الموافقة جاهزة.

In Arabic, the verb to be is usually not stated in the present tense.

So الموافقة جاهزة literally looks like the approval ready, but it means:

The approval is ready.

This is a very common Arabic sentence pattern, called a nominal sentence.
The first part is the topic (الموافقة) and the second part is the comment about it (جاهزة).

If you wanted a past or future meaning, Arabic would use an actual verb, for example:

• كانت الموافقة جاهزة = The approval was ready
• ستكون الموافقة جاهزة = The approval will be ready

Because الموافقة is a feminine noun, the adjective describing it must also be feminine.

• الموافقة = a feminine noun
• جاهزة = feminine form of ready

This is called adjective agreement. In Arabic, adjectives agree with the noun in:

• gender
• number
• definiteness

Compare:

• الطلب جاهز = The request is ready (masculine)
• الموافقة جاهزة = The approval is ready (feminine)

The feminine ending here is ة.

الموافقة commonly means:

• approval
• agreement
• consent

The exact English translation depends on context.

For example:

• in bureaucracy: approval
• in legal or personal contexts: consent
• in discussion or opinion: agreement

So الموافقة جاهزة often means something like:

• The approval is ready
• The approval has been prepared
• The consent document is ready

الـ is the Arabic definite article, meaning the.

So:

• الموافقة = the approval
• جاهزة = ready

In this kind of sentence, the first noun is often definite, while the predicate adjective is usually indefinite.

So the structure is:

• الموافقة = the subject/topic
• جاهزة = the predicate/comment

With full case endings, it would be:

• الموافقةُ جاهزةٌ

Even though short vowels are often not written, grammatically جاهزة is indefinite here.

It is a full sentence, not just a noun phrase.

Why? Because the adjective is functioning as the predicate, not as a modifier inside a single noun phrase.

So:

• الموافقة جاهزة = The approval is ready → a complete sentence

But compare that with:

• الموافقة الجاهزة = the ready approval

That second example is a noun phrase, because both words are definite and the adjective directly modifies the noun.

So the absence of الـ on جاهزة helps show that this is a sentence, not just a noun with an adjective attached.

A common pronunciation is:

al-muwāfaqa jāhiza

If you pronounce full case endings in careful formal Arabic, it is:

al-muwāfaqatu jāhizatun

A few pronunciation notes:

• موَا in موافقة contains a long ā
• جاهزة also has a long ā
• the final ة is usually pronounced like -a in pause

So at the end of an utterance, learners usually hear:

• muwāfaqa
• jāhiza

not muwāfaqatun or jāhizatun, unless the speaker is using full formal endings.

This is a nominal sentence in Arabic.

Its two main parts are:

• الموافقة = mubtadaʼ (the subject/topic)
• جاهزة = khabar (the predicate)

So the structure is:

[topic] + [comment about the topic]

That is one of the most basic and important sentence patterns in Arabic.

With full grammatical vowels:

• الموافقةُ = nominative
• جاهزةٌ = nominative

Both parts are nominative because they are the two parts of a simple nominal sentence.

الموافقة comes from the root و-ف-ق.

This root is connected with meanings like:

• agreeing
• matching
• being in accord
• approving

A related verb is:

• وافَقَ = to agree with / to approve

From that, the verbal noun موافقة means:

• agreement
• approval
• consent

This is useful because many Arabic words are built from roots, and recognizing the root helps you connect related vocabulary.

Yes, but the usual neutral order is:

الموافقة جاهزة

This is the most natural way to say The approval is ready.

You may also see changed word order in special contexts for emphasis or style, but for learners, the standard pattern is best:

subject/topic first, predicate second

So if you are producing simple MSA, stick with:

• الموافقة جاهزة

The letter ة is called tāʼ marbūṭa. It often marks feminine nouns and adjectives.

Here:

• الموافقة is a feminine noun
• جاهزة is a feminine adjective

That is why both end in ة.

In pause, this ending is usually pronounced like -a:

• muwāfaqa
• jāhiza

But when fully inflected in connected formal speech, it can sound like -t before the case ending:

• muwāfaqatu
• jāhizatun

This is a very common feature in Arabic, so it is worth getting used to early.
