The West is leading the campaign claiming that Iran is ready to cross the border of almost any Gulf country and invade us all.

  • Semantic Innovation and Change in Kuwaiti Arabic: a Study of the Polysemy of Verbs
    ` Semantic Innovation and Change in Kuwaiti Arabic: A Study of the Polysemy of Verbs Yousuf B. AlBader Thesis submitted to the University of Sheffield in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of English Literature, Language and Linguistics April 2015 ABSTRACT This thesis is a socio-historical study of semantic innovation and change of a contemporary dialect spoken in north-eastern Arabia known as Kuwaiti Arabic. I analyse the structure of polysemy of verbs and their uses by native speakers in Kuwait City. I particularly report on qualitative and ethnographic analyses of four motion verbs: dašš ‘enter’, xalla ‘leave’, miša ‘walk’, and i a ‘run’, with the aim of establishing whether and to what extent linguistic and social factors condition and constrain the emergence and development of new senses. The overarching research question is: How do we account for the patterns of polysemy of verbs in Kuwaiti Arabic? Local social gatherings generate more evidence of semantic innovation and change with respect to the key verbs than other kinds of contexts. The results of the semantic analysis indicate that meaning is both contextually and collocationally bound and that a verb’s meaning is activated in different contexts. In order to uncover the more local social meanings of this change, I also report that the use of innovative or well-attested senses relates to the community of practice of the speakers. The qualitative and ethnographic analyses demonstrate a number of differences between friendship communities of practice and familial communities of practice. The groups of people in these communities of practice can be distinguished in terms of their habits of speech, which are conditioned by the situation of use.

As the ninth airline from the Middle East, this will further enhance our flagship airport’s position as the 12th busiest airport for international passengers, a recognition given to us by Airports Council International last year. Air Arabia’s direct service will not only improve KLIA’s connectivity but will also help to promote Malaysia as the preferred hub in this region. As we have highlighted at our 20th AGM, for us to achieve our Group’s focus areas in 2019, one of the strategic themes that we have identified is to be the Best-in-Class Hub.

Any inquiries regarding the journal should be made to Kim Stevenson, 2000 North Parkway, Memphis TN, 38112. 2 Letter from the Editor Dear Readers, The term “modus vivendi” is used in International Relations to mean “a way of life where opposing parties agree to differ,” or agree to disagree. This term exemplifies the aims of this journal, because we hope to provide a forum for discussion and debate on issues important in international relations.
