نظرة على اللغة
في اللغة الأم
Present-tense states usually have no overt “be”; past and future use forms such as كان or سيكون.
البيتُ كبير.
The house big.
في اللغة قيد التعلم
English usually requires the verb 'be' for states, locations, existence, and many descriptions.
There is a problem.
is = existence/state marker
Learners whose language drops the copula may omit 'be' in sentences like 'He is tired'.
Same block, different coding
Both languages use this block strongly, but they signal it differently. Focus on form changes, not only meaning.
