التصريف العربي القديم في ضوء الفكر الصوتي المعاصر

Abstract

Morphology is one of the pillars of linguistic lessons in general. It’s concerned with getting into the heart of Arabic terms and identifying their changes. Like any other science gives to and takes from other branches of linguistics. Perhaps the most prominent of those branches is phonetics; it takes from it in many cases. If morphology is the change that occurs in the structure of words by addition, elision or assimilation, most of these changes are fundamentally based on sound facts. The study of Arabic Morphology in phonetic terms is a recent trend that has proven its effectiveness in understanding many morphological questions in studying them phonetically, away of the Arabic transcript limitations that generally neglects the sound interactions in words because it focuses on merely on the voiceless rather than the voiced sounds, which is the old researchers fault. They were interested in the form of words and neglected their pronunciation that made words lose their phonetic basics. This led them to come up with estimated roots that did not represent the reality of these words. We referred in this research to some of those studies that criticized the old morphological heritage, attempted to revise its chapters and explore its weaknesses, in an effort to find accurate phonetic interpretations of various Arabic morphological issues through their reliance on the concept of syllables. It is also worth mentioning that most of these studies including our current study do not at all mean adhering to what is modern and underestimating the value of the old morphological theory. But the only aim was to combine the old and the modern in order to build and reformulate a purely morphological theory that goes in accordance with modern linguistics, and better represents the linguistic reality in order to comprehend its topics and facilitate it for students.
