Introduction

Binyan Pa'al – Group 3

General Structure

Infinitive Form

‫ות‬..The infinitive form for this group is characterized by the ending:

The sound structure of this group is:

‫ִל ְ ֹות‬

LI..’..OT

Example:

to drink – ‫ִל ְשתֹות‬

Present Tense

The vowels in this structure in the present tense are: ...O...E…

The difference between group 3 and group 1 is that group 3 verbs

always end with a letter ‫ ה‬in the present tense.
In group 3 for feminine singular we maintain the letter ‫ ה‬at the end of

the verb, but the vowel sound is changed to "AH" instead of "E".
For plural we add the ending ‫ ים‬for masculine and ‫ ות‬for feminine,
but we lose the previous last letter ‫ ה‬because we cannot have
two consecutive vowels ‫הה‬

‫רבות‬ ‫רבים‬ ‫נקבה‬ ‫זכר‬

‫שֹותֹות‬ ‫שֹותים‬ ‫שֹותה‬ ‫שֹו ֶתה‬
