Dear Nitya

To answer your questions regarding the early-learned verbs in Arabic, there
are studies that investigated the acquisition of verb inflections which
could be useful.

Aljenaie, K. (2001). The emergence of tense and agreement in Kuwaiti
children speaking Arabic.  PhD thesis, University of Reading, UK.

Aljenaie, K. (2010).  Verbal inflection in the acquisition of Kuwaiti
Arabic. *Journal of Child Language,* 37 (4), 841–863.

Basaffar, F. (2008). A Psycholinguistic Study of the Acquisition of Verb
Inflections in Hijazi Arabic as a First Language. PhD thesis King Abdulaziz
University, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

As for the Arabic CDI, to  my knowledge Dr. Sabah Safi is working on this
version.

Best wishes,
Khawla
