Abstract

The importance of this research stems from the principle of interest in the heritage of the Arabic language, especially in the late ages, which was a link between the outstanding masterpieces of clasical literature with the eleventh century AH. The essence of the attention is based on two prominent scholars, the first is Imam Ibn al-Majradi, known for his great efforts in language and for his poem "Nadhm ulMijradiyah". The second is (Ybork) or (Ibork) nicknamed AlSemalali, who explained this poem with extensive commentaries that help the reader to understand what is meant by the original text. This paper, therefore, is an attempt to shed light on the linguistic thinking of that era, through examining this work and to attract the attention tothe western countries of the Arab Homelend, to encourage researchers, to do further studies related to the scholars of Arabic language.
