Word, Phrase & sentence structures

The course offered by The Sibaway Institute focuses on the finer points of Classical Arabic, specifically the structures of a Nominal and Verbal sentences. It will demonstrate how changing word positions and/or structures will affect the meaning. We will look at bringing forth and delaying different aspects of a sentence including the subject, predicate, doer,object prepositional phrase, adverb and we will give many examples in and outside the Quran.

The subjects covered in the course will be related predominately to Balagha (Rhetoric) and a basic understanding of Arabic will be highly recommend.
