Abstract

The proper noun being the object of linguistic analysis in the Arabic linguistic tradition is examined in the article on the basis of Arab grammarian Ibn Ya’īš’s treatise “Šarḥ al-Mufaṣṣal” (XIII century). The object of analysis in question is relevant to studying logical and semantic (reference), onomasiological (nomination), morphological, derivational and syntactic aspects of Arabic grammatical theory.
