Abstract

We present our Arabic linguistic study within the framework of the theory of matrices and etymons (Bohas 2019). The objective of our study is to verify whether it is possible to establish a matrix combining the [labial] feature with the [pharyngeal] or [laryngal] features. The corpus of our research was collected in the Kazimrski and checked in two Arabic dictionary websites al-Bāḥiṯ al-ʻarabī and Muʻǧam al-maʻānī. The article consists of two parts. The first presents the primary observations that show a phonetic-semantic relationship between words derived from etymons including the features: [labial], [pharyngeal] or [laryngeal] and the definition of the notional invariant and the organization of the “bottom-up course” notional invariant. The second concerns the lexical corpus analyzed. In conclusion, we display the results.
