Abstract: | |||||||
It would be well to ask first of all what the intention
of this thesis is, and what is its aim. Perhaps the answer
can best be summed up in the one word "why? " A large number
of competent grammars have been written by scholars, both
Oriental and Western, which deal at varying lengths with the
various aspects of Arabic grammar. However, most'-of these
works give only the rules for the various syntactical points:
this work is concerned with trying to establish why and not
simply when, the accusative is used, and the depth of the
Arabs' thought into their grammar and its analysis. This
is not an endeavour to write another grammar, but of necessity
much of what the grammarians had to say must be reproduced,
since no analysis can be made until the facts have been
revealed.
