Verbs in evidence of philology An analytical study

Abstract

The investigation aims to examine the varied instances of philological anomalies found in verb formations which diverge from the anticipated standard morphological structures. Linguists have utilized these instances as substantiation to corroborate their viewpoints and bolster their hypotheses regarding morphological issues. The verb instances have been categorized based on the phenomenon of dialectical diversity within Arab communities. Through the analysis of certain cases, it has been illustrated that the deviations in verb formations from the prescribed norms in Arabic can be traced back to ancient origins in Semitic languages, exerting a significant impact on Classical Arabic. The morphological discrepancies in verbs encompassed the configurations of past tense and the resultant present tense, in both regular and irregular verbs. Linguistic data has indicated that verbs did not consistently adhere to rigid morphological regulations; instead, each classical dialect adhered to its distinct morphological framework.
