Mapping The Linguistic Features Of Social Etiquette In Surah An-nur: A Comparative Corpus Linguistics Study
Authors : Aggoun Wafa .
Abstract
The Qurʾān is a religious text that has undergone different interpretations and recitations across various languages and periods. Despite these variations, the Qurʾān's linguistic devices and rhetorical patterns convey profound meanings that can promote mutual understanding among people of different backgrounds. This article explores the linguistic features used to define social etiquette in Surah An-Nur and its English translation. Using comparative corpus linguistics, the study will examine the morpho-syntactic structure of the two versions of Surah An-Nur and demonstrate how they address social issues and ethical codes in the Muslim community. The results of the study reveal that there are certain variations in the use and distribution of linguistic features in the two corpora. However, the analysis shows that the intricate network of linguistic choices in each corpus plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between expressing social norms in the Arabic corpus and upholding their significance in the English corpus.
