Lesson 6 of 30
Fathah
Read any letter carrying a fathah.
What this lesson introduces
- The fathah mark and its "a" sound
Practice between lessons
Progress at this stage tracks almost exactly with whether this happens.
- Read all 29 letters with fathah
- Read two-letter combinations
Learn this with a tutor
The Qaida is the one stage where self-teaching reliably goes wrong, because an error in a letter sound is invisible to the person making it. A tutor hears it on the first attempt.
