This works deals with Arabic factoid Question Answering systems (QA). Commonly, the task of QA is divided into three phases: question analysis, answer pattern generation, and answer extraction. Each phase plays a crucial role in overall performance. In this paper, we focus on the two first phases: Question Analysis and Answer Pattern Generation. We used the NooJ platform which represents a valuable linguistic development environment. The first evaluations show that the actual results are encouraging and could be deployed for more types of questions other than factoid ones.
