This study aimed to examine the effect of implementing NotebookLM in nahwu instruction on improving Arabic syntactic understanding among third-semester students of Arabic Education at Universitas Sunan Drajat Lamongan. The research employed a quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental one-group pretest–posttest design. The sample consisted of 32 students selected through total sampling. Data were collected using syntactic comprehension tests measuring students’ ability to identify sentence structures, determine i‘rab functions, and analyze syntactic relationships. Data were analyzed through normality testing and paired sample t-test. The findings revealed that the mean pretest score of 61.34 increased to 81.56 in the posttest, with a gain of 20.22 points. The significance value (0.000 < 0.05) indicated a statistically significant difference. The N-Gain score of 0.63 was categorized as moderate to high. The results confirm that NotebookLM effectively enhances students’ Arabic syntactic understanding and supports AI-assisted nahwu learning.
