CLASSIFICATION AND SEMANTIC FEATURES OF WORDS BELONGING TO THE PREPOSITION CATEGORY IN ARABIC

Abstract

This article comprehensively analyzes the classification and semantic features of words belonging to the preposition category in the Arabic language. The preposition category, which is considered one of the important parts of Arabic grammar, is distinguished by its grammatical function and semantic richness. The article first of all discusses the form and semantic peculiarities of words belonging to the preposition category, the criteria for their separation as a category, and their relationship with other word categories. In addition, the lexical and semantic possibilities of words in the preposition category, their use in various speech situations, and the meanings they carry in the context are scientifically analyzed.

In the course of the research, based on classical and modern sources of the Arabic language, the grammatical rules and practical application methods of the preposition category were revealed. At the same time, various classifications of the preposition category - semantic, syntactic, and functional aspects - were widely studied. The article also highlights the role of words in this group in speech as connecting, reinforcing, directing, and determining means of meaning.

The article serves as an important theoretical and practical resource for linguists engaged in the grammar and semantics of the Arabic language, students of Arabic philology, and researchers studying sacred texts from a linguistic perspective.
