Based on the syntactical analysis from observation, the researchers found that the most frequent errors were inflectional parsing （22.07%）, followed by the least mistake, which was the omission of＂Fa＂ after the word ＂Ammaa＂ （1.5%）. Other mistakes were found in using the gender of Arabic words （20.7%）; singular, dual, or plural forms （19.4%）; particles （13.5%）; definite article ＂AI＂ （12.9%）; relative nouns （5.1%）; and the use of ＂an＂ of gerund after imperfect verb （2.5%）.
