Pengembangan Materi Unsur Bahasa: Struktur Gramatika (Qawaid/Nahwu-Sharf) dan Semantik

Abstract

Arabic language learning cannot be separated from the mastery of qawaid (nahwu and sharf) and semantics as essential elements in understanding both structure and meaning. However, in practice, qawaid is often taught separately from meaning, resulting in partial student understanding. This study aims to examine and formulate the development of Arabic Language Elements II materials that integrate grammatical structure and semantics in the learning process. The method used is a literature review by analyzing relevant academic sources related to qawaid and semantics. The findings indicate that integrating nahwu, sharf, and semantics can enhance comprehensive language understanding by connecting form and meaning within a unified framework. In addition, text-based materials and applicative exercises are considered more effective in helping students understand and use Arabic contextually. The implication of this study highlights the need to reorient qawaid instruction from a purely theoretical approach toward a more integrative and practical one. Therefore, the developed materials are expected to improve the quality of Arabic language learning, particularly in comprehension and language production skills.
