- In modern Arabic, جملة is used in commerce to mean 'wholesale'. If you see this word on a shop sign, it refers to buying in bulk rather than a grammatical sentence.
- Arabic grammar distinguishes between the جملة اسمية (nominal sentence) and the جملة فعلية (verbal sentence). A 'full sentence' can be complete even if it starts with a noun and lacks a verb entirely.
