Abstract

This study aims at illustrating the role of the "speaker" in the Arabic Grammatical Heritage in its two stages: "emergence" and "development". This is due to the intensive care given by "discourse studies" to both the "speaker" and the "addressee" in the verbal situation. That given intensive care was strong enough to encourage a lot of those who are interested in ancient Arabic linguistics to examine the ancient grammatical studies. This study was concerned with highlighting the concepts which governed the way of analysis followed in those studies. The results were impressive regarding the "speaker", and also were refuting one of the most important accusations, which says that Arabic Grammar was fond of formality in studying speech, and in standardizing its constructional rules.
