كتب

Most Arabic words are built from a three-letter root that carries a core meaning. The root ك-ت-ب (k-t-b), for example, relates to "writing" — and from it come kitāb (book), kātib (writer), maktaba (library), and dozens more. Learn one root, unlock a whole family of words.

Quadriliteral Roots
ترجم

Some Arabic words come from a rarer four-letter root — like ت-ر-ج-م (t-r-j-m), the root behind tarjama (to translate) and tarjumān (translator). Quadriliteral Roots extends the same letter-by-letter discovery to this deeper layer of vocabulary.
