A study on the Writing Mistakes Made by Persian language Arab Learners

Rana Jouni — Mon, 06 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This research studies the grammatical mistakes made by Arabic-speaking learners writing in Persian language. The study detects the reasons behind these mistakes so that the teachers are made aware of them during the teaching process. It also helps take them into consideration in the process of syllabus design.

The study uses the descriptive analytical method. The research sample is a number of university students learning Persian language at the Iranian Culture Center in the city of Lattakia. The chosen sample is particularly important because it represents highly motivated learners who are not obliged to learn Persian since it is not part of their academic curriculum.

The material subject to analysis is the final written exams given by learners of beginner, intermediate, and advanced proficiency levels. The importance of selecting written exams as research material springs from the fact that they genuinely display the learners' linguistic efforts. They can also help determine the learners' weaknesses by narrowing down their mistakes to the most frequently made and the reasons behind them.

The framework of the study is divided into: a theoretical section, which provides a definition of mistake analysis، its stages، and its practical objective; an empirical section, which consists of an applied study which includes determining the sample, collecting it, and sorting out the different kinds of the learners' mistakes and their frequency by resorting to statistical processes.

The study has shown different kinds of mistakes in the learners' writing, grammatical, morphological, and semantic. It clearly shows that spelling mistakes are the most frequent ones in the Arab learners' writing، which can be attributed to language interference (also known as L1 interference), which "in reality means drawing the learner's linguistic experience from the mother tongue to the language being learned."

Semiotics of Animal Narratives in Ancient Arabic Prose: The Monkey as a Model

Fatima Hassan AlSarahni, Fatima Ibrahim Muhaisen — Mon, 06 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This study revolves around the representations of the monkey in ancient Arabic literature from a semiotic perspective, to reveal the symbolic connotations associated with it in narrative texts. Writers have contributed to producing discourses and riddles extracted from its manifestations. The study relied on analyzing those selected texts that occupied a significant space in tales, maqamat, and others, with a focus on the cultural contexts that contributed to shaping the presence of the monkey as a multidimensional symbol. The study aims to answer major questions, most notably: How is the monkey used as a symbol that reflects societal and human issues? What are the cultural values that appear by resorting to these representations? The presence of the monkey establishes a pattern of implications that reveal the wealth of human knowledge. The Arab's observations have contributed to bridging the knowledge gap, recording human memory, and proving its experiences in roaming the animal world. The semiotic approach has been used as an analytical tool to decipher signals, codes, and signs in the texts under study, which has allowed the exploration of human statements with psychological and emotional connotations that were reflected in those texts, as the monkey is associated with the symbolism of betrayal, treachery, intelligence, insight, the ability to imitate and simulate, and class struggle, in addition to being a sign of gain and livelihood.

In short: The monkey in its literary manifestation has transcended the usual vision as a sarcastic symbol to become an aesthetic tool for reading intertwined and complex human interactions and revealing diverse human values.

Harmony and Proportion in Plato's Theory of Beauty

Alaa Nasser — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

In this research, I tried to shed light on one of the problems of Plato's philosophy and its relationship to other parts of his philosophy, which is the problem of beauty and its relationship to the theory of images. And he was influenced by his teacher, Socrates, in the philosophy of the concept. In this research, I tried to explore his philosophy of beauty through the arts and their types. Good art, as I spoke in the research, is beneficial to the individual and the state. I also tried to overcome obstacles in the theory of participation through art, which Plato sees as an incomplete simulation. In some cases, we cannot understand Plato's philosophy as a contradiction in its literalness, as it takes in its generality and not in its specificity. The subject of sharing between the material and ideal worlds has a lot of contradiction.

Form-Function Correlations in Gen Z’s Instagram Direct Messages

Sara Attaf — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This article investigates the form-function correlations in the Instagram direct messages of fifteen Gen Z’ers living in Latakia governorate, Syria. Roughly, Gen Z is the world demographic born between 1996 and the early 2000s. Due to globalization and the emergence of social media as a hub of intermingling ideologies, cultures, and languages; multilingual Gen Z’ers seem to be inclined to perform patterned and systematic code mixing and switching in a variety of contexts and domains. Instagram direct messages were chosen for the intimate and ‘safe’ environment they provide participants, facilitating their patterned use of code mixing and switching. Adopting James Paul Gee’s model of Discourse, this quantitative-qualitative study outlines the form-function correlations prevalent in the participants’ social language, connecting their discourse to identity construction. This study also adopts the Myers-Scotton model to determine how meaning is negotiated among participants of this Gen Z Discourse. The current study found that participants of this Discourse systematically and strategically employ code switching / mixing in their speech for a variety of purposes, chief among which are topic shifts and lexical gaps, emotional intensity of domain, change in tone, as well as stance expression. Furthermore, code switching / mixing instances occur when participants are discussing gossip, social activities, and opinions of others. It should be noted that the forms under analysis in this article are restricted to code switching and code mixing.

Durability, Intuition, and Vision in Bergson's Philosophy

Zainab Hassan — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Research Methodology:The intellectual methodology in this research will combine both rational and historical approaches aimed at defining the concepts and ideas presented by Bergson and deducing what is beneficial. Our choice of the historical method intends to trace Bergson's concepts back to their original sources, seeking to determine the spirit to which they belong by returning to their French roots.

Conclusions and Recommendations:This research aims to shed light on one of the most significant contemporary philosophies, not only in the context of French philosophy but in the broader scope of modern philosophy as a whole. We have attempted to clarify the intricate relationship between vision, durability, and time.

When Bergson discusses the concepts of vision and intuition, he embodies them with meanings and implications that are inexhaustible and constantly evolving, reflecting new meanings consistent with the spirit of the era in which the vision is defined, striving to express itself through a wide array of concepts that the philosopher innovates. These concepts serve as precise articulations of the problems he encounters and works diligently to address while proposing suitable solutions.

Hence, Bergson endeavored to outline the features of what he called the vision method, ensuring it aligns with the evolutionist doctrine amidst the intense debates involving philosophers and scientists within the French cultural milieu, who were categorized under three philosophical currents: the spiritual current, the vital current, and the evolutionary current.

Importance of the Research:The significance of this study lies in providing a clear picture of coins and their role in facilitating transactions. It emphasizes the importance of coins and the history of their development, outlining the stages of coin manufacturing and illustrating the patterns of currency, such as dinars, dirhams, and fals. It also discusses methods of counterfeiting and forgery, as well as the reasons behind the resort to currency fraud.

Research Problem: This research aims to shed light on coins and their importance in studying history, as coins contribute to enriching historical knowledge in both ancient and modern countries, especially when documents become silent and unable to express or convey information. The research revolves around several important questions:

What is the significance of coins in the study of history?
What are the main categories of currency, and what is the role of money in Islamic sources?
What are the reasons or motivations for using forgery and counterfeiting methods in currency?

Conclusion: From the above, we can see that the importance of this research lies in the information it provides about coins, their types, methods of coin production, and their role in historical studies. It helps to fill the gaps that sometimes arise due to the loss of documents during certain historical periods. Thus, coins serve as the element that completes some parts of historical deficiency, and the invention of coins is a significant historical event, no less important than the invention of writing.

The Religious Reform movement in Europe and its most famous pioneers

Atef khozama, Ayman Salat — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

The reformation movement in Europe did not occur suddrenly, Rather the catholic church was subjected to several reform movementes over the previous centuries, but it was going through them peacefully until the sixtieenth century AD came when the papacy lost its prestige, the popes became agroup that owned and collected money and cared about it more than they cared about the affaires of the church, as it became their own interests, and the interests of their relatives and those in whom they seek refuge have also become their concerns to a greater extent than matters of doctrine and the catholic church, which prompted thinkers and reformers to research the conditions of the catholic church and the necessity of reforming itself on its own from the inside, and in the event that it is unable toreform internally, reform is imposed on it from the outside, and it must accept that, despite what is imposed, one of the means of reform since it was not able to do so on its own.

The religious revolution began in Germany because the philosophy of theology and religious beliefs were more firmly established there than in Italy, where the headquarters of the papacy was.

Manifestations of conflict in Al-Akhtal’s poetry

Maha Muhanna, Naziha Taha, Wafaa Juma — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

In this research, we shed light on some scenes of conflict in the poetry of Al-Akhtal Al-Taghlabi, as he is an incomparable poet who can explore his scenes in a visionary entity, filled with poetry.

Conflict is a state that a person experiences as a result of the difference between his morals, religion, and ideas and the living reality. Al-Akhtal is one of the poets who experienced this conflict as a result of many reasons. He is of a different religion, different mentality, and affiliation, and this is what appeared in his poetry in multiple aspects. The religious conflict appears through the remnants of the poem in the self, and the framing of the tendencies of this conflict between instincts and their inhibitors, and between worldly and religious matters, and we find the cultural conflict represented by the difference in ideologies and intellectual matters that radiate thought and the glows of Arab civilization.

The social conflict manifested itself in the class struggle between the rich and the poor, between officials of authority and the general public, and between the various societal forces that had their presence and influence in Arab life in general. The political conflict was the voice of the citizen against the forces that hindered his progress.

Habermas's Deliberative Structure of Discussion

Itidal Al-Kafiry, Ghassan Alaa El-Din — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Researching the deliberative structure of discussion according to Habermas must push us to trace the most important basic issues that Habermas addressed when he wanted to talk about the status of communicative actions that individuals establish among themselves in a deliberative framework in which they exchange viewpoints, opinions and ideas related to the issues they encounter in their daily lives that must be agreed upon and establish a rule of validity that shows to a large extent the importance of agreeing on those problems, which leads to solving them. However, this will not be possible unless there is a discussion at the public level that takes place among all segments of the people; a discussion whose steps are deeply and effectively established in a way that does not ignore people’s goals and interests, because when those interests are ignored, this means the absence of justifications for public discussion that is supposed to ultimately aim to achieve a shared human life among individuals that achieves their freedom of speech and action alike, not to mention that it gives them a sense of reassurance, security and human dignity.

The Relationship of Philosophy to Hegel’s Scientific Culture

Nisren Ismael, Monzer Shbani — Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000

This research explores the relationship between philosophy and science according to Hegel's philosophy, focusing on how the sci

entific nature of philosophy can be achieved through a comprehensive systematic framework. Hegel emphasizes that philosophical truth is only presented within an integrated logical system that reflects inclusivity and universality. The research examines the concept of philosophy as a science of the absolute idea and highlights Hegel's approach to connecting thought with reality through the notion of experience, which represents a pivotal point in understanding the relationship between philosophy and the sciences.

The study has been revised to address its weaknesses by incorporating a critical perspective on Hegel's system compared to modern experimental sciences and clarifying the challenges his philosophy faces in light of contemporary scientific developments, including sciences that rely on statistical and probabilistic models. Additionally, a comparative discussion between Hegel and other philosophers, such as Kant and Nietzsche, has been introduced to broaden the analytical scope and highlight points of divergence among them.

The research underscores the importance of Hegel's philosophy as a comprehensive framework for understanding the relationship between the particular and the universal, with a focus on the dialectical laws that drive thought and spirit towards self-realization in successive stages. It also discusses the distinction between philosophy and experimental sciences, referencing Hegel's principle of experience and how he addresses experimental subjects compared to reflective intellectual issues.

The study concludes with a critical analysis of Hegel's contribution to linking reason with the absolute, recommending an expansion of Hegel's philosophy to include its applications in the humanities and social sciences, thereby enhancing its academic value in contemporary contexts.
