Abstract

Praise be to Allah , Lord of the worlds , and peace and blessings be upon our Master Muhammad , his family , and his companions . Linguistic collocations are a rich feature of the Arabic language , setting it apart from other languages . This expressive art in speech is a vivid reflection of the harmony between words the coherence of meaning , allowing the reader to grasp the intended message of a sentence effortlessly and intuitively . In this regard , we observe the interconnectedness of the context in these linguistic constructions appear , werer the second word serves to complement the first . Removing it from the text would disrupt the context and complicate understanding Linguistic collocation is one of the important contemporary linguistic issues due to its close relationship with linguistic texts . In conclusion , we can say that this type of linguistic context plays a significant role in conveying the content properly , both in terms of meaning and in delivering the intended message to the audience . It became clear that most of the metaphorical meanings that the word went to did not go beyond its sensory origin, but in most cases they came as a complement to the tangible material meaning. Most of the original meanings and connotations of the word came to express one meaning, even if they were multiple, as they have one intention and a fixed goal that does not change. In writing this research topic, we found that Al-Tha’alibi was keen to narrate multiple models within what is known as linguistic accompaniment, and this book of his is considered one of the most important sources in which vocabulary was mentioned in this manner of expression.
