<![CDATA[Background: The word Ummi originally meant someone who was not good at reading and writing which happened in the jahiliyah era or what is known as the age of ignorance, but this word has other meanings. Purpose: this study aims to find out the word Ummi and its derivation in the Qur'an. Method: In this study, the researcher used a qualitative type of research using a descriptive approach, which by being described in the form of words and language, in a special natural context and by utilizing various scientific methods. Results and Discussion: In this study, it was revealed that the word Ummi and its derivation in the Qur'an when viewed from each verse of the Qur'an with all its derivations into two groups. The first group is some of the scholars of the book, found in surah al-Baqarah verse 78. The Second Group are people outside the scribes, which is meant those who are outside the scribes meaning people who do not believe in the books that are returned to the prophets who have received revelation from allah swt before the prophet Muhammad Saw. Conclusions and Implications: The word Ummi and its derivation in the Qur'an when viewed from each verse of the Qur'an with all its derivations into two groups. The first group is some of the scholars of the book, found in surah al-baqarah verse 78. The second group is people outside the scribes, which is meant people who are outside the scribes meaning people who do not believe in the books that are returned to the prophets who have received revelation from Allah SWT before the prophet Muhammad saw. The implications of this research are the importance of understanding the complexity and depth of the meaning of the word "Ummi" in the perspective of the Quran, in order to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the key concepts in the religion of Islam.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: The exploration of Indonesian slang and its equivalents in the Arabic language offers valuable insights into the dynamics of language use, cultural exchange, and the challenges of translation. Purpose: This study aims to determine the use of slang language and its equivalents in Arabic which is still less popular in everyday speech. This research uses a type of literature research. Method: The data is collected by the method of documentation (input records), then identified and classified according to the type of slang word that is widely used temporally in society. Results and Discussion: The results showed that there were 57 slang words matched in Arabic. 17 nouns, 16 verb- shaped words, 21 adjective-shaped words, and 3 pronoun-shaped words. The slang vocabulary data will continue to grow and develop according to the times and needs, so it has implications for the development of sociolinguistic science because the Slang language was created, and used by certain social groups for internal communication so that what is talked about is not known to others. Conclusions and Implications: this study concludes that slang is an unofficial and non-standard form of language used by adolescents or certain social groups for communication, making it difficult for outsiders to understand and giving it a distinctive character among young people. Slang is widespread in Indonesia, while in Arabic, it is shaped more by the dialects of different countries in the form of Ammiyah language. The study found 57 Indonesian slang words with Arabic equivalents, including 17 nouns, 16 verbs, 21 adjectives, and 3 pronouns. the implications for Arabic language learning emphasize the importance of introducing students to informal language variations like slang, which are commonly used in daily communication by native speakers. Understanding slang in Arabic, influenced by various dialects in the form of Ammiyah, can help students better grasp the cultural and social contexts of the language.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: This study analyzes the themes in 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to determine the theme of 'Pride and Prejudice. Method: This study uses descriptive method and intrinsic approach. This research analyzes the theme, character, characterization, plot, setting, and point of view in the novel. To support this approach, the researcher applied objective theory which is based on library research, things that happen in a work are oriented to the work itself. The research data is taken from 'Pride and Prejudice. Based on the data analysis, the theme of love and arrogance of Pride and Prejudice. Results and Discussion: The result of this study is that humans generally face and feel many things in life. Everyone has feelings of love. Some people can easily express their feelings to others, but some others cannot express them because they are shy, or even become arrogant. It also happens in the love story of the characters in 'Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. Conclusions and Implications: This research gives the message that; If we love someone, it should be expressed, and should not be hidden or harbored. Let us not hate someone because we will never know the feeling of hate that will make us love. Let us not be arrogant or haughty towards others as these traits will alienate us from others. Be kind to others so that by being kind to others we will be far from being called arrogant or haughty. The implication of this research is the importance of expressing feelings of love and not keeping them hidden or suppressed, as this can prevent unnecessary hatred and conflict. Hatred towards someone can turn into love, so avoiding hate is essential in maintaining harmonious relationships.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: al-Hadzf is one of the very interesting Rasm rules studied, because it deals with the elimination of letters or lafaz that will not damage the meaning of a sentence, but has linguistic reasons that make it more unique, interesting, and has an i'jaz. Purpose: This study aims to find out the phenomenon of al-Hadzf letters and words in the Quran, in surah Ali-Imran. Method: The method used in this study is descriptive qualitative through a phenomenological approach to language by looking at the phenomenon of letter elimination, classifying, and analyzing based on its rules. Results and Discussion: The results of this study show that there are 33 types of words in the Surah Ali Imran which are included in the rules of al-Hadzf. In addition to being dominated by singular nouns and verbs, there is also a demonstrative noun. Conclusions and Implications: From the discussion above, the author concludes that there are 33 words that experience hadzf in surah ali Imran. The 33 words are dominated by hadzf Alif, and occur in mufrad, mutsanna, and plural isim. In the form of fi'il as well, al-Hadzf is found in madhi and mudhari fi'il with word scales (فاعل - يفاعل) (تفاعل - يتفاعل). If we look at the existence of various mushaf in Indonesia, this hadzf rule is the same and different, some are consistent with hadz and some are istbat, or a mixture of both. This research has implications for the knowledge of the rules of writing Arabic orthography studied in imla' and Rasm sciences. The rule makes it clear that there is a phenomenon of letters being read but not written, some being written but not being read, and having a unique meaning.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: In the educational process, learning and teaching activities are the most basic activities. This means that whether or not the achievement of educational goals is successful depends on how the teaching and learning process is designed and carried out professionally. The process of learning Arabic requires an educator to use a variety of strategies. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find out how to increase Maharah al-Kalam using the Al-Khibrah Al-Mutsirah strategy, and what obstacles and solutions exist in increasing Maharah al-Kalam in students. Method: The method used in this research is Classroom Action Research. Results and Discussion: The results of this study indicate that the Al-Khibrah Al-Mutsirah Strategy can increase the Maharah al-Kalam for Class X MA Aliyah Luqman Al-Hakim students. This is evidenced by the acquisition of the value of completeness in cycle 1 reaching 36%. Furthermore, in Cycle 2 it reaches 70% so the number of completeness reaches cycle 2 reaches 90%. Conclusions and Implications: The Khibrah Mutsirah strategy could improve students' Maharah al-Kalam abilities. This is based on the results of the Post-test in Cycle 2 that there is an increase in Kalam in Arabic. Where the number of students who have special value categories, namely 2 students (14.28 %) ranges in the value of 90-100, there are 9 students (64.28%) in the good grade category or ranges from 75-89 grades, and 3 students (21.42%) have sufficient category or range from 60-74. While students have low-value categories, and very low scores are no longer available (0%). The implications for Arabic language learning from the results of this study are the importance of selecting and implementing the appropriate learning strategies, especially in improving students' speaking skills, as well as the need for further studies to enrich the references in the field of Arabic language learning.]]>

<![CDATA[Background: Grammar errors are common because English grammar is still quite complicated to learn, including constructing sentences using the Passive Voice. Purpose: This research aims to identify mistakes in constructing sentences using Passive Voice by MAN Gorontalo Students to become a reference material in improving grammar learning. Method: This research uses a quantitative method. Data is collected through tests and documentation. The research population was 40 students of class X MAN Gorontalo and a sample of 20 students. Data analysis techniques go through four stages, data collection, data presentation, data reduction, and conclusion. Results and Discussion: This study concludes that there are four types of student errors based on the taxonomic strategy in using Passive Voice, namely: 1) addition error, 2) omission error, 3) misformation error, and 4) misordering error) and two types of errors based on communicative effect taxonomy; 1) global error and 2) local error. Conclusions and Implications: This research has implications that English teachers can analyze weaknesses in changing active voice into passive voice by practicing changing tense forms from past verbs for past activities and habitual information for ordinary activities. To correct errors in compiling sentences in passive voice, teachers must also do tutorial-based remedial teaching for passive voice material, especially on the misformation aspect, including assigning students to make a list of active and passive verbs and their use in compiling passive voice]]>

<![CDATA[Background: nterpreting the Qur'an, especially mutasyabihah verses, can be done by syntagmatic and paradigmatic analyses to obtain more detailed information about the meaning and derivations. Purpose: This study analyzes the linguistic and relational meanings of the word Al-yadd in the Qur'an. Method: This research is library research, with a content analysis approach to syntagmatic and paradigmatic aspects. Data were obtained from the redaction of the Qur'anic verses containing the word al-yadd in the form of mufrad, mutsanna, and jamak. The steps of analysisare carried out by a literature study, determining samples, categorization, coding and data processing, and analysis of meaning based on syntagmatic and paradigmatic approaches to determine the relational meaning of al-yadd in these verses. Results and Discussion: The results showed that the word Al-yadd in the Qur'an is mentioned 119 times and spread over 109 verses. In terms of quantity, the word al-yadd is in the form of three variants; singular 21 times, double 32 times, and plural 66 times; from these three variants, the word al-yadd forms many phrases with different meanings in each redaction. The lexical meaning of al-yadd is hand to humans and others. The relational meaning of the word al-yadd in the Qur'an varies greatly depending on the methods and approaches used in the analysis. Among the syntagmatic relational meanings of the term al-yadd are qudrah, power, in front, and the gift of grace. Its paradigmatic relational meanings are palm, arm, benefactor, and humble. Conclusions and Implications: This study concludes that the paradigmatic and syntagmatic approaches to the word al-yadd produce a variety of meanings so that the word should not be interpreted farially because each word must be seen in relation to the adjacent or accompanying words. This research implies that every word in the Qur'an does not only have one fixed meaning, so to find out the diversity of meanings, one of them must be analyzed with a paradigmatic and syntagmatic approach more comprehensively.]]>
