| Description | هذا المقرر يهدف إلى تقديم الاستعمالات المختلفة للجملة مع تحليلها، وهي الطريقة التي تأخذ بيد الطالب إلى فهم أصول الجملة العربية، وإلى إدراك نظامها ومن ثم إلى إتقان النحو إتقاناً واضحاً. وقد جمع في المقرر من الأبواب النحوية والصرفية الأساس الذي يرتكز عليه الاستخدام التطبيقي للغة الذي يساعد الدارس على أن يتحدث حديثاً صحيحاً، ويكتب كتابة سليمة. وسار المقرر لترتيب هذه المادة في خطوات متدرجة تؤدي بعضها إلى بعض، فبدأ بالمعارف الأولية التي تعد ركائز لأبواب النحو، كأنواع الكلمة، وعلامات كل نوع، والإعراب والبناء وتدرج منها إلى الجملة ووظيفة الكلمة فيها وما يطرأ عليها من ألوان الضبط الإعرابي، ثم انتقل إلى الجملة الاسمية ونواسخها، ثم الجملة الفعلية، وأنواع الأفعال وعمل الفعل، ثم المنصوبات، ثم التوابع، وانتهى إلى الإلمام بالضروري من قواعد الصرف كالجامد والمشتق، وعمل المشتقات، والصحيح والمعتل والمجرد والمزيد. ثم النسبة والتصغير والمقصور والمنقوص والممدود، وأنواع الجموع، وأخيراً الإعلال والإبدال والوقف. وقد استخدم في عرض المادة العلمية طريقة الاستنباط التي هي أكثر طرق التعليم تأثيراً في النفوس وأقربها للمنطق. |
