As can be seen, Fylfathic borrows "al-" from Arabic but writes it differently, with an obligatory kashida (eg. "اَلـ"), the origonal purpose was not recorded, but it is likely to make the division clearer. You will also notice a construct form, this descends from the "short genitive" (the form used in compounding), and this shift had been happening since at least the early 12th century and can be seen in the clear shift in how compounds are formed, for example, we will take "mountain", which is literally "that which carves the sky" in Fylfathic. Before the shift, such a compound would be formed as "sky's carver", with "sky" in the short genitive, thus the ancient "{{lang|fulf|ammaskafanṣ}}", but after the shift we see the form {{l| | As can be seen, Fylfathic borrows "al-" from Arabic but writes it differently, with an obligatory kashida (eg.
