Arabic Profession-Denoting Nouns and Gender
The goal of this paper is to present a minimalist feature-based analysis that captures the verbal agreement triggered by female referent profession-denoting nouns in Modern Standard Arabic. In this language, nouns are classified as masculine or feminine based on the natural gender of their referents. Masculine nouns trigger masculine agreement on verbs, whereas feminine nouns trigger feminine agreement. However, some profession-denoting nouns are…
Agree-Based Analysis of Arabic Adjectival Agreement and Case
This paper aims at investigating the structural positions occupied by the predicative and attributive adjectives in Modern Standard Arabic. Arabic adjectives are represented as post-nominal DP constituents which exhibit interesting syntactic properties in terms of agreement and Case. The study adopts the feature-based Agree model developed within the Minimalist Program. It introduces an analysis that accounts for how Case feature is valued on adj…
Case Conflict in Arabic Relative Clauses
Case conflict in relative clauses is observed when a relative pronoun carries Case different from the one associated with its base position. Instead, it appears with Case that is identical to Case of its antecedent that is external to the relative clause. This phenomenon - commonly referred to as Case Attraction - is attested in languages such as Ancient Greek, Latin, and German. It is also easily observed in Modern Standard Arabic where the rela…
Forms and functions of jokes disseminated during the Covid-19 pandemic in Jordan
People in Jordan have suffered the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Humorous texts appear to be the people’s key to escape from life stress, minimise the pressure of unpleasant situations and increase pleasure. Jordanian humour attracts our attention to find out what it does duri…
Binding Relations and Their Implications for Word Order in Arabic
This study aims at investigating the distribution of the possessive pronouns in Modern Standard Arabic. It shows that when the possessive pronouns are used as reflexives they have implications for the word order. The different positions occupied by the objects are determined by the presence of these pronouns and the binding relations within the c-commanding domain. Building on the basic assumptions of Binding Theory, possessive pronouns are best …
