Fixed Phrases in Arabic, A Study in Objects (mafaīl) Between Competence and Language Storage memory


Abstract in English

This research aims at studying fixed phrases that belong to the language store and that are recalled whenever needed without any change in the structure. These phrases are similar to proverbs and have firm uses in language i.e, they cannot be creatively produced, because they do not follow the competence. This subject, if studied widely, will need a lot of effort and time. Thus the study focuses only on fixed phrases relative to objects. The study reveals that this choice has led to many types of evaluation of the case itself. The study found the direct object and the unrestricted object was the richest with such phrases, and finally it explained this phenomena using an analytical method.
