Questions & Answers about أي محول تجد، فخذه.
What case is أي in this sentence, and why?
As a conditional particle, أي changes its case depending on its role in the sentence. Here, it is the direct object of the verb تجد (you find). Therefore, it is in the accusative case (mansub) and is pronounced أيَّ (ayya).
What is the grammatical relationship between أي and محول?
The generalizing particle أي always forms an idafa (genitive construction) with the noun it modifies. Because of this, محول acts as the second part of the idafa and must be in the genitive case (majrur), pronounced محولٍ (muHawwilin).
Why is the verb تجد (you find) in the jussive mood (majzum)?
When أي is used as a conditional particle meaning 'whichever', it acts like إن (if) and forces the verb in the conditional clause into the jussive mood. Since تجد is a regular verb, its jussive form simply takes a sukun on the final letter.
Why does the second part of the sentence (فخذه) start with the prefix فـ?
In Arabic conditional sentences, if the result clause (the 'then' part) is an imperative command like خذ (take), it is mandatory to attach the prefix فـ (fa-) to connect it back to the condition.
