Abstract

This study aimed to identify appropriate morphological subjects for inclusion in Arabic language teaching programs for non-Arabic speakers. Through the development of a functional teaching morphology using a descriptive approach and employing questionnaires as research tools, the author assessed the relevance and precision of proposed morphological topics across beginner, intermediate, and advanced language levels. The research findings confirmed the suitability and significance of these topics for teaching Arabic to non-Arabic speakers. Additionally, a comprehensive proposal for teaching functional morphology to non-Arabic-speaking learners was formulated and evaluated. Based on these results, the author put forth a series of recommendations and suggestions for consideration.
