The Reative Pronoun Its Clause in the Arabic Grammar

Abstract

AbstractThe present work is an inductive investigation to(الَّذِي) (allathi; who, that, which) and its relative clause in the Glorious Quran. Grammarians are unanimously gree on that the relative clause is an independent linguistic construct, integral structurally and it implies a series of attributive sub functions. Its main grammatical function, however, is to specify the relative noun, which is connected grammatically to the linguistic context of the whole discourse . the study aims at specifying the patterns of the relative clause in the Glorious Quran and the pragmatic signification and connotations derived from each pattern depending on context. The patterns of (الَّذِي)relative clause in the Glorious Quran are magnificent reflections loaded with various solid significations .
