These dots are an integral part of a letter, since they distinguish between letters that represent different sounds.

  • Bamana Texts in Arabic Characters: Some Leaves from Mali
    Tal Tamari Bamana Texts in Arabic Characters: Some Leaves from Mali Abstract: This study analyses five Bamana-language texts composed in the ear- lier twentieth century by Amadou Jomworo Bary, a Fulbe scholar from the Masina (Mali), that were hand copied in 1972 by the Fulbe scholar and researcher Al- mamy Maliki Yattara. The writing system, which uses modified Arabic characters to note phonemes specific to Bamana, is compared to other West African adapta- tions of Arabic script. The article also examines the doctrinal positions developed and world view implicit in the texts, which concern water rites in San (Mali), Is- lamic belief and practice, and healing. Attention is drawn as to how knowledge of local cultural contexts can contribute to a better understanding of these manu- scripts. 1 Introduction In 1994, I published a study of five short texts (totalling five and a half pages), written in Arabic characters in the Bamana language. These texts had been cop- ied by Almamy Maliki Yattara, a Muslim scholar then employed by the Institut des Sciences Humaines in Bamako, from originals held by a friend of his, Abou- bacar (commonly known as Bory) Bary, in 1972 in San (Mali). Research conducted in the intervening twenty years has confirmed the analysis of the writing system, and has led to few changes in the transliteration (Arabic to Latin characters), transcription (reconstitution of the Bamana discourse) and translations of these texts. On the other hand, personal fieldwork undertaken in the interval, as well as general progress in the understanding of West African writing practices, makes it possible to place these texts in much sharper historical and cultural per- spective.

  • Grammar Grammatical and Weight Wise Concordance of Qur'an Quran
    Idea & Some Work on Grammatical and Weight Wise Concordance of the Qur'an (Version 1.1) I am thankful to ALLAH for honoring me with this oppurtunity to serve Qur'an, no credit is mine at all. All credit goes only to ALLAH. Any mistake is due to me. Advantage: Grammatical concordance of the Qur'an. Many efforts are being made on vocabulary and root wise concordance of the Qur'an , but this idea focuses on grammatical and weight wise concordance of the Qur'an using similar weights of different roots. Like in vocabulary concordance different weights of the same root have some link to the root meaning, similarly in grammar concordance same weights usually have some similar effects on the meaning of the root. Column named Fa Ayn Laam is meant to put 3 letter roots of words e.g. for Raheem root is ra ha miim, column weight is to put weight of root e.g for Raheem weight is fa'eel, and G2 is meant to put noun forms for ease of grouping related words, like verbal forms have terms like I, II, III etc. Similarly these can have terms like N01.1, N01.2..., N02.1..., N03.1... etc. For columns, weight and root, additional columns containing text in Arabic in addition to transliteration can be added making total new columns as 5. For roots containing 2 letters suad laam is used and for 4 letters ba ra zay kha is used. Source: Lemmas sorted by : Group & Frequency from http://corpus.quran.com/lemmas.jsp as on 1-December-2010 .

  • Translation: Arthur John Arberry; Transliteration: German…
    International Journal of Arts Humanities and Social Sciences (IJAHSS) Volume 1 Issue 2 ǁ September 2016. www.ijahss.com Contrastive Suprasegmental Features on English and Arabic IPA Transcription of Surah Al Ya Sin Assist. Prof. Dr. Metin Yurtbaşı Bayburt University, Faculty of Education, ELT Department, Bayburt, Turkey ABSTRACT: The greatest difficulty in reading Arabic script for nonnatives has long been considered as the absence of short vowels, however there is more to be dealt with. While the correlation of 28 Arabic consonants pose no great difficulty in decyphering the script, the six vowel phonemes voiced only by three letters even with help of some relevant diacritical marks (ḥarakāt) do not satisfy the needs of nonnatives. As the bulk of Arabic publications is written without such marks, foreign readers are at a loss to read the written work intelligibly unless they are familiar with the grammar of the language. Especially practicing Muslims who are required to read the Islamic Scripture Qur’an even without a deep knowledge of its language are unable to produce acceptable pronunciation. In order to meet the needs of such nonnative believers and the learnerns of the Arabic language, many attempts have been made to transliterate (romanize) the texts replacing letters with their close equivalents in the Latin alphabet by some modifications. Although this method has helped somewhat in decoding the consonants, the issue of vowel representation has always been an unresolved issue. The IPA advocates suggested corresponding vowels from its files and that seems to have solved at least the segmental part of the problem. However knowing that the overall speech intelligibility lies more with prosody, i.e.
