Methods of (Interrogative-Call-Negation) between Arabic and Socotri

Abstract

This study titled "Methods of (Interrogative, Calling, Negation) between Arabic and Soqotri" was conducted by the researcher to study the Soqotri language. The study was divided into three sections. First section " Interrogative Method " discussed the definition of interrogation, its tools, and omission in both languages. Second "Calling" discussed the definition of calling, its tools, and omission in both languages, as well as some issues related to calling such as help, surprise, and lamentation. Third "Negation" discussed the definition of negation and its tools in both languages. In each part of the three sections, the study sought to balance and compare the two languages to identify the similarities and differences between them.

The importance of this study lies in the fact that it serves the Soqotri language, and enriches the Arabic library with research related to it, and reveals the points of agreement and disagreement in the studied methods between the two languages. The study aims to know the tools used for the studied methods in Soqotri to know the points of agreement between the two languages, and to seek to find a scientific study of the studied methods in the two languages.

The study reached results, including that Soqotri has its own tools for the studied methods, and that Soqotri can omit the tool of Interrogative, Calling, and called like Arabic, and we find that Soqotri has a smaller number of tools. The study adopted the descriptive and comparative approach, where the material is described and then the comparison between the two languages.
