Questions & Answers about تخزن كل البيانات في خادم آمن.
How can we tell that تخزن is in the passive voice here, and what Form is it?
The verb is تُخَزَّنُ (tukhazzanu), which is the present passive of Form II. You can tell it is passive by the vowels: a passive present tense verb in Form II has a u-sound (damma) on the first letter and an a-sound (fatha) on the middle root letter. The active version would be تُخَزِّنُ (tukhazzinu) with an i-sound (kasra) at the end, meaning 'it stores.'
Why does the verb تخزن start with the feminine تـ when the subject is the word كل (all)?
Even though كل is technically the subject, it usually takes on the gender of the noun that comes immediately after it. Because البيانات (the data) is a non-human plural, it is treated as feminine singular in Arabic. Therefore, the verb takes the feminine prefix تـ.
Why does the Arabic use في (in) instead of على (on) for 'on a secure server'?
This is the standard preposition to use for tech in Arabic. While in English we talk about storing data 'on' a server, Arabic treats the server as a digital container, so data is stored 'in' (في) it.
Is the word خادم (server) related to other words we know?
Yes, خادم comes from the root خ-د-م (kh-d-m), which means 'to serve.' It is the active participle (the 'doer' pattern) of Form I, so it literally means 'server' or 'servant.' You likely already know its related noun for 'service', which is خدمة (khidma).
