In this lesson we will continue practising joining letters and reading. We will also practice reading words with:
a) Sukun - We should pronounce the letter sound with no vowel sound i.e. Sukun acts like a stop.
b) Shadda - We should increase emphasis on the letter which has the Shadda.
c) Long vowel-marks - As we learnt in previous lessons there are 3 long vowel-marks, these lengthen the sound of the single vowel-marks.
| Meaning |
Final Form (i.e. how the letters will look when joined) |
Changed Form (i.e. to see how each letter has changed - joined form) |
