    Cross-Linguistic Interference in the Syntactic and Semantic Acquisition of Arabic Language

    The present study aims to investigate cross-linguistic interference in the syntactic and semantic acquisition of Arabic. An essay writing test is used to collect data. A total of 30 English and Spanish speakers of Arabic participates in this quantitative study. The participants are selected from three language centers in Jordan via convenient sampling procedures. The analysis of data reveals the following main findings: L1 transfer errors made by English and Spanish speakers of Arabic at the syntactic level account for 45% and 22.1%, respectively, while the percentage of intralingual errors made by English and Spanish speakers of Arabic at syntactic level account for 55%, and 77.9% respectively. On the other hand, the findings demonstrate that the percentage of L1 transfer errors made by English and Spanish speakers of Arabic at the semantic level are 34.85% and 14.3%, respectively, while the total percentage of intralingual errors made by English and Spanish speakers of Arabic at semantic level account for 65.15%, and 85.7 % respectively. The primary source of errors made by English and Spanish speakers of Arabic at both syntactic and semantic levels is intralingual interference

    Un paese in bilico tra poesia e profezia: amore romantico e relazioni proibite in Yawm al-Din di Rasha al-Amir

    No full text
    Un ampio corpus della letteratura araba moderna esplora il tema delle relazioni d’amore sofferte e contrastate, vissute spesso in segreto perché proibite e illecite. Il romanzo oggetto di questo studio è Yawm al-Din (Il giorno del Giudizio) di Rasha al-Amir (n. 1961). Questo romanzo, che si rivela essere un inno alla passione e alla libertà individuale, oltre a una ripresa dell’antico topos dell’umanizzazione dell’uomo da parte della donna, è soprattutto un richiamo vibrante a un Islam liberato dalle deformazioni che lo hanno troppo spesso, anche in tempi recenti, trasfigurato

    Why Open Educational Resources (OER) Are a Game-Changer for College Students

    No full text
    This blog post, written by Rasha Kawar explores the transformative potential of Open Educational Resources (OER) in higher education. Discussing how OER offers significant cost savings by providing free, accessible textbooks and course materials, alleviating the financial pressures many students face. From a personal perspective, the author reflects on their own experiences with costly textbooks and the frustration of purchasing materials that ultimately went unused. The post highlights how OER enhances student engagement by offering customizable, up-to-date content that can be tailored to course objectives, ensuring more relevant and dynamic learning experiences. Additionally, the author emphasizes how OER can support degree completion by reducing financial stress and enabling immediate access to resources. The blog ultimately advocates for OER as an essential tool for creating a more affordable, engaging, and supportive academic environment for students.

    Design, synthesis, molecular modeling, and anti-HIV-1 integrase activity of a series of photoactivatable diketo acid-containing inhibitors as affinity probes

    No full text
    The diketo acid (DKA) class of HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibitors is thought to function by chelating divalent metal ions on the enzyme catalytic site. However, differences in mutations conferring resistance to various DKA inhibitors suggest that multiple binding orientations may exist. In order to facilitate identification of DKA binding sites, a series of photoactivable analogues of two potent DKAs was prepared as novel photoaffinity probes. In cross-linking assays designed to measure disruption of substrate DNA binding, the photoprobes behaved similarly to a reference DKA inhibitor. Molecular modeling studies suggest that such photoprobes interact within the IN active site in a manner similar to that of the parent DKAs. Analogues Ia-c are novel photoaffinity ligands useful in clarifying the HIV-1 binding interactions of DKA inhibitors
