I get really confused with present and past in darija, i can’t always tell the difference.
If it isn’t too much, can someone just conjugate these for me:
I came
You came (m. & f.)
He came
She came
We came
They came
You (pl) came
& also the present tense
I’m coming
You’re coming
He’s coming
She’s coming
We’re coming
They’re coming
You(pl.) are coming
Merciiiiiiii bzaf d’avance
what about having a look here
You’ll find explanation on the word “kteb” (= to write). Hope that would help, then, as a kind of exercise, do it yourself with the verb to come “ja”…well, I think this verb would be difficult for some vowel-related reasons. As an exercise, try it on the verb (to play = l3b)
[I wanted to give you the answer on (ja) but I’ll wait a while till I see if this site helped or if some native friends out here would explain it better]
yalla, good luck
the past :
ana jit
nta jiti
howa ja / hya jat
7na jina
ntoma jitou
homa jaw
the present
ana jay
nta jay
howa jay / hya jaya
7na jayin
ntoma jayin
homa jayin
lalla do it now by urself with the verb ‘‘mcha’’ dont cheat

um why is there a “Ka” in front of the words? Is that what occurs when you speak in present tense and does that hold true for all verbs or specific ones only?
Also is “inta” used for both “you” M&F ???

Aisha , you forget my homework…where’s your exercise on “l3b” (= to play). Yeah, I dont teach darija, and yeah u’r not my student, but it annoys me to find my students not doing my homework. As a punishment, an unexpected quiz…next sunday

Madrid, no thanks, your idea of “coffee club” scares me :unsure:
Gretchen, asifa ya albi euuh i mean ya ustada, i totally forgot about your post… shall i do it in fos7a or darija i have no idea how this verb behaves
ok here’s my crap shot:
PAST
ana l3ebt
nta l3bti
nti l3bti
howa l3ba (LOL) / hiya l3bat
7na l3bina
ntoma l3bitou
homa l3baw
-SO WRONG, i KNOW-
Present --> NO IDEA, because i have never heard this verb in a Moroccan context
but here’s what i would just say if i needed to use this verb desperately
ana al3abo
nta tl3abo
nti tl3abina
howa yl3abo
hiya tl3abo
7na (na7no) nl3abo
ntoma (ntoum) tl3boon
homa (houm) yl3aboon
hhhhh ok it didn’t work i guess :unsure:
Correct me a Gretchen, and please no test, I have enough stress due to ljami3a =)
