Doubled Verbs
Doubled verbs are verbs
that have identical second and third root-letters.
When conjugating doubled verbs in the imperative, we will do what we
did to the regular verbs. The difference here is that triliteral doubled
perfective verbs do not take ahamza(t)in front of them when turned into the imperative; except for the plural
feminine conjugation.
Example:
( عَدَّ"add(a)= counted ).
►We will start from the imperfective verb
in the
jussive mood.
►We will remove the first letter from the verb;
and that's it, except for the plural feminine which take ahamza(t).

Mithaal
Verbs
Mithaalverbs are verbs
whose first original letter is a weak letter.
Similarly to what we did
above, when we form imperatives from triliteral hollow perfective verbs we
will do what we did for the regular verbs except that we will not add
a hamza(t)
in front of the verb. However,
this applies only to
mithaalverbs
which lost their first week letters
when they were turned into the imperfective. That is, only triliterali verbs
will not take the hamza(t).

Hollow Verbs
Hollow verbs are verbs
that have a weak letter as the second original letter.
When forming an imperative
from a triliteral hollow perfective verb, we will do what we did for the
regular verbs except that we will not add
a hamza(t)
in front of the verb.
Defective verbs are verbs
whose last original letter is a weak letter.
Defective verbs will be
dealt with just like regular verbs.
Enfolding
Verbs
Enfoldingverbs enfold the definitions of both
mithaal
and defective verbs. They have two weak letters, one at the
beginning and the other at the end of the root. Those verbs get the
dealing of both
mithaal
and defective verbs.
When we
form imperatives from triliteral enfoldingperfective verbs we will
do what we did for the regular verbs except that we will not add
a hamza(t)
in front of the verb.
This applies only to i verbs which lost
their first week letters when they were turned into the imperfective.
Example: (
وَفَىْ
wafaa
= was loyal ). The root is :و ف يW F Y
