Abstract

Any reflection on a notional taxonomy, previously used through
Arab phonetic studies, is immediately challenged by the diversity of
infinite uses of divergent concepts that overlap and interfering,
tending, in short, to confine themselves by the semantic charge they
convey in gnoseological fields other than those in which they
originated, and by the ambiguity which restricts the functional and
usable dimension of other concepts, especially those which the
precursors have failed to establish as levers of the construction of the
linguistic norm with all the necessary rigor allowing them to codify
language levels, starting with the phonetic and lexical system, to
reach the semantic level, and this, like the Légèreté et lourise, Point
of articulation, Phoneme and Grapheme, Principal and accessory,
Rhythm and cadence. As a result, the need has arisen to lay the
ground work for a new conception supported by an operative device
capable of decapitating the signs of these conceptual variations and of
elucidating its effects manifest through the historicity of the Arabic
