Abstract

Syntacticians built their method of formulating syntactic rules on the common structures of Standard Arabic. They often used to mention many of the uncommon structures which were heard from Arabs, but did not abide with the general Arabic rules of syntax.

A number of well-known Arabic references of syntax were consulted, from which many uncommon structures were collected. Thus, the study attempted to clarify, analyze, and contrast these structures with similar common ones in a minimal way without reference to syntacticans' differences and their logical syntactic evidence.
