Al-Khaleel Phonetic Concept in the Light of the Introduction of Al-Ayen

Abstract

Al-khalil Bin Ahmed Al-Farahidi, died in (175) Hijri, put the first foundations for the science of Arabic phonetics. This is reflected in the introduction of the Lexicon of Al-Ayn. In this introduction, there was an early phonetic information which was not realized by science until centuries after Al-khalil's age  except forArabic. He was not restricted in mentioning phonetic subjects  in his introduction only, yet he spread them and  distributed in every single page of his book. In Sibawayh's book, Al-Ketab, died in180 Hijri,  who was the latest to convey  him.

In the light of the foregoing, this research came to examine Khalil's phonetic idea in light of the introduction of Al-Ayn and what he spread in his lexicographer in terms of phonetic ideas, in order to classify these ideas and gather their various pieces and explain their paces. The research includes an introduction  and two topics; the first is Al-khalil’s phonetics notion apart from the structure of the Arabic word, phonetics,  included ( phonological organs,  phonological outputs and phonetic characteristics. The second is  his phonetics notion within the structure of the Arabic word and the phonetic  phenomena which I  ended it up with a conclusion in which the research results included.
