The study of meaning in Arabic has developed within two major traditions: fiqh lughah as a classical linguistic heritage and Arabic semantics as a modern linguistic discipline. However, a systematic integration of both traditions into a comprehensive analytical framework encompassing lexical, grammatical, and contextual meanings remains underdeveloped. This article aims to: (1) explain the epistemological relationship between fiqh lughah and Arabic semantics; (2) analyze the three dimensions of meaning in Arabic; and (3) formulate an integrative framework applicable to the interpretation of Arabic texts, particularly religious texts. This study employs a qualitative descriptive approach using library research design, drawing on relevant classical and contemporary sources. The findings reveal that fiqh lughah and Arabic semantics are conceptually interconnected in understanding meaning. Lexical meaning provides the foundational layer through root systems and derivational patterns; grammatical meaning narrows interpretation through i‘rab and syntactic structure; while contextual meaning determines the final interpretation through situational, cultural, and historical analysis. The integration of these three dimensions forms a gradual and circular meaning-construction model that enhances interpretative accuracy in Arabic texts.

This article examines Arab-heritage learners' preferences on how grammar is taught in English classes with a communicative competence focus, serving as a basis for developing principled teaching practices and teacher-training.Data was collected via a questionnaire from 336 adult learners that attend a private teaching facility using primarily Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) methods.In the study, learners were pooled into lower-level, or higher-level groups depending on their Common European Framework (CEF) language level.Data was collected on learners' preferred teaching/learning strategy choices including (i) deductive or inductive approaches, (ii) embedding grammar in local or 'international' cultural contexts, (iii) use of tasks and exercises or activities, and (iv) immediate or delayed teacher intervention.Results indicate Arab learners' overall preference of grammar instruction practices based on deductive approaches, conditional to teaching practices being embedded in meaningful contexts.Lower-level learners prefer local cultural contexts, while higherlevel learners prefer Western/international ones.Very few Arab-heritage learners prefer methods based on guided inductive approaches using tasks and exercises with periodic teacher-intervention, and almost none chose the deep-end CLT inductive approach.Conversely, shallow-end inductive approaches, with contextualized tasks, activities and delayed teacher intervention are almost as popular as contextualized deductive approaches.This study indicates the importance of meaningful cultural contexts for embedding grammar instruction, reappraising contemporary deductive methods, and the balanced use of shallow-end CLT and inductive approach.These results should therefore help teachers and teacher-trainers realign popular Western beliefs about English teaching and teachertraining when operating in Arab-heritage communities.

This article provided a survey of the English lexis and grammar constructions that serve to realize communicative intention of request aimed at distance enforcement in the American political discourse. The research method was the discourse analysis and the statistics data analysis and its interpretation. As a result, the most common and effective lexical and grammatical language means expressing the communicative intention of request were singled out and their choice explained. The results showed that in the course of the political discourse the opponents used those linguistic means that helped to minimize the pressure and save the face, thus having discussed topical disputable issues. Moreover the study showed the importance of further investigations in order to explain how communicative intentions will be received by its targets and thus how it may succeed (or fail) as a form of persuasion and influence.

The purpose of the article is to justify the role of explanatorydictionaries that form the empirical basis for investigating the lexical semantics ofnouns denoting values. Special attention is paid to revealing the essence ofdictionary articles in terms of their main characteristics as well as to establishingpractical significance of definition analysis as a formalized foundation forUkrainian, English and French axionomens research. The deployment of adictionary article in most lexicographic resources of explanatory character isbased on three main characteristics: dictionary definitions (the paradigmatic partof a dictionary article proper), illustrative material (its syntagmatic part) and thetagging system. The dictionary article is a complex of formal signs with aconcretized structure from which it is impossible to remove or to which no part canbe added so as not to change other parts and do not cause general rearrangement.Since the dictionary article acts as a tool of the lexical meaning interpretation ofthe register unit, its intersection with other distinctive formal signs allows todescribe correlations between the lexical meanings in the language system bymeans of formalized method. Taking into account the informational amount ofdictionary definitions will provide the further determining a seme as a componentof lexical mening of specifically-chosen words denoting values. The prospect ofresearch is to analyze language objectivization of Ukrainian, English and Frenchcultural axiological categories presented with words denoting philosophical, worldoutlook, scientific, social, political, moral, religious, legal, aesthetic values.

The present study discusses the cultural and intellectual movement, now on the point of prevalence in the contemporary Islamic world, which adopts the Western ‘hermeneutical method’ and applies it to the Qur'an in particular, and Islamic religious texts in general. The author shows this movement's complete disregard for the established principles of tafsīr, the traditional Arab-Islamic rules of Qur'anic interpretation and the related Prophetic aḥādīth as preserved in the authenticated Sunna. The author argues that the ‘hermeneutical method’ starts from the preconceived notion that the Islamic heritage is male-centred and biased against women, both theoretically and practically, and, on this basis, proposes that the time has come for an intellectual break with this premise and the re-interpretation of the Qur'an and faith in the light of Western Christian hermeneutics. This paper proposes that this method fails to take historical events and the civilisational Islamic experience into account.

This study investigates the cultural pragmatics of politeness through the integration of Javanese krama inggil expressions in Indonesian academic communication. While most Central Javanese people are bilingual in Javanese and Indonesian, the use of highly respectful Javanese forms within formal Indonesian-language settings remains underexplored. This research aims to examine how Javanese krama inggil expressions are inserted into Indonesian discourse during academic meetings organized by the Higher Education Service Institute Region VI, Central Java. Ten recordings of meeting interactions were analyzed qualitatively to identify the lexical and contextual meanings, politeness levels, and acceptance levels of the inserted expressions. Questionnaire data from lecturers and administrative staff were also collected to assess their perceptions. The findings reveal that krama inggil expressions appear systematically across opening, main, and closing segments of meetings, serving as markers of deference, respect, and cultural identity. The majority of respondents rated these expressions as “polite” or “very polite,” and “acceptable” or “highly acceptable” within Indonesian academic contexts. The results suggest that incorporating local linguistic resources enriches communicative harmony, reinforces cultural values, and demonstrates how politeness strategies transcend linguistic boundaries in multilingual professional settings.

Belâgat ilmi anlam, yorum ve gösterge meseleleri etrafında gerçekleşen tartışmalarından birçoğuna ortak zemin hazırlar. Bu tartışmalardan bazıları alâka [relation - relationship - link] meselesi üzerinde gerçekleşir. Alâka, cümle içerisinde bir sözcüğe yüklenen anlam ile o sözcüğün hakikat anlamı arasındaki bağlantıdır. Mecâzlar bir karine ve sözcüğün hakikat anlamı ile mecâz anlamı arasında bağlantı sağlayacak bir alâka olmadan kurulamaz. Mecâzların alâkaları, iletişimde anlama ve yorumlama sürecini etkileyen en temel faktörlerden sayılır. Belâgat ve usûl-i fıkıh âlimlerinin alâka meselesine bakışları benzerlik arz eder. Ancak alâkaları belirleme ve kategorize etme faaliyetleri neticesinde genel olarak iki yaklaşım ortaya çıkar. Bunlar “bütünleyici yaklaşım” (temel/üst alâkalar) ve “tafsil edici yaklaşım” (genel alâkalar) şeklinde nitelenebilir. Bazı âlimlerin, mecâzların alâkalarını iki, beş ve dokuz gibi sayılara indirgemelerinin amacı, alâka meselesini kavramayı kolaylaştırmak ve alâkalar arası geçişkenliğe dayalı kapsam ilişkisini ortaya koymaktır. Mecâzların alâkaları hakkında yapılan tartışmalar, belagat kitaplarının mecâz ve istiâre bahislerinde işlenir. Ayrıca usûl-i fıkıh kitaplarının lafız bahislerinde de meseleye yer verilir. Lügavî mecâzların alâkaları konusunda sistematik bazı eserler de yazılmıştır. Söz konusu eserler arasında Mahmud el-Antâkî’nin el-‘Alâka adlı eseri öne çıkar. Bu araştırma lügavî mecâzların alâkaları üzerine eğilir. Alâka konusunda yazılan eserlerin, alâka konusuna bakışlarını nicel ve nitel olarak değerlendirir. Araştırma öncelikle mecâz, mecâz-ı mürsel, alâka ve karine meselelerine açıklık getirir. Sonra Mahmûd el-Antâkî ve eserleri hakkında açıklama yapar. Bununla beraber Antâkî’nin el-Alâka adlı eserine yakından bakar. Araştırma bu bağlamda el-Alâka adlı eserin şerhleri ve bu şerhler üzerine yazılan hâşiyeler hakkında açıklamalar yapar. Daha sonra Antâkî’nin el-Alâka’da zikrettiği alâkaları ele alır. Araştırma, Antakî’nin ele aldığı alâkaları iki kısımda değerlendirir: Bütünleyici yaklaşıma göre ortaya konan alâkalar (temel/üst alâkalar) ve tafsil edici yaklaşıma göre ortaya konan alâkalar (genel alâkalar). Araştırma Antâkî’nin zikrettiği alâkaları, diğer bazı eserlerde yer alan alâkalarla karşılaştırır ve alâka faktörünün mecâzların anlaşılmasındaki etkisini ortaya koymaya çalışır.

The comparative study of the Tatar translation of the novel in verses "Eugene Onegin" by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin and the original is performed in this scientific article in order to determine its artistic quality in the aspect of the lexical expressive means transfer of the original. The following methods and techniques were used in the work: comparative and hermeneutic method, etc. The study is based on the translation of Pushkin's novel, which was performed in the early 1950s, by Tatar poets Ahmet Iskhak, Ahmed Faizi and Shaykhi Mannur. In 1930s the novel was already magnificently translated by Fathi Burnash, but soon it was declared an "enemy of the people", and thus the regional committee of the party created a brigade of the best poets and ordered the translation to be published urgently. Based on the analysis of the novel in verse "Eugene Onegin" from the point of view of the lexical pictorial means of language use, we have discovered that Pushkin's language is full of rich imagery and a high degree of metaphorization and epithets. One of the most frequently used lexical stylistic devices in the novel in verse is metaphor and epithet. The author uses both simple and expanded metaphors. The latter can cover whole sentences or several sentences, forming the chain of metaphors for general semantics.

The aim of this research is to determine the meaning of Arabic interpretive texts using a contextual theory approach. This research relies on library resources, including data collected from the premium Arabic channel Bein Sport, with two well-known commentators, namely Uṣām Asy-Syawālī and Hāfiẓ Ad-Darājī. In this study, researchers found at least forty sentences containing the phrase "Arab Commentator" on the Arabic language channel "Bein Sport Premium" that contain contextual meaning. The results of this research demonstrate that contextual theory is highly relevant in interpreting Arabic texts. In these findings, researchers obtained four categorizations of contextual meaning from two prominent commentators, Uṣām Asy-Syawālī and Hāfiẓ Ad-Darājī. These categorizations include language, taste, social culture, and situations and conditions. According to Uṣām Asy-Syawālī's interpretation, there are seven meanings in the aspect of taste, four meanings in the socio-cultural aspect, five meanings in the aspect of language, and four meanings in the aspect of situations and conditions. Hāfiẓ Ad-Darājī, on the other hand, suggests that there are four meanings in the aspect of taste, four meanings in the aspect of language, and twelve meanings in the aspect of situations and conditions. Asbtrak Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui makna suatu teks Komentator bahasa Arab melalui pendekatan teori Kontekstual. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian kepustakaan yang datanya dikumpulkan melalui kanal siaran Bein Sport premium Arab dari kanal Bein sport Premium Arab, dengan dua juru komentator kondang yaitu Uṣām Asy-Syawālī dan Hāfiẓ Ad-Darājī.
