عَرَب (ʕarabf or m pl (collective, singulative عَرَبِيّ m (ʕarabiyy), plural عُرُوب (ʕurūb) or أَعْرُب (ʔaʕrub) or عُرْبَان (ʕurbān) or عُرُب (ʕurub), paucal عَرَب (ʕarab))

Usage notes
edit

According to Lane's Arabic Lexicon (entry عرب, book I, p. 2045), عَرَب (ʕarab) is of the feminine gender. However, since the word is a collective noun with human referents, it is possible for it to be treated as either a masculine plural or a feminine singular noun. For example, the Wikipedia entry has الْعَرَب الْبَاقِيَة الَّذِين (al-ʕarab al-bāqiya allaḏīn ..., the remaining Arabs who ...) with بَاقِيَة (bāqiya, remaining), a feminine singular, but الَّذِين (allaḏīn, who), a masculine plural. Semantically, such nouns often refer to races and ethnic groups. For similar collective nouns, see عَجَم (ʕajam, Non-Arabs), كُرْج (kurj, Georgians), فُرْس (furs, Persians), تُرْك (turk, Turks), كُرْد (kurd, Kurds), رُوم (rūm, Romans), and رُوس (rūs, Rus Vikings).
