ظاهرة التقديم و التأخير في اللغة العربية

Abstract EN

One characteristic of Arabic is the possibility of fronting and pre-posing sentence elements.

It enables a speaker or writer to front whatever he/she wishes for purposes of meaning, or order of importance, or chronological order.

However, there are cases where fronting does not occur.

That is, the normal position of a sentence element is retained.

Fronting and pre-posing are found in both grammar and rhetoric; with differences of meaning in each separate area.

It is in this research paper that this topic is considered.
