Description
This detailed exposition of ʻIlm al-ṣarf, or Arabic morphology, focuses on the structural transformation of verbs and the linguistic rules governing their inflectional endings. The text systematically examines how verb forms change across tense, mood, voice, and person through predictable morphological patterns. It also analyzes the rules that determine final vowel markings and their grammatical significance. For researchers, this work offers an advanced treatment of verb morphology, moving beyond root classification to explain the dynamic processes of taṣrīf, or morphological transformation. Its systematic presentation of inflectional rules provides essential tools for parsing and generating correct verbal forms in Arabic.
