| Summary: | This thesis discussed the conjunctions in Arabic, where the units of the
language with the conjunctions would be a larger and regular grammar. The
research was conducted through a Arabic linguistic perspective. The researcher
focused this study on the concept, behavior, and meanings of the conjunctions in
Arabic with syntactic and semantic approaches.
Based on the discussion of the conjunctions in Arabic, it could be
concluded that the tools linking one constituent to another constituent varied. One
of these tools was a conjunction or 'athf in term of the concept of the Arabic
language. The presence of 'athf that linked language units could be an integrated
grammar.
In addition, the meaning would vary. The variety of the relations of the
meaning reflected the diversity of messages and problems of human life as
language users. It was necessary to say that in this study were found twelve
meaning relations of 'athf in Arabic, namely (1) the meaning of the sum, (2) the
meaning of the direct sequence, (3) the meaning of the order of grace periode, (4)
the meaning of the election, (5) the meaning of allowance, (6) the meaning of
doubt, (7) the meaning of vagueness, (8) the meaning of the details, (9) the
meaning of completion, (10) the meaning of the assertion, (11) the meaning of the
correction, (12) the meaning of negation, and (13) the meaning of the equation.
