It examines how the primary sense of a particular morphological formula may be transformed into secondary one(s). Adopting a Construction Grammar (CxG) approach, the study strives to examine language-specificity and construction-specificity. The study is limited for analyzing how the alternation of the subjective morphological formula into an objective or a verbal noun morphological formula can widen meaning due to the multifunctional nature of this form. Based on Quranic exegeses, it is found that the Quranic text enables the meaning of primary linguistic morphological formula to be transformed into secondary one(s), without favoring one over the other. This paves the way for transferring the text into a higher level of eloquence. Moreover, the results show that meaning widening in these formulas is motivated by an economic factor; brevity or/and summation. Although Arab linguists are cognizant of construction specificity, the researchers found that this is not, to a great extent, notable in the translations of the same constructions, hence; language specificity is not apparent in the major discussion of the article.</p> <p><strong>Key Words: </strong>Construction Grammar; Construction Specificity; Language Specificity; Meaning Widening; Morphological Formula.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> Adnan Mbaideen Elham Makatrah Murad Al-Thunibat Copyright (c) 2024 Jordanian Journal of Arabic Language And Literature 2024-11-05 2024-11-05 20 1 https://dsr.mutah.edu.jo/index.php/jjall/article/view/1087 <p>This study dealt with prepositions in the Andalusian poetry of Al-Rusafi AL-Balansi, and counted them and studied their impact on the construction of that poetry at the levels of meaning and rhythm, aiming to highlight the number of their uses in his poetry and the ratio of their occurrence to the total number of his verses, and to show their role in representing and clarifying its connotations, which leads to understanding them, as well as About its effect on representing the rhythms and meters of his poetry, Adopting the statistical method, and using description and analysis, for their ability to count prepositions and study their functions and analysis, they concluded that he used nine prepositions, which are in order from the most used to the least: the B, from, in, the L, on, to, the K, about and rubba. And it had an effective role in representing meanings and rhythm.</p> عمر الكفاوين Copyright (c) 2024 Jordanian Journal of Arabic Language And Literature 2024-11-05 2024-11-05 20 1
