Abstract

This study examined the performance of AI models in translating classical Arabic grammatical literature, focusing on Alfiyah Ibn Mālik and Naẓm al-Imrīṭī, two foundational texts marked by dense syntactic structures and strong pedagogical significance. ChatGPT and Gemini were evaluated in terms of translation accuracy, terminological precision, and contextual sensitivity. A panel of expert evaluators with more than fifteen years of experience in Arabic instruction assessed each model’s capacity to apply syntactic rules, preserve semantic coherence, and maintain stylistic and didactic integrity. The aim and scope of the paper centred on measuring translation quality through a combined framework of METEOR scoring and human expert judgement. Qualitative evaluation further explored the models’ adaptability to classical Arabic rhetorical patterns and instructional conventions. The results showed that ChatGPT achieved higher lexical alignment and word-level accuracy than Gemini according to METEOR scores; however, both models demonstrated notable limitations in rendering idiomatic expressions and conveying deeper grammatical and contextual meanings. Statistical analysis using the Mann–Whitney U test revealed no significant difference between the two models, underscoring the limited explanatory power of automated metrics when applied to highly structured classical texts. These findings underscored the ongoing need for expert validation beyond numerical scoring and supported the adoption of a hybrid translation framework, in which AI-generated outputs are systematically refined through scholarly review. Future research was suggested to broaden the textual corpus, incorporate additional AI models and evaluation metrics, and further strengthen expert-led validation to enhance the reliability of AI-assisted translation in advanced Arabic grammatical studies.

Abstract

Imlā’ learning in Arabic language education often encounters challenges related to students’ low writing accuracy and limited classroom engagement. Conventional teaching methods tend to be less interactive, which affects students’ motivation and learning outcomes. This study aims to describe the implementation of the Kahoot-assisted Teams Games Tournament learning model in Arabic Imlā’ learning for first-semester students of the Arabic Language Education Program at State Islamic University Sunan Kalijaga Yogyakarta. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach conducted during the Field Study Program from October to December 2025. The participants consisted of all first-semester students of Class C selected through total sampling. Data were collected through classroom observations, documentation of learning activities, analysis of students’ written works, and Kahoot quiz results. The findings indicate that the integration of the Teams Games Tournament model with Kahoot created an interactive and collaborative learning environment that increased students’ participation, motivation, and writing accuracy, particularly in applying Arabic orthographic rules (qawāʿid al-imlāʾ) related to hamzah (including hamzah waṣl and hamzah qaṭʿ), alif layyinah (alif mamdūdah and alif maqṣūrah), and the distinction between tāʾ marbūṭah and tāʾ maftūḥah. This study contributes to Arabic language pedagogy by providing practical evidence on the integration of cooperative learning models and digital game-based media in Imlā’ instruction at the university level. Future research is suggested to apply experimental designs, involve broader participant groups, and examine the long-term impact of this learning model on other Arabic language skills.

Abstract

The low listening ability of students in learning Arabic is caused by the use of learning media that is still conventional and less interactive. This study aims to examine the use of Quizalize as an interactive learning and evaluation medium in Arabic listening instruction and to explore students’ responses to its implementation. Employing a quantitative descriptive approach, the study involved third-semester students of the Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Study Program at Nahdlatul Ulama University of Yogyakarta. Data were collected through a questionnaire designed to capture students’ perceptions of Quizalize in terms of usability, attractiveness, learning motivation, and perceived effectiveness. The results indicate that students responded positively to the use of Quizalize, particularly regarding increased engagement, ease of use, and immediate feedback during listening activities. These findings suggest that Quizalize supports a more interactive and student-centered learning environment and functions effectively as a formative evaluation tool in listening instruction. In conclusion, this study contributes to the growing body of research on digital learning media by highlighting the pedagogical value of Quizalize in Arabic language education. Future research is recommended to investigate its impact on other language skills and to employ experimental designs for measuring learning gains more comprehensively.

Abstract

This study investigates bilingual practices in contemporary Arab society by examining code-switching and code-mixing in the film Assal Eswed, directed by Khalid Marei. The study aims to identify the types and linguistic forms of code-switching and code-mixing, as well as the sociolinguistic factors influencing their occurrence. Employing a descriptive-analytical method within a sociolinguistic framework, the data consist of characters’ utterances collected through observation, transcription, and classification. The analysis is based on the theories of code-switching and code-mixing proposed by Suwito and Chaer, the code-switching factors outlined by Hoffmann and Saville-Troike, and the code-mixing factors proposed by Suwito and Suwandi. The findings reveal that all instances of code-switching are external, predominantly involving shifts from Arabic to English, while code-mixing occurs in the form of words, phrases, and clauses. The influencing factors include role identification, register adjustment, explanatory needs, shared mother tongue, lexical gaps, and habitual speech patterns. These findings indicate that Assal Eswed reflects the interaction between language, identity, and globalization in a bilingual Egyptian context, highlighting film as a relevant medium for sociolinguistic analysis and contributing a foundation for broader investigations of language contact, identity, and bilingualism in Arabic media.

Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of the Flipped Classroom model in enhancing Arabic speaking skills among eleventh-grade students at State Islamic Senior High School 1 Semarang. Given the critical importance of Arabic speaking skills for academic and professional success, despite the common challenges in acquiring these skills at the Madrasah Aliyah level, the study aims to assess the model's impact on pronunciation, intonation, fluency, vocabulary, and grammar. Employing a quasi-experimental design with a one-group pre-test/post-test procedure, 36 students participated, with 32 completing the study. Data were collected through oral performance tests and structured observations. The results indicate a significant improvement in students' Arabic speaking abilities, with the average total score rising from 14.59 in the pre-test to 17.75 in the post-test. Notable gains were observed across all evaluated areas, including pronunciation and intonation, fluency, vocabulary, and grammar. These findings suggest that the Flipped Classroom model effectively enhances speaking proficiency by promoting independent learning outside the classroom and facilitating active classroom interaction, thus improving students' readiness and confidence. This research contributes to foreign language education by demonstrating the positive impact of the Flipped Classroom model on language acquisition and offers valuable insights for educators seeking innovative teaching methods. Future research could explore the long-term effects of this model on other language skills and investigate the role of technological tools and online platforms in further enhancing language learning outcomes.

Abstract

Arabic language learning in Indonesia continues to face challenges regarding standardized assessment systems that are consistent and globally measurable, as existing curriculum dominated by structural-theoretical approaches. This study aims to analyze the relevance of the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) proficiency standards in Arabic language curriculum development, using language assessment theory as the primary evaluative framework. The research method employed is library research, utilizing content analysis of of ACTFL documents and related curriculum literature. The findings indicate that, theoretically, ACTFL possesses strong conceptual coherence with modern assessment theories through its emphasis on construct validity, authenticity, and performance orientation. The integration of ACTFL is capable of reorienting the components of objectives, materials, and teaching methodologies from rule-mastery toward functional communicative proficiency. In conclusion, ACTFL is relevant as an international standard for enhancing the quality of the Arabic curriculum in Indonesia. However, its implementation requires contextual adaptation to the characteristics of Fusha Arabic and the strengthening of educator competencies as proficiency assessors to address practicality and reliability constraints in the field.

Abstract

This study is motivated by the importance of using appropriate learning media to achieve learning objectives optimally, especially in Arabic language learning, which often faces challenges such as low student interest and motivation. One of the media that can be used is video, as it presents material in an audio-visual form, making it more engaging and easier to understand. This study aims to describe the implementation of video media in Arabic language learning in class VIII B at MTs Maftahul Huda Jenggawah. This research employs a qualitative approach with a field research (case study) design. Data collection techniques include observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis uses the Miles and Huberman model, which consists of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The validity of the data is ensured through source triangulation and technique triangulation. The results of the study show that the implementation of video media in Arabic language learning is carried out systematically through several stages: the teacher prepares the lesson plan (RPP), prepares multimedia equipment, opens the lesson, explains the learning objectives, delivers the material, uses video media that is appropriate and supports the material, provides additional explanations, concludes the lesson, and closes the learning session. The use of video media contributes positively to creating a more engaging and interactive learning environment. This study contributes to the development of Arabic language learning based on digital media and can serve as a reference for teachers in implementing innovative teaching strategies. Future research is recommended to examine the effectiveness of video media on students’ learning outcomes quantitatively or through experimental studies by comparing various types of learning media.

Abstract

Syntactic errors in Arabic-language journal abstracts persist even after editorial review, yet systematic post-editorial analysis of Arabic syntactic structures in nationally indexed journals remains virtually absent from the literature. This study aims to identify the types, frequency, distribution, and recurring patterns of syntactic errors in Arabic-language scientific journal abstracts, and to examine their implications for academic writing instruction and editorial practice. A qualitative content analysis was applied to 23 abstracts from five Sinta 2–4 indexed journals Al Mahara, Al-Ta’rib, Arabiyatuna, Arabiyya, and Tadris Al-‘Arabiyyah published between 2021 and 2025, using Corder’s Error Analysis framework and Ellis’ interlanguage theory. The analysis followed four stages: identification, classification, explanation, and evaluation. Thirty-two syntactic errors were identified across nine categories. Phrase Structure Errors were the most frequent (25.0%), followed by Noun Phrase Errors (18.80%), Spelling and Word Choice Errors (12.50% each), and letter jar, Morphology, and i‘rāb errors (9.40% each), Redundancy (6.20%), and Word Order (3.10%). Error patterns are predominantly linked to Indonesian language interference, particularly in phrase formation, grammatical agreement (muthābaqah), and lexical selection, indicating that Arabic grammatical rules have not been fully internalized. This study contributes: (1) a typological mapping of syntactic errors in Arabic posteditorial abstracts, (2) a causal analysis tracing errors to interlingual interference and incomplete rule internalization, and (3) evidence-based recommendations for editorial review and Arabic academic writing instruction. Future research should expand the corpus to Sinta 1 and internationally indexed journals and examine the efficacy of targeted instructional interventions.

Abstract

Language learning in higher education still tends to focus on teaching methods, techniques, and instructional approaches, while the development of linguistic competence as the foundation of language skills has not received optimal attention. In the era of globalization, students are required not only to understand language theories but also to use language effectively in various communicative contexts. Therefore, the implementation of linguistic competence-based learning strategies is considered important to improve students’ language abilities. The purpose of the research is to describe language learning strategies based on linguistic competence that can improve language skills. The type of research that the researcher uses is a type of qualitative field research that is descriptive. This research aims to obtain data related to linguistic competency-based learning strategies and then collect, analyze, and present data objectively. A teacher who understands linguistic competence will be able to teach Arabic comprehensively and effectively. This understanding helps teachers in explaining linguistic aspects systematically, providing solutions to students' difficulties, and improving students' ability to speak Arabic properly and correctly. Thus, linguistic competence is the main foundation for creating a quality and meaningful Arabic language learning process. In addition to understanding linguistic competence, teachers must also understand pedagogical science. Understanding pedagogical science for Arabic teachers is essential to creating an effective and directed learning process. Pedagogy provides a foundation for designing learning strategies that suit students' goals, materials, and characteristics. This study confirms that linguistic competence serves as a fundamental basis for improving students’ language skills through effective and structured learning strategies. The scientific contribution of this research lies in strengthening the integration of linguistic competence and pedagogical approaches in Arabic language learning, there by providing a conceptual and practical framework for enhancing language instruction in higher education. Future research is recommended to involve larger and more diverse samples, examine additional variables such as learning motivation, language environment, and digital learning media, and explore the implementation of linguistic competence-based learning strategies in different educational contexts.
