Arab Inflectional and Derivational Affixes

Introduction\nMany students consider difficulty in wrong of inflexional increasees and linageal one(a). forward discussing the faultings or shifts the students commit, it is better to bum about by defining these twain concepts. Firstly, the derivation, we can say that derivation: is the process of forming new tidings by combining the theme which is the basic meaningful unit of measurement in English with the affixes, so for sample the reciprocation (help), it seems travel by that this word is in the basic or smaller situation, wherefore we cannot divide it into smaller unit, the word (nation) can be a new word by adding for example the affixes (al), we get out exact the new word (national).
