1. خَبَرِيَّةٌ حالِيَّةٌ مَحْكِيَّةٌ

    مَفْعُولَةٌ ثُمَّ الْمُضَافُ إلَيْها

    A predicative clause, a circumstantial clause, a quoted clause;

    an object clause, then one to which a noun is annexed;

  2. وَجَوابُ جَزْمٍ ثُمَّ تابِعُ مُفْرَدٍ

    أَوْ ذِي مَحَلٍّ فاحْرِصْنَّ عَلَيْها

    and the response to a jussive condition, then one dependent on a single word

    or on a clause with a syntactic position—so attend closely to them.

  3. وبِعَكْسِها صِلَةٌ وعارِضَةٌ مُفَسِّ

    رَةٌ وذاتُ الإبْتِداءِ تَلِيها

    And in contrast to them: a relative clause, a parenthetical clause, an explana-

    tory clause; and an initial clause follows them;

  4. وجَوابُ أَقْسامٍ وشَرْطٍ مالَهُ

    جَزْمٌ وتابِعُ هَذِهِ يَحْكِيها

    and the response to oaths and to a condition that has no

    jussive force; and a clause dependent on these shares their status.
