Representations of Arabic Grammatical Thought in the Digital Age: From Linguistic Description to Modern Linguistic Processing Models

Abstract

This study explores the representations of Arabic grammatical thought in the digital age by examining its transformation from a descriptive linguistic framework rooted in the Arabic grammatical tradition to its contemporary applications in modern computational linguistics. The study is based on the premise that Arabic grammatical thought extends beyond a system of grammatical rules, constituting a comprehensive cognitive and methodological framework for analyzing syntactic and semantic relations . Such a framework provides valuable foundations for current language-processing technologies. The research adopts a descriptive-analytical approach, supplemented by a comparative perspective to identify points of convergence between the principles of Arabic grammatical thought and contemporary computational linguistic applications. It examines the cognitive foundations of Arabic grammatical thought, its manifestations in traditional linguistic description, and its role in modern language-processing technologies, including automatic syntactic parsing, part-of-speech tagging, linguistic corpora, and syntactic parsers. Furthermore, the study investigates the potential of employing Arabic grammatical principles in artificial intelligence models designed for Arabic language processing, while highlighting the challenges and future prospects of such integration. The findings demonstrate that the Arabic grammatical heritage possesses robust theoretical and methodological foundations capable of contributing significantly to the advancement of Arabic natural language processing and the development of more linguistically informed intelligent systems .
