Peal: the basic Aramaic action pattern
The Aramaic pattern traditionally called Peal is comparable in role to the basic stem of the language, but it should not be described merely as “Aramaic Qal.” אֲמַר is immediately recognizable to a Hebrew reader, yet its complete paradigm and syntax are Aramaic. The course uses familiar roots first so the learner can focus on the new forms.
