He said, "Yes, but [I ask] only that my heart may be satisfied." [Allah] said, "Take four birds and commit them to yourself. Then [after slaughtering them] put on each hill a portion of them; then call them - they will come [flying] to you in haste. And know that Allah is Exalted in Might and Wise."

The 13 occurrences of the root ط م ن in the Quran have been tagged in the corpus as form XII. I wanted to start a discussion on the message board about this. There are three possibilities here:

1. The existing tagging is correct.

2. Some (or all) of the words with this root are form IV quad instead.

3. Some (or all) of the words with this root are irregular verbs.

I'm keen to hear some suggestions :-)

All of the words with this root are form IV .

The verb's quadriliteral root is ṭā mīm hamza nūn (ط م ء ن). Form IV is اطمأنّ يطمئنّ.

An even better labeling is that it is Mulhaq category or Quasi Quadriliteral IV.

Root is ط م ن

Pattern is يَفْعَئِلَّ

Lane also labels it as QQ.IV

I think for ease of reference it is better that we keep to the annotation guidelines for this website as provided here: http://corpus.quran.com/documentation/verbforms.jsp

I am not sure how it would be "better labeling" to call it Quasi Quadriliteral IV, but even if that is the case, we need to revise the annotation guidelines first.

Are the references -- Lane's Lexicon, Volume 5, Page 1885 and Wright's Arabic Grammar, Volume 1, Page 49, Page 300 available on the website? Web link?

check http://ejtaal.net/aa#q=Tmn in Lane's Lexicon and Lisaan ul Arab

Keep to any kind of notation you like, as long as the site is there and continues to grow, as I fear this corpus site may also go down like kaisdukes.com is down since few days and his wordpress site is also dead since September last year (i.e. not updated since then), and I am unable to contact him .

I hope some one has download the complete code of version 0.4 and is keeping backup of this as well as the complete code of under construction version 0.5 on
