Levantine Arabic/Weather

Basic terms
(iṭ-ṭaqs) is followed by an adjective (hot, cold, sunny etc.).

(id-dinya) is used as a dummy subject like “It's ...” in English. It can be followed by a verb (raining, snowing etc.), or a noun corresponding to an adjective (heat = hot, sun = sunny etc.).

Temperature
In order to express someone's sensation of the temperature, special adjectives with the ending “-ān” are used.

The sky
When used with a verb, (id-dinya) can be omitted as long as the verb is not the only remaining word in the sentence.

States like “sunny” and “cloudy” can be expressed by verbs well, which have the meaning of “to be ...” or “to become ...”.
