verb surface.
• Five-verbs indices 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10 and 11 lose indicative final ن; indices 6 and 12 retain feminine-plural نَ.
• Indices 8 and 11 share the same physical surface; retain both where structurally valid.
• T9 and T10 share many dual/plural surfaces; preserve overlapping hypotheses pending contextual and R007/R008 validation.
• Only strong-root ك ت ب is illustrated. No R006–R009, corpus or dictionary validation is claimed.

Form I — T10 Passive Imperfect (Jussive) (14 person indices)

Example root: ك ت ب. Passive imperfect uses ḍamma on its prefix; these are illustrative strong-root forms only.

Mood: Jussive, e.g. following لَمْ. The particle is not included in the table's verb surface.

Recognition notes

• Governing particle such as لَمْ is separate from the verb; do not mistake it for part of the verb surface.
• Five-verbs indices 2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10 and 11 lose indicative final ن; indices 6 and 12 retain feminine-plural نَ.
• Indices 8 and 11 share the same physical surface; retain both where structurally valid.
• T9 and T10 share many dual/plural surfaces; preserve overlapping hypotheses pending contextual and R007/R008 validation.
• Only strong-root ك ت ب is illustrated. No R006–R009, corpus or dictionary validation is claimed.

Form I — T11 Passive Light Emphatic (14 index positions)

Example root: ك ت ب. Passive imperfect stem with ḍamma on the imperfect prefix. Documentation-only examples.

The ACE light-emphatic exclusion rule is applied to indices 2, 5, 6, 8, 11, 12. The remaining surfaces are provisional teaching examples and require verification against passive suffix-family membership and Qur’ānic orthography.

Recognition notes

• Passive imperfect prefixes are يُ، تُ، أُ، نُ; do not confuse these with the active prefixes.
• ACE suff5 and suff6 are distinct. A suffix-family inventory is not, by itself, proof of a valid passive Form.T.Index match.
• Retain structurally legitimate shared-index ambiguities; do not force a unique interpretation from identical physical endings.
• No R006–R009, dictionary, or corpus validation is claimed.

Form I — T12 Passive Heavy Emphatic (14 index positions)

Example root: ك ت ب. Passive imperfect stem with ḍamma on the imperfect prefix. Documentation-only examples.

Only straightforward singular examples are populated. Dual, plural, and feminine-plural forms are deliberately left pending until canonical passive heavy-emphatic suffix membership is checked; blank rows do not mean exclusion.

Recognition notes

• Passive imperfect prefixes are يُ، تُ، أُ، نُ; do not confuse these with the active prefixes.
• ACE suff5 and suff6 are distinct. A suffix-family inventory is not, by itself, proof of a valid passive Form.T.Index match.
• Retain structurally legitimate shared-index ambiguities; do not force a unique interpretation from identical physical endings.
• No R006–R009, dictionary, or corpus validation is claimed.

Form I — T13 Imperative (indices 7–12)

Example root: ك ت ب. Illustrative strong-root forms; R006–R009 and dictionary validation are not asserted.

The imperative is formed for second-person indices 7–12. Qur’ānic imperative onset is written with hamzat al-waṣl (ٱ); preserve that character in the Arabic source. The root ك ت ب has imperfect middle vowel ḍamma, reflected in pronunciation, not by replacing ٱ with a different Arabic onset.

Recognition notes

• Do not treat initial اُ, اِ, ا, and ٱ as interchangeable canonical Qur’ānic spellings. ACE pronoun indices 8 and 11 share the same dual form and must both be retained.
• Indices 1–6 and 13–14 are shown as not applicable, not as missing generated conjugations.
• Weak-final, hollow, doubled and other root classes require independent validation.

Form I — T14 Prohibitive (indices 7–12)

Example root: ك ت ب. Illustrative strong-root forms; R006–R009 and dictionary validation are not asserted.

The prohibitive is the negative command particle لَا followed by the active imperfect jussive (T4) at second-person indices 7–12. The particle is displayed separately from the verb, preserving the source-token distinction.

Recognition notes

• لَا is a separate particle, not a verb prefix or a member of the verb suffix. Indices 8 and 11 share a physical form. Mood analysis should preserve valid overlapping hypotheses until context resolves them.
• Indices 1–6 and 13–14 are shown as not applicable, not as missing generated conjugations.
• Weak-final, hollow, doubled and other root classes require independent validation.

Form I — T15 Active Participle (اسم الفاعل) (24 declension display slots)

Root: ك ت ب · Base pattern: فَاعِل · Example: كَاتِبٌ.

Form I T15 uses a فَاعِل base for this strong root. The participle is a nominal form, not a finite-verb person conjugation.

Index caution: ACE nominal T15–T25 uses 24 declension indices (eight groups of three). The eight groups below are illustrative teaching groups, not a verified mapping of the ACE canonical 1–24 index order. Consequently the left column shows display slots, not asserted 1.15.Index assignments. Reconcile with the canonical nominal index table before enabling numeric mappings.

Recognition notes

• Case endings and number/gender inflections are nominal declension, not verbal subject-pronoun suffixes.
• Dual accusative and genitive surfaces coincide, as do sound masculine plural accusative and genitive forms. Retain grammatical alternatives where morphology alone does not distinguish them.
• Examples are pedagogical, not assertions of Qur’ānic attestation or R006–R009/dictionary validation.
• Weak, hamzated, and doubled roots require independent pattern verification.

Form I — T16 Passive Participle (اسم المفعول) (24 declension display slots)

Root: ك ت ب · Base pattern: مَفْعُول · Example: مَكْتُوبٌ.

Form I T16 uses a مَفْعُول base for this strong root. Do not infer T16 availability for every root or confuse it with a finite passive verb.

Index caution: ACE nominal T15–T25 uses 24 declension indices (eight groups of three). The eight groups below are illustrative teaching groups, not a verified mapping of the ACE canonical 1–24 index order. Consequently the left column shows display slots, not asserted 1.16.Index assignments. Reconcile with the canonical nominal index table before enabling numeric mappings.

Recognition notes

• Case endings and number/gender inflections are nominal declension, not verbal subject-pronoun suffixes.
• Dual accusative and genitive surfaces coincide, as do sound masculine plural accusative and genitive forms. Retain grammatical alternatives where morphology alone does not distinguish them.
• Examples are pedagogical, not assertions of Qur’ānic attestation or R006–R009/dictionary validation.
• Weak, hamzated, and doubled roots require independent pattern verification.

Form I — T17 Verbal Noun (Maṣdar / المصدر)

Core rule: Form I maṣdar patterns are lexical facts, not an automatically derivable single template. A matching shape alone is not sufficient to assert a root-specific T17 analysis.

The examples below are teaching illustrations. Their presence here does not establish Qur’ānic occurrence, ACE dictionary membership, or R006–R009 validation.

ACE recognition and index notes

• Root-first lexical check: recover candidate roots structurally, then verify whether a particular maṣdar is recorded for that root in the dictionary.
• Do not manufacture T17: a generic pattern match must not by itself generate an attested maṣdar claim.
• T20 overlap exception: when a candidate adjective has a matching physical/structural T20 pattern, remove only that duplicate T17 candidate and retain T20. Do not globally deduplicate other legitimate overlaps.
• Nominal declension: T17 belongs to the nominal categories (24 declension indices), but this page intentionally does not assign numeric 1.17.Index values until the canonical ACE index mapping is confirmed. Lexical identity and case/number/gender are separate checks.
• Preserve Qur’ānic source orthography and independent R006–R009, dictionary, and corpus validation.

Form I — T18 Noun of Place / Time (اسم المكان والزمان)

Scope: nominal derivatives. The following examples are descriptive teaching references, not verified ACE dictionary entries, Qur’ānic attestations, or R006–R009 results.

The common Form I place/time patterns include مَفْعَل and مَفْعِل, but the correct lexical noun, its vowel class, and whether it denotes place, time, or both require root-specific validation. A structural match alone does not establish T18.

Recognition notes

• Recover the root and structural template first, then validate the particular noun and its lexical sense against the ACE dictionary; never assert a derivative from the template alone.
• Retain legitimate morphological overlap with other nominal categories until independent evidence distinguishes them. Do not globally deduplicate T18 against T17, T20, or other T categories.
• Nominal categories use ACE's 24 declension indices. This table deliberately does not assign 1.18.Index until the canonical index-to-declension mapping has been checked.
• Preserve the Qur’ānic source spelling, including hamza and weak-letter variants. Strong-root examples do not authorize generalization to weak or hamzated roots.
• Full token analysis, dictionary validation, and corpus checks remain outside this standalone documentation viewer.

Form I — T19 Noun of Instrument (اسم الآلة)

Scope: nominal derivatives. The following examples are descriptive teaching references, not verified ACE dictionary entries, Qur’ānic attestations, or R006–R009 results.

Instrument nouns are lexical items. Common descriptive patterns include مِفْعَال and مِفْعَلَة; other attested patterns and doubled-root realizations require separate treatment. Do not assume every Form I root yields an instrument noun.

Recognition notes

• Recover the root and structural template first, then validate the particular noun and its lexical sense against the ACE dictionary; never assert a derivative from the template alone.
• Retain legitimate morphological overlap with other nominal categories until independent evidence distinguishes them. Do not globally deduplicate T19 against T17, T20, or other T categories.
• Nominal categories use ACE's 24 declension indices. This table deliberately does not assign 1.19.Index until the canonical index-to-declension mapping has been checked.
• Preserve the Qur’ānic source spelling, including hamza and weak-letter variants. Strong-root examples do not authorize generalization to weak or hamzated roots.
• Full token analysis, dictionary validation, and corpus checks remain outside this standalone documentation viewer.

Form I — T20 Adjective (الصفة)

Documentation status: illustrative lexical examples, not claims of R006–R009 matching, ACE dictionary validation, or corpus attestation.

ACE Form I T20 has eight established structural patterns, numbered 1–8 in the user-confirmed order. Their exact canonical sequences are not present in this documentation package, so this section deliberately does not reconstruct or renumber them. The table gives lexical teaching examples only, not the eight canonical ACE patterns.

Recognition notes

• Recover the candidate root and structural form independently, then validate lexical category and meaning against the dictionary.
• ACE T17/T20 exception: if an adjective candidate has the same physical/structural pattern in T20 and T17, remove only the duplicate T17 candidate, keeping T20. Do not use this as a global deduplication rule.
• Nominal T15–T25 use 24 declension indices; do not assign 1.20.Index from these example rows without confirming the canonical ACE index mapping.
• Preserve Qur’ānic Arabic surface orthography and retain all independently valid hypotheses. Weak, hamzated and doubled roots need separate structural checks.
• This page documents examples only; it does not load or modify the ACE controller, R006–R009, suffix handling, or ND pipeline.

Form I — T21 Intensive / Exaggerated Noun (صيغة المبالغة)

Documentation status: illustrative lexical examples, not claims of R006–R009 matching, ACE dictionary validation, or corpus attestation.

Intensive patterns are lexical and semantic categories, not automatic derivations for every Form I root. Pattern shapes such as فَعَّال, فَعِيل, and فَعُول can overlap other adjective classes; lexical and contextual evidence is necessary.

Recognition notes

• Recover the candidate root and structural form independently, then validate lexical category and meaning against the dictionary.
• Retain structurally legitimate T21/T20 and other category overlaps unless an independently established ACE rule excludes one. Do not silently merge intensive and ordinary adjective categories.
• Nominal T15–T25 use 24 declension indices; do not assign 1.21.Index from these example rows without confirming the canonical ACE index mapping.
• Preserve Qur’ānic Arabic surface orthography and retain all independently valid hypotheses. Weak, hamzated and doubled roots need separate structural checks.
• This page documents examples only; it does not load or modify the ACE controller, R006–R009, suffix handling, or ND pipeline.

Form I — T22 Colors / Defects (الألوان والعيوب)

Documentation status: illustrative lexical teaching examples. ACE dictionary, corpus, and R006–R009 validation are not asserted.

The familiar masculine أَفْعَل and feminine فَعْلَاء pairing occurs in many color and physical-defect adjectives. The pairing is descriptive, not a guarantee that every root supplies both forms.

Recognition notes

• Colors and defects are lexical-semantic classifications. Do not classify every أَفْعَل form as T22; the same visible shape can belong to another category.
• Masculine and feminine examples are given as citation forms, not as a 24-index ACE nominal declension mapping.
• Color/defect adjectives of this type commonly resist tanwīn in their indefinite forms; case endings and definite constructions require their own declension treatment.
• Nominal categories T15–T25 use 24 declension indices. This section intentionally does not assign 1.22.Index until the canonical ACE index order is verified.
• Preserve source Qur’ānic hamza, weak letters, and alif maqṣūra rather than normalizing away morphological distinctions.
• Do not change the operational controller, R006–R009, suffix families, or ND pipeline based on these teaching examples.

Form I — T23 Comparative / Superlative (اسم التفضيل)

Documentation status: illustrative lexical teaching examples. ACE dictionary, corpus, and R006–R009 validation are not asserted.

The common masculine comparative/superlative pattern is أَفْعَل. The same lexical form can express comparison (“greater”) or the superlative (“greatest”) according to syntax and context. Feminine forms may follow فُعْلَى, but not every use requires a feminine surface.

Recognition notes

• The semantic distinction between comparative and superlative depends on construction and context; do not force a unique reading from the word alone.
• T23 أَفْعَل can physically resemble T22 colors/defects; retain valid competing hypotheses until lexical and contextual rules distinguish them.
• The feminine counterpart examples are illustrative lexical forms, not evidence that every comparative automatically produces a corresponding feminine adjective in every construction.
• Nominal categories T15–T25 use 24 declension indices. This section intentionally does not assign 1.23.Index until the canonical ACE index order is verified.
• Preserve source Qur’ānic hamza, weak letters, and alif maqṣūra rather than normalizing away morphological distinctions.
• Do not change the operational controller, R006–R009, suffix families, or ND pipeline based on these teaching examples.

Form I structural patterns — preliminary examples

Illustrative surfaces; R008 person-index mappings are confirmed for T1/T2, but complete pipeline validation is pending. Other entries remain preliminary. Nominal entries intentionally omit an index.

Scope and isolation

This viewer loads documentation/ace_forms_i_x.php, documentation/ace_form_i_patterns.php, and, for Form I, documentation/ace_form_i_t1_section.php and documentation/ace_form_i_t2_section.php, plus documentation/ace_form_i_t3_section.php, documentation/ace_form_i_t4_section.php, documentation/ace_form_i_t5_section.php, and documentation/ace_form_i_t6_section.php through documentation/ace_form_i_t23_section.php, with their documentation-only dependencies.
