Abstract

This study was intended to look for some features of dialect variation designated by AL-Farra`a, who compiled them in his book, Ma`ani AL-Qura`n. It addressed the three linguistic levels of Arabic: the phonological, the morphological and the syntactical, related to different issues of the Arabic language .

The study has  pointed out,in the one hand, that the stated dialects are indicative of large investment as well as clear interest in Arabic Speech employed by AL-Farra`a in order to discover the meanings of AL-Qura`n, and construct its regulations and rules, and that all these dialects are not suitable for building up rules, according to AL-Farra`a, who denied and rejected some of them, and described others as errors, or grammatically incomplete on the other hand.
