المنتج جديد.

In Arabic, the verb to be is usually not written or spoken in the present tense.

So:

• المنتج جديد = The product is new

There is no separate word for is here. This is a very common Arabic sentence pattern, called a nominal sentence.

If you wanted a past or future meaning, then Arabic would use a verb:

• كان المنتج جديدًا = The product was new
• سيكون المنتج جديدًا = The product will be new

الـ is the Arabic definite article, meaning the.

So:

• منتج = a product / product
• المنتج = the product

In this sentence, المنتج is definite, so the meaning is the product, not just a product.

Because here جديد is not just an adjective inside a noun phrase like the new product. It is the predicate of the sentence: it tells us something about the product.

So:

• المنتج جديد = The product is new

But:

• المنتج الجديد = the new product

That is an important difference:

• المنتج جديد → a full sentence
• المنتج الجديد → a noun phrase

When an adjective is used attributively (directly describing a noun inside a phrase), it matches definiteness:

• المنتج الجديد = the new product

When it is used as the predicate of a sentence, it usually does not take الـ:

• المنتج جديد = The product is new

A careful MSA pronunciation is roughly:

• al-muntaj jadīd

A more detailed breakdown:

• المنتج = al-mun-taj
• جديد = ja-dīd

A few notes:

• The ال in المنتج is pronounced al- because م is a moon letter, so the l sound stays.
• The ج sound depends on regional pronunciation, but in standard learning materials it is often taught as j as in judge.
• جديد has stress near the end: ja-DĪD.

Because it agrees with المنتج, which is a masculine singular noun.

In Arabic, adjectives usually agree with the noun in:

• gender
• number
• definiteness (when used attributively)

Since منتج is masculine singular, the predicate adjective appears in the masculine singular form:

• المنتج جديد = The product is new

If the noun were feminine, you would usually use جديدة:

• السيارة جديدة = The car is new

Yes. In fully vocalized formal Arabic, it would be:

• المنتجُ جديدٌ

Here:

• المنتجُ has ḍamma because it is the subject/topic of the nominal sentence
• جديدٌ also has ḍamma/tanwīn because it is the predicate

In normal everyday writing, these endings are usually omitted, so you will commonly see:

• المنتج جديد

Both represent the same sentence; the second is just the usual unvocalized spelling.

It is a nominal sentence because it begins with a noun, not a verb.

Structure:

• المنتج = the subject/topic
• جديد = the predicate

So the pattern is:

• noun + predicate

This is one of the most basic and common sentence types in Arabic.

Usually, جديد المنتج does not mean the same thing as المنتج جديد.

• المنتج جديد = The product is new
• جديد المنتج would more likely be understood as something like the product’s new thing or an incomplete/unnatural phrase in most contexts

So for the meaning The product is new, the normal order is:

• المنتج جديد

Arabic can change word order for emphasis in some contexts, but for a beginner, it is best to treat المنتج جديد as the standard pattern.

This is a very important distinction:

• المنتج جديد = The product is new
• المنتج الجديد = the new product

Why?

• In المنتج جديد, جديد is the predicate of a sentence.
• In المنتج الجديد, جديد is an adjective directly modifying المنتج inside a noun phrase.

So one is a sentence, and the other is a noun phrase.

Yes. منتج can mean product, but the exact sense depends on context. It can refer to:

• a commercial product
• a manufactured item
• sometimes a result or output

In this sentence, without extra context, the most natural translation is simply:

• The product is new

Yes. That means:

• هذا المنتج جديد = This product is new

Adding هذا makes the reference more specific: instead of the product, you are saying this product.

So:

• المنتج جديد = The product is new
• هذا المنتج جديد = This product is new

Both are natural; the second just points to a specific product more explicitly.
