Semantic Properties

Historically, the language contact contributed by Muslim preachers among the Arab traders of diverse origins that some of them opted to migrate and intermarry with the local Malays, thus, intermingled with the locals that had influenced the Malay/Malaysian language to borrow more Arabic words. Some semantic properties of the loanwords are adopted, but some are adapted. This study concerns with the divergent meaning of some adapted ones. 18 Malay-Arabic homophonous loanwords were purposely sampled – (the limited sample is due to the journal words limit). It is observed that despite of their similar utterance and spelling/transliteration but they have partially or fully dissimilar meanings when being compared between the two languages. Generally, it may confuse users of both languages, specifically the Arabian students who are compulsory to pass the Malay language in order to pass their study in Malaysia as well as Malay students who are studying in Arabian countries. Moreover, it may affect their meaning in the Malay translation for the Holy Qur’an/Prophetic Tradition (Hadith). So, it is essential to engage academics of the Islamic studies, and the Malay-Arabic linguists alike with the crucial issue stemmed from the bilingual mastery level that involved both languages departing from the rising movement of re-examining and re-envision criticality in language studies. Henceforth, the Malaysian Muslim society could dynamically develop further ahead after more than 10 centuries exposed to the Arabic language rather than being stagnant in minimalism evermore.

ملخص البحث:تأثرت علوم اللغة العربية في نشأتها بالعلوم الشرعية وخاصة علم الفقه، حيث صاغ النحويون أصولهم النحوية على نمط الأصول الفقهية، وساروا على درب الفقهاء في ذلك، واتجه النحويون إلى الإغراق في التعليل والتأويل والجدل. وشغل البحث في أصول النحو حيزًا كبيرًا من تفكير علماء العربية، واستخدموا تلك الأصول في صوغ وتفسير القواعد التي تحكم اللسان العربي ومن بين تلك الأصول (الاستصحاب). وقد كان للاستصحاب مكانة متميزة في أصول النحو العربي على الرغم من مجيئه في مرتبة متأخرة بعد السماع والقياس، وهذا البحث محاولة للكشف عن هذا الدليل، وبيان مكانته بين أدلة النحو العربي، وعلاقته بقضاياه، وبيان دوره في تفسير وتوجيه عدد كبير من القضايا النحوية والصرفية والشواهد التي ثار حولها خلاف بين النحويين على اختلاف عصورهم ومذاهبهم واتجاهاتهم الفكرية، كذلك إلقاء الضوء على ما يقدمه هذا الدليل من معلومات تتعلق ببعض الشواهد التي وردت مستصحبة لأصولها، والتي عبرها ملاحظة التطور التاريخي للغة العربية ودراسة بعض مظاهره. الكلمات المفتاحية: الاستصحاب- الحال- الأصل- الفرع- الضرورة.Abstract:Arabic Language studies were been influenced in their formation with Islamic studies most especially Islamic Jurisprudence.(Al- Fiqh). The Arabic Grammarians designed their grammatical basis in line with jurisprudence’s. Arabic Grammarians followed Greek trends on their explanation, interpretations and argumentations. Research on formation of Arabic Grammar takes a vast place from reasoning of Arabic Language erudite thoughts. These fundamental basis were used for design and explanation of rules that monitor and judge Arabic Language. Among these basis is “Al- Istis haab” Conjunction. Despite its late arrival after “Sama’u” audible and “Qiyaas” analogy, this term retained a distinguished place in fundamental basis of Arabic Grammar. This research is going to explore this proof and emphasis its statue among Arabic Grammar guides, its relationship with some issues and elaborating its role in explanation and directing a vast number of Syntax and Morphology issues and citations that raised varieties among Grammarians irrespective of their eras, doctrines, and thoughts trends. And to shade more light and what this symptom contributes to knowledge, which are related to some grammatical evidences that have been found in accompany of these basis. Some noticeable and long aged development for Arabic Language and study of its phenomenon completed through it.Keywords: Conjunction- Condition- Foundation- Branch- Neccesity.Abstrak:Ilmu-ilmu bahasa Arab pada awalnya terpengaruh dengan ilmu-ilmu syariah khususnya Ilmu Fiqh. Para sarjana bahasa meletakkan kaedah tatabahasa mereka berdasarkan kepada format kaedah-kaedah Fiqh dan bersandarkan kepada pendekatan para Fuqaha’ dalam usaha mereka. Ini seterusnya menjadikan perbahasan bahasa menjadi begitu dalam kupasannya dengan pentakwilan yang pelbagai dan perbahasan yang berpanjangan.

The Impact

Arab travellers and traders along the eastern African coast, more than 1000 years ago, were the first Arabic speaking people to bring Arabic language in contact with the other African languages in eastern and later southern Africa. Over the years, Arabic gained a lot of influence in the region. The impact of Arabic can be seen, especially in old scripts, loanwords, Arabic accents and sound features in some of the local languages.This article examines the nature and extent of contact situations between Arabic and two languages, namely Kiswahili, spoken in eastern Africa, and Setswana, spoken in southern Africa. The study is based on the Language Contact Theory, which states that the nature, length and intensity of language contact are the key factors determining the linguistic and sociolinguistic processes that take place. Contact between languages could be either direct or indirect. The main argument of the study is that the extent of influence of a language on another depends not only on the nature of contact, but also, and mainly, on the length and intensity of contact. The paper highlights the domains in which elements of Arabic origin have infiltrated or been adopted in these languages.

Ontology Tree

In Arabic language, studies in the area of opinion mining are still limited compared to that being carried out in other languages. In this paper, we highlight the problem for Arabic opinion mining techniques when analysing reviews having different features with different opinion strengths. The traditional works of opinion mining consider all features extracted from the reviews to be equally important, so they fail to determine the correct opinion of the review and make the review's sentiment classification less accurate. This research presents a technique based on an ontology that uses feature level classification to classify Arabic user-generated reviews by identifying the relevant features from the review based on the degree of these features in the ontology tree. Then, we exploit the important features extracted to determine the overall polarity of the review. Moreover, summarisation for each feature is done to determine which feature has satisfied or dissatisfied customers. To evaluate our work, we use public datasets which are hotels and books datasets. We used [Formula: see text]-measure metrics to assess the performance and compare the results with other supervised and unsupervised techniques. Also, subjective evaluation is used in our method to demonstrate the effectiveness of feature and opinion extraction process and summarisation. We show that our method improves the performance compared with other opinion mining classification approaches, obtaining 78.83% [Formula: see text]-measure in hotels domain and 79.18% in books domain. Furthermore, the subjective evaluation shows the effectiveness of our method by getting an average [Formula: see text]-measure of 84.62% in hotels dataset and 86.31% in books dataset.

Western interest in Islam can be seen as the start of the movement to study Islam since the 12th century. At that time, some western monks ever came to Andalusia in the heyday of the East. They learn in schools there, translating the Koran and Arabic language books into their language in various fields of science. Among them is Jerbert who was elected Pope of Rome in 999 AD, Pierrele Aenere (1156-1092), and Gerard de Gremone (1187-1114). After returning to their home areas they begin to teach the science that has been obtained. This article discusses about Orientals, ranging from the definition, history until its development.
