Lesson 5. Arabic Diacritics ( تشكيل )

Assalam-o-Alykum,

Before we move further, it is important to briefly go through the nouns used for tashkeel as we will be using these nouns often so we should know what we are talking about.

I am pasting an image that I found from the source http://www.mediterraneosur.es/fondo/alfarabe.html





In urdu, we learnt the following words for tashkeel:

1) Fatha is 'Zabar'
2) Kasra is 'Zair'
3) Damma is 'Paish'
4) Sukun is 'Jazm'

Again, all those who learnt Quran know these tashkeel but this was just to be on the similar lines in calling them with a particular name.
