Abstract EN
Inflection, the change of word form to mark grammatical distinctions, occurs in a variety of grammatical classes: nouns, verbs, adjectives, pronouns, ETC.
the purpose of the present paper is to describe the verb inflectional morphology in English and Arabic and to conduct a contrastive analysis of both of them.
the research question which is put forth is: how do the verb inflectional morphology in English and Arabic differ from / resemble each other? to answer this question, a systematic descriptive comparative study is carried out with a unique focus on the verb inflectional categories.
eventually, it was found that the Arabic verb inflectional morphology is richer and varied from that of the English one.
such a study has implications in fields like foreign language teaching / learning, translation, electronic dictionaries, natural language processing, and the like.
