Abstract:

 This paper aims at discussing the possibility of exploiting the basic concepts of Arabic linguistics for the analysis of a language other than Arabic , namely English . For this , we start by presenting briefly the neo-khalilian theory , being the main source from which we have extracted the methodological tools and the principles put forward by the first arab grammarians for the description of Arabic many centuries ago ; then , we review how some linguistic units have been defined through a number of western linguistic theories in comparison to the neo-khalilian model of analysis ; finally , we end by explaining why we are trying to apply the neo-khaliliar . for the analysis of English.
