Imperative Verb in The Light of Computational Linguistics

Abstract

The present paper investigates the imperative verb in Arabic through the analytical framework of computational linguistics, aiming to move beyond traditional grammatical description toward a systematic, specification-based model of language. The study employs a computational-analytical approach, combining descriptive linguistics with computational modeling. It involves data-driven analysis of Arabic imperative verb structures—both trilateral unaugment and augmented forms—and examines their morphological, phonological, syntactic, and semantic dimensions. Findings indicate that computational linguistics provides a robust foundation for redefining Arabic grammatical structures with precision and scalability. The study successfully formulates a computational model that not only specifies the structure of the imperative verb but also highlights ambiguities and complexities inherent in Arabic morphology and syntax. Future research should extend this computational modeling to other grammatical categories in Arabic to build a more comprehensive digital linguistic framework.
