<![CDATA[The study of classical nahwu is considered difficult to learn and it is more difficult for the non-Arab learners. The critics to classical nahwu began to come from the Middle Ages to modern because it was considered to be full of Greek philosophy and logic until modern linguists attempted to reform the nahwu. This article aims to analyze Al-Makhzumi's thoughts in his theory of Taisir al-Nahwi al-‘Arabi and renewal of Nahwu. This research uses a qualitative method applied in library research such as books, theoretical papers, interpretive studies and so on. The results of the study indicate that Al-Makhzumi saw a language through a descriptive method until he created the theory of taisir an-nahwi al- ‘Arabi with the aim of making the study of nahwu easier and suitable to the context of learners’ needs in this era. According to Al- Makhzumi, there are eight basic principles used in the taisir an-nahwi al-‘Arabi theory, they are: (1) refusing the theory of ‘amil, (2) systematic rearrangement of chapters and topics of nahwu study, (3) consolidating Arabic phonology and Arabic morphology in Arabic syntax, (4) supporting speaking proficiency is the basis of Ibn Madha's nahwu critique method, (5) redefining some of Arabic syntax chapters, (6) removing branches and unnecessary chapters of nahwu such as removing i'rab mahalli and taqdiri, (7) perfecting the chapters deemed necessary to be perfected, and (8) consolidating ma’ani aspects in the arabic syntax written on asalib at-ta’bir. This theory is produced by Al-Makhzumi from several sources, including: Imam Khalil ibn Ahmad al-Farahidi, Imam al-Farra’ and Ibrahim. So, Al-Makhzumi contributed in teaching and learning of Arabic language and modern Arabic syntax.]]>
