Solar and lunar letters

This theme is a point in Arabic grammar, solar and lunar letters are letters that change the sound of the article (أل) - Al (Remembering that this article always comes with the words) that corresponds to “Os, As, O, A” in Portuguese, depending on which letter it accompanies - Solar or Lunar - the L is spoken or hidden.

The Arabic alphabet comprises 28 letters, 14 which are solar and lunar 14, see:

Solar Letters - Huruf Al Shamsia:

ن ل ط ظ ص ض س ش ز ر د ذ ت ث

After winning article Al Arabic letters gain a Shadda  images thus indicating that doubled, and L loses its reading using only A.

Example:

ألنَّار - O Fogo - We would read "An-Nar" instead of "Al-Nar"

ألدَّار - The House - We would read “Ad-Dar” instead of “Al-Dar”
ألزَّيتون - The Olive - We would read “Az-Zaitun” instead of “Al-Zaitun”

Solar letters with AL (أل) always receive Shadda images warning us so oo L أل loses his reading.

Lunar Letters - Huruf Al Qamaria

ي و ه ك م ق ف غ ع خ ح ج ب ا

Unlike the letters Solares, Lunares do not carry Shadda and the reading of the article أل (al) remains intact.

Example:
ألفِيل - The Elephant - Al Fil
ألمِفتَاح - The key - Al Miftah
ألهِرّ - The Cat - Al Hirr

To fix:

Solar Letters: Duplicates the letter does not use the L of AL (أل) leaving only A (أ)

Lunar Letters: Do not duplicate letters and the reading of Al (أل) remains intact.

Uniting the Arabic letters:

As you have already noticed, the Arabic has that strange writing lying all together, making the observer think "it is impossible to learn that!" well this article shows you reader that it is not impossible to learn, in this second table, it shows the position that the letters occupy (Start, middle and end - Arabic uses the order from right to left) depending on what place it occupies in a word, if you take an Arabic text and compare it with this table, you will be able to read (but to understand, then you will need to study vocabulary)

To close properly this article, I leave a video with the sound of Arabic letters.
