• Transform chains: one sentence changes step by step (person, gender, tense, negation).
• Role-play: everyday conversations with a model reply for each turn, and an optional listen-first mode.
• Short grammar tips under most drill answers and role-play replies, shown once you reveal them.
• Plain-English grammar explanations for lam, kana and its sisters, inna and its sisters, mundhu, yajibu, alladhi, the idafa, comparatives, conditionals and numbers
• Normal and slow audio (uses the device's Arabic text-to-speech voice)
• Vowel marks can be switched off
• Practise as a man or a woman: items, chain steps and role-play turns can carry an f override with the feminine wording
• Previous button during drills and chains to look back at earlier sentences
• Review only the sentences already marked solid
• Progress: each sentence has a level from 0 to 5; Got it on the first try in a session adds one, Missed it resets to 0; level 2 counts as solid
