الآراء الصوتية عند الإمام السيوطي والمُحْدَثِيْنَ

Abstract

Objective of this study is to examine Imam Al‑Suyuti’s phonetic thinking, unveil the phonetic ideas and opinions he put forward, and show the extent of the development of those ideas and their relation to modern phonetic studies. Al‑Suyuti analyzed individual sounds, discussing their points of articulation and characteristics. He also examined them in terms of function and relations with other sounds within the structure of words their compatibility with some sounds, dissonance with others, as well as the changes occurring among certain sounds within the framework of word structure. Similarly, contemporary scholars have succeeded in classifying modern phonetic developments or sounds, while still referring to the phonetic studies of earlier scholars, thereby preserving the meaning of words that emerge from those sounds.
