Order methods in (Umman) dialect light of the standard Arabic

Abstract

This paper conducts a field descriptive study in (Umman) dialect , in the light of the standard Arabic. The dialect was taken from native speakers. We tried to diagnose its different phenomena to see how close or far it is from the standard Arabic. The purpose was to prove what is wrong and to reconnect it with its standard origin. We talked about Umman and we showed its importance in the Arab Island, and also the aim behind studying the dialect of this part. We defined composition and we illustrated its two types the declarative and the non-declarative. We focused on the declarative compositional manners like the imperative, prohibitive, interrogative, Wishing, vocative and warning and tempting. We explained each one through referring to some examples from the dialect, to show how close or far it was from the dialect. The study came up with some findings, as some are illustrated bellow:

1-      The Yemenis are still connected to the old Hamiri dialect.

2-      They are also still connected with the language of Hijazis

3-      The Yemenis use (To happen) instead of the interrogative (when)

- 4The vocative words in the dialect are used much more than in the standard.
