Al-Mu‘arrab Book by Abu Mansur al-Jawaliqi (Farsi)

Description

Al-Mu‘arrab by Abu Mansur al-Jawaliqi is a classical Arabic lexicon that explores the rich history of loanwords in the Arabic language. Written in the 12th century, this pioneering work lists and explains words of non-Arabic origin that entered Arabic through cultural, scientific, and literary exchanges. Arranged alphabetically, the lexicon not only provides the meanings of these words but also sheds light on their etymological roots, showing how Arabic absorbed and adapted terms from Persian, Greek, Syriac, and other languages. As a valuable resource for linguists, philologists, historians, and students of classical Arabic, Al-Mu‘arrab remains a cornerstone reference in the study of Arabic lexicography and language contact. This edition brings one of the most important works of medieval Arabic linguistic scholarship to modern readers.
