| Summary: | The Arabic ecclesiastical heritage contains many unique linguistic phenomena, vocabulary, and meanings. However, the Arabic library lacks a dictionary for its ecclesiastical heritage apart from a few lexicons and glossaries whose material is limited to strictly ecclesiastical terms. With the aims to direct researchers to this heritage in need of care and to pave the way for workers in lexicography in order to systematically construct a dictionary of Ecclesiastical Arabic, this study seeks to reveal the reality of the Arabic ecclesiastical heritage and the uniqueness of its words, meanings, and evidence and then provide an applicable systematic vision for constructing this dictionary. The study is committed to the descriptive approach based on studying the texts and deducing their characteristics regardless of the criteria of right and wrong as imposed by language rules. The researcher relies on a linguistic corpus derived from the reality of the ecclesiastical heritage throughout the history of Arabic in which the representation of sects and ecclesiastical sciences was taken into account while choosing the material. The study aims to provide a reference framework to set the standards for constructing an ecclesiastical Arabic dictionary in two stages (i.e., collecting and editing), as well as to reveal some of the characteristics of this language. |
