نحن نلتقي غدا.

A careful MSA pronunciation is:

naḥnu naltaqī ghadan

A few notes:

• نحن = naḥnu
  
  • ḥ is a strong h sound from the throat.
• نلتقي = naltaqī
  
  • the stress is usually near the end: nal-ta-QĪ
• غدا / غدًا = ghadan when fully pronounced
  
  • gh is like a French or German throat r sound.

In normal pause at the end of a sentence, the final -n of ghadan is often not pronounced, so you may hear something closer to:

naḥnu naltaqī ghadā or ghada

depending on how carefully someone is speaking.

The sentence breaks down like this:

• نحن = we
• نلتقي = we meet / we are meeting
• غدا / غدًا = tomorrow

So the structure is basically:

we + meet + tomorrow

Even though the meaning is already known, it is helpful to see that نلتقي already contains the subject we inside the verb.

In Arabic, verbs often include the subject inside the verb itself.

نلتقي is the imperfect/present form, and the prefix نـ at the beginning often marks we in this kind of verb.

So:

• ألتقي = I meet
• نلتقي = we meet

That means the separate word نحن is not strictly necessary for grammar, because نلتقي already tells you the subject is we.

Because Arabic can use an independent pronoun for emphasis, clarity, or style.

So:

• نلتقي غدًا = We are meeting tomorrow / We meet tomorrow
• نحن نلتقي غدًا = We are meeting tomorrow

The version with نحن can sound a bit more explicit, and sometimes slightly emphatic, like we are meeting tomorrow.

In many real contexts, especially if the subject is already clear, Arabic would often just say:

نلتقي غدًا

Not always. Arabic often uses the present/imperfect tense with a time word like غدًا (tomorrow) to show future meaning.

So this sentence naturally means a future event because of غدًا:

• نلتقي غدًا = We meet tomorrow / We are meeting tomorrow

You could also make the future more explicit:

• سنلتقي غدًا = We will meet tomorrow
• سوف نلتقي غدًا = We will meet tomorrow

All are possible, but without سـ or سوف, the word tomorrow already makes the future clear.

It is in the imperfect tense/form in Arabic.

The Arabic imperfect can express several meanings depending on context, including:

• present: we meet
• ongoing present: we are meeting
• near future: we will meet

In this sentence, غدًا makes the meaning future.

So grammatically it is an imperfect verb, but in context it refers to the future.

The dictionary form is usually given as the past tense verb:

اِلْتَقَى = he met

Its imperfect form is:

يَلْتَقِي = he meets / he is meeting

From that you get:

• ألتقي = I meet
• نلتقي = we meet
• يلتقي = he meets
• تلتقي = she meets / you meet

This verb comes from the root ل ق ي, connected with meeting or encountering.

Because this is not the basic Form I pattern. It comes from Form VIII:

• past: اِلْتَقَى
• imperfect: يَلْتَقِي

Form VIII often has an added ت after the first root consonant in its underlying pattern. In this verb, that pattern gives the sense of meeting.

So نلتقي is not built directly as a plain root-only form; it belongs to a derived verb pattern.

For a learner, the most useful thing is to memorize it as:

• اِلْتَقَى = met
• يَلْتَقِي = meets
• نَلْتَقِي = we meet

Both are related, but غدًا is the fully vowelled spelling.

• غدًا shows the accusative ending with tanwīn fatḥ: -an
• غدا is the same word written without the diacritic marks

In normal Arabic text, short vowels and tanwīn are usually omitted, so you will often see:

غدا

In fully vocalized text, you may see:

غدًا

Both represent tomorrow here.

Because it is functioning as an adverbial accusative of time, often called ẓarf zamān in Arabic grammar.

Words like today, tomorrow, morning, at night, and similar time expressions are often in the accusative when they tell you when something happens.

So in full grammatical pronunciation:

نحن نلتقي غدًا

the غدًا is in the accusative.

In everyday reading and speaking, many learners first just memorize غدًا = tomorrow and add the case explanation later.

Both are correct, but نلتقي غدًا is often the more neutral and economical version, because the verb already tells you the subject is we.

Compare:

• نلتقي غدًا = neutral, very natural
• نحن نلتقي غدًا = also correct, but more explicit or slightly emphatic

Arabic often allows this flexibility:

• نحن نلتقي غدًا
• نلتقي غدًا

In many everyday contexts, especially if there is no need to emphasize we, speakers would often omit نحن.

Yes. Arabic does not divide these meanings the same way English does.

The imperfect can cover both:

• we meet
• we are meeting

Context tells you which English translation is best.

With غدًا, English often prefers:

• We are meeting tomorrow
• We will meet tomorrow

But Arabic simply uses نلتقي and lets the time word do the work.

Yes. In normal written Arabic, you will usually see:

نحن نلتقي غدا

without short vowels or case endings written.

A fully vocalized textbook version would be something like:

نَحْنُ نَلْتَقِي غَدًا

Both represent the same sentence. The second just shows the pronunciation more clearly.
