Telling time
؟ةعاسلا مك
Telling time in Arabic involves the use of
ordinal numbers,
which are used
as adjectives, the only exception when the time is
One O’clock
we say
ةدحاولا
this is the only exception that we do not use the Ordinal number...
and the numbers are always
definite (Spoken language)
and
feminine.
