If there's any mistake please correct me (especially in the hebrew parts, i am only native in arabic and know basic hebrew)
explanation for roots and templates (i forgot to completely explain them lol): Words in semitic languages, unlike indo-european languages are conjugated with a system of roots and templates.
Roots are three (or even four) letter words, that are not meant to be used by themselves since they are equivalent to the infinitive in IE languages. So K-T-B would be "to write" and nothing else. No tense, no gender, etc etc.
Templates fill these in, by applying the root to a template. They specify the tense, gender, x-person etc.
So K-T-B (to write) + _A_A_TU (I did this thing in the past) = KATABTU
tl;dr: roots are verbs and templates are context for them
