The Holy Qur’an is the eternal miracle of Allah revealed on his beloved Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). This book is a miracle from many perspectives, which provides complete knowledge, detail of creation, history, human nature. It is the book of realities and revealed in the high rank of Arabic language. Its linguistic style, unique expressions, word order, selection of words and omission of letters is so purposeful and meaningful that it is impossible produce its replica in any other language. This study specially focuses over mentioning and omission of letters from words and their impact on meaning of words. This is rhetoric and morphological study which deals with structure and form of the words and their semantic impact on the meanings. In this research some words e.g., اسْطَاعُوْا and اسْتَطَاعُوْاlikewise تَتَنَزَّلُ and تَنَزَّلُ etc. would be discussed morphologically and the omission of the letter ‘التاء’ and its impact on meaning would be discussed semantically and rhetorically. The linguistic distinction and uniqueness of the Quranic words would be analyzed and compared with English translations. Through this way rhetoric and miraculous aspect of the Quranic expression would be explored.

The study aimed to identify the most prominent problems faced by teachers of Arabic language, and ways to address them. The researcher used the descriptive descriptive method. The study tool consisted of a questionnaire distributed to a sample of (55) all male students in the middle school for boys in Riyadh in the second semester of 1433-1434H. The teaching of the students is: The weakness of the student in the literacy skills, the obligations of the family learner do not help him to study. The most important problems related to the curricula are: the lack of curricula dedicated to the large student, the lack of participation in the selection of curricula, the lack of development and change constantly, not appropriate time to complete. The most important problems related to the environment are: There is no suitable library for adults, there is no suitable educational means, no furniture suitable for the age of the students, no educational resource center and a building of its own. There were no statistically significant differences at (α0.05) between the responses of the study members according to the following variables: qualification, experience. In the light of the results, the researcher made a number of recommendations: To promote the learner's knowledge of reading and writing skills, to take care of homework assignments, to develop special curricula for the great student and to involve the teacher in her selection; to create an appropriate library for adults;

Improving the ability of Arabic (bi-ah lughawiyyah 'arabiyyah) and Islam with the BISA system program. The purpose of this study is to describe the application of Arabic and Islamic learning in the Bogor Arabic Village explicitly. The research method uses qualitative. Data collection techniques: (a). Observation, (b). Interview (c). Documentation study. Conclusion (1). Arabic learning with the muhadatsah model for speaking skills and the qawa'id method for reading skills. (2). Islamic religious education starts from tahfizhul Quran, creed material, worship, morals, and muamalah. The learning process impact is mastering the Arabic language and applying it to the practice of Islam. It combines village and school concepts with the selection of beginner, intermediate, and advanced material.

Abstract Background Habitat loss is a key threat to the survival of many species. Habitat selection studies provide key information for conservation initiatives by identifying important habitat and anthropogenic characteristics influencing the distribution of threatened species in changing landscapes. However, assumptions about the homogeneity of individual choices on habitat, regardless of life stage, are likely to result in inaccurate assessment of conservation priorities. This study addresses a knowledge gap in how animals at different life stages diverge in how they select habitat and anthropogenic features, using a free-ranging population of African wild dogs living in a human-dominated landscape in Kenya as a case study. Using GPS collar data to develop resource selection function and step selection function models, this study investigated differences between second order (selection of home range across a landscape) and third order (selection of habitat within the home range) habitat selection across four life history stages when resource requirements may vary: resident-non-denning, resident-heavily-pregnant, resident-denning and dispersing. Results Wild dogs showed strong second order selection for areas with low human population densities and areas close to rivers and roads. More rugged areas were also generally selected, as were areas with lower percentage tree cover. The strength of selection for habitat variables varied significantly between life stages; for example, dispersal groups were more tolerant of higher human population densities, whereas denning and pregnant packs were least tolerant of such areas. Conclusions Habitat selection patterns varied between individuals at different life stages and at different orders of selection. These analyses showed that denning packs and dispersal groups, the two pivotal life stages which drive wild dog population dynamics, exhibited different habitat selection to resident-non-breeding packs. Dispersal groups were relatively tolerant of higher human population densities whereas denning packs preferred rugged, remote areas. Evaluating different orders of selection was important as the above trends may not be detectable at all levels of selection for all habitat characteristics. Our analyses demonstrate that when life stage information is included in analyses across different orders of selection, it improves our understanding of how animals use their landscapes, thus providing important insights to aid conservation planning.

Query expansion is the process of adding additional relevant terms to the original queries to improve the performance of information retrieval systems. However, previous studies showed that automatic query expansion using WordNet do not lead to an improvement in the performance. One of the main challenges of query expansion is the selection of appropriate terms. In this paper, the authors review this problem using Arabic WordNet and Association Rules within the context of Arabic Language. The results obtained confirmed that with an appropriate selection method, the authors are able to exploit Arabic WordNet to improve the retrieval performance. Their empirical results on a sub-corpus from the Xinhua collection showed that their automatic selection method has achieved a significant performance improvement in terms of MAP and recall and a better precision with the first top retrieved documents.

AbstractThis article investigates a specific practice that recipients in Dutch talk-in-interaction use when responding to turns that have as one of their main jobs to inform. By responding to an informing turn with an oh-prefaced nonrepeating response that has yes/no-type interrogative word order, recipients treat that turn as counter to expectation and request both confirmation of the inference formulated in his/her response, as well as reconciliatory information for the two discrepant states of affairs. This practice is compared to similar cases where the nonrepeating response is not oh-prefaced to show that such turns implement different actions. Data are in Dutch with English translations. (Counterexpectations, change-of-state, yes/no-type interrogatives, action formation, practions)*
