Rule for forming the maṣdar ʿidah from وَعْدٌ: drop the initial wāw, give the ʿayn al-kalimah a kasrah, and append tāʾ marbūṭah.
When a wāw or yāʾ is preceded by a sākin, swap their ḥarakāt; transformations, exceptions, and the alif-drop rule for verbs like yaqūlu and yabīʿu.
When wāw and yāʾ combine in one word under set conditions, the wāw becomes yāʾ and the two merge with tashdīd.
On the scale of fuʿlā with a wāw lām, the wāw turns to yāʾ; on faʿlā with a yāʾ lām, the yāʾ turns to wāw.
