The equivalent of the English verb "To have" is expressed by using the word "Andi". The pattern for them is demonstrated in the following examples by changing the appropriate possessive pronoun (notice the letters written in Red):
1) Positive Statement
| عند Have (Root Verb) | |||
| عندي | Andi | I have | |
| عندنا | Andina | We have | |
| عندك | Andak | You have | |
| You - Fem (إنتي) | عندك | Andik | You have |
| You - Plural (انتو) | عندكو | Andaku | You have |
| عنده | Andu | He has | |
| عندها | Andaha | She has | |
| They (هم) | عندهم | Andahum | They have |
2) Negative statement by putting "Ma" at the beginning + verb "To have" with appropriate pronoun + "Sh" at the end. Let see the pattern bellow :
| عند Have (Root Verb) | |||
| ماعنديش | Ma Andish | I haven't | |
| ماعندناش | Ma Andinash | We haven't | |
| ماعندكش | Ma Andaksh | You haven't | |
| You - Fem (إنتي) | ماعندكش | Ma Andiksh | You haven't |
| You - Plural (انتو) | ماعندكوش | Ma Andakush | You haven't |
| ماعندوش | Ma Andush | He han't | |
| ماعندهاش | Ma Andahash | She hasn't | |
| They (هم) | ماعندهمش | Ma Andahumsh | They haven't |
Examples:
1) Andak ashab?
Do you have friends? - عندك اصحاب
2) Ana andi meshkela
I have problems - انا عندي مشكله
3) Lau andaku sur hatuha hina
If you guys have photos, bring them here - لو عندكو صور حطوها هنا

What is the difference between عندنا and لدينا
What is the difference between عندنا and لدينا
Sana - no difference - but لدي is fusha only.

commonly, I should say
e.g.
Ana mish atakalamu L'AEarabiyah
am I right?

How do you say " I buy ?"
انا اشتري / ana ishteri
In negative form I always have to add a ش at the final?
Is it necessary to add a sh at the end of the verb?
