ar-act-participle


This template is for displaying the headword line of Arabic active participles. It displays the headword and the form class of the verb; the latter links to the appropriate section in Appendix:Arabic verbs. It also places the page in Category:Arabic active participles.

Note that most entries for active participles are auto-generated. (However, there may also be an entry for a noun and/or adjective lemma derived from the active participle, which is not auto-generated.)

Parameters

[edit]
|1= and |head2=, |head3= ...
Required. Specifies the vocalized participle (i.e. with vowel diacritics).
Additional parameters are available if there are multiple possible vocalizations (rare if not non-existent).
|2=
Required. Form class of the participle, a Roman numeral from I to XV or from Iq to IVq.
|tr= and |tr2=, |tr3= ...
Unnecessary and should not be provided, but present for completeness. (Specifically, it is the transliteration of the corresponding participle. Auto-generated from the vocalized headword, and there should be no exceptional cases requiring manual transliteration, unlike for nouns.)

Examples

[edit]

A typical example is {{ar-act-participle|قَاتِل|I}}, which produces

قَاتِل (qātil) (form I)

A page with such a headword line would normally have a definition line below it using {{active participle of}}, e.g. {{active participle of|ar|قَتَلَ}}, which produces

active participle of قَتَلَ (qatala)
