Arabic vocabulary
قَسْم is how you say “categories” in Arabic. Hear it pronounced and see it used in a real example sentence from classical texts below.
وكل من هَذِه الْأَقْسَام يُسمى حرفا لَكِن خَاصَّة الثَّالِث أَنه حرف جَاءَ لِمَعْنى لَيْسَ باسم
And each of these categories is called a particle, but the distinguishing feature of the third is that it is a particle that conveys a meaning and is not a noun.
الْأَقْسَامِ — categories. Genitive after the demonstrative — 'the divisions, classes'. Broken plural of 'qism'.
