This volume contains nine chapters that cover a wide range of topics in Arabic linguistic research. The papers are organized into four parts; these are phonetics and phonology, morphology, syntax and semantics, and decolonizing linguistics. Drawing on a wide range of Arabic varieties, articles in this volume bring cross-dialectal data that shed light on critical issues in linguistic theory. This volume also includes a non-traditional paper that critiques the methodology and practices of Arabic linguistic research. Scholars and graduate students of Arabic and general linguistics will benefit from the cutting-edge research in this volume.
