Download or read book Arabic Language Handbook written by Mary Catherine Bateson and published by Georgetown University Press. This book was released on 1967 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The demand for information on learning Arabic has grown spectacularly as English-speaking people have come to realize how much there is yet to know about other parts of the world. It is fitting that this Arabic Language Handbook, complementing Georgetown University Press's exceptional Arabic language textbooks, is the first in a new series: Georgetown Classics in Arabic Language and Linguistics. Sparked by the new demand, this reprint of a genuinely "gold-standard" language volume provides a streamlined reference on the structure of the Arabic language and issues in Arabic linguistics, from dialectics to literature. Originally published in 1967, the essential information on the structure of the language remains accurate, and it continues to be the most concise reference summary for researchers, linguists, students, area specialists, and others interested in Arabic.

Download or read book Negev Arabic written by Roni Henkin and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book by Roni Henkin discusses Negev Arabic, a group of Bedouin and Bedouinized dialects spoken in the Negev desert in southern Israel. Due to the heterogeneity of the Negev Bedouin community in terms of origin as well as period and routes of arrival, Negev Arabic displays many unique and significant dialectal, sub-dialectal, social, and cultural traits. These distinguish it, on the one hand, from neighboring Bedouin dialects, all of which are peripheral to the Bedouin dialectal and cultural focus in Arabia; on the other hand, it is quite radically distinct from the rest of the Palestinian dialect area, to which it is also peripheral. Henkin presents the highly complex system of Negev Arabic, combining three major axes of variation: dialectal, sociolinguistic, and stylistic. She shows how the migration history and coexistence patterns have shaped the dialect in each of these dimensions. The main focus is on the oral narrative styles of elderly speakers, as displayed in the ten stories that accompany the book dealing with Nabatiy poetry, typically integrated in men's legends, and formulas, magic chants, and other stylistic means characteristic of women's folktales. Sadly, these genres and styles are disappearing very rapidly.

Download or read book Spelling Morphology written by Dorit Diskin Ravid and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-08-31 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modern Hebrew is a highly synthetic Semitic language—its lexicon is rich in morphemes. This volume supplies the first in-depth psycholinguistic analysis of the interaction between morphological knowledge and spelling in Hebrew. It also examines how far this model can be applied to other languages. Anchored to a connectionist, cognitive, cross-linguistic and typological framework, the study accords with today’s perception of spelling as being much more than a mere technical skill. Contemporary psycholinguistic literature views spelling as a window on what people know about words and their structure. The strong correlation between orthographies and morphological units makes linking consistent grammatical and lexical representation and spelling units in speaker-writers a key research goal. Hebrew’s wealth of morphological structures, reflected in its written form, promotes morphological perception and strategies in those who speak and write it, adding vitality and relevance to this work.

Download or read book Arabic Grammatical Tradition written by Suleiman Yasir Suleiman and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of taE lil occupies a central position in the Arabic intellectual tradition. In grammar it covers a host of areas of immense theoretical interest, including description, methodology, epistemology and explanation. This book sets out to deal with the concept by investigating the major works of those grammarians who have contributed most in theoretical terms to its development and elaboration in the Arabic Grammatical Tradition. It seeks to do so by considering the relation between grammar, on the one hand, and jurisprudence and theology, on the other. In dealing with the above issues an appeal is made, both directly and indirectly, to some of the relevant ideas in the philosophy of science as they apply to this tradition. The approach adopted is cross-disciplinary in orientation to reflect the centrality of taclil in the Arabic intellectual tradition, and reference is therefore made to the employment of this concept in jurisprudence and, to a lesser extent, theology. This is the first major study in any European language or in Arabic to be published on the topic. It will be of interest to Arabic grammarians, students of Arabic and general linguistics and to specialists in Islamic jurisprudence and philosophy.
