الشذوذُ الصَّرفِيُّ في بِنيةِ الكلمةِ في كتابِ ارتشافِ الضَّرَبِ لأبي حيّانَ الأندلسيّ (دراسةٌ لِنماذجَ مُختارةٍ)

Abstract

Morphological anomalies are an important phenomenon affecting the structure of words in the Arabic language for numerous reasons and justifications. Scholars have discussed this phenomenon in numerous chapters, reaching its peak during the maturing era of various linguistic schools. Abu Hayyan al-Andalusi represents the link between the Andalusian and Basran schools, and some researchers consider him to be the founder of a middle school between the various schools. Therefore, his views are of particular importance among these schools, and he published them in his comprehensive encyclopedic books, including his book (Irtishāf al-Darab min Lisan al-Arab), in which he addressed more than ninety issues of morphological anomalies. These issues are distributed across various topics in the discussions of nouns, verbs, verbal nouns, derivatives, broken plurals, diminutives, relative pronouns, and others. Issues of irregularity in the original word structure represent an important part of the subject of morphological irregularity. This research addresses a sample of selected issues in morphological irregularity in word structure, cited by Abu Hayyan in his book (Irtishāf al-Darab min Lisan al-Arab), discussing each issue within the framework of what scholars before and after him have mentioned. This discussion aims to understand Abu Hayyan's method in addressing these issues and to derive his approach to them, serving the efforts of this great scholar and benefiting researchers of his approach.
