Derived Forms in the Present: IV-X

Derived verbs (Forms IV to X) form the present in a regular way, but the beginning of the verb changes:

• Form IV loses its hamza: أرسل → يرسل (he sends), أعلن → تعلن (she announces), أحب → يحب (he loves).
• Forms VII, VIII and X lose the first ا: انتقل → ينتقل (he moves), انتظر → ننتظر (we wait), استقبل → تستقبل (she receives).
• Forms V and VI keep their ت after the prefix: تعلم → يتعلم (he learns), تعاون → نتعاون (we cooperate).

Then add the usual prefixes and endings: يـ (he), تـ (she, you), نـ (we), أ (I), يـ…ون (they), تـ…ون (you, pl.), تـ…ين (you, f.). Example: هم يستمعون إلى الأخبار (They listen to the news).
