Teaching Arabic language – ARAB TIMES – KUWAIT NEWS – Arab Times Kuwait News

A woman said in a television interview that if the issue of teaching came back to her, she would completely stop teaching grammar and linguistics in schools because it is not necessary, what is necessary is to involve students in reading Arabic language, culture, knowledge and thought, and not teach them difficult subjects such as grammar and linguistics because they will come in the context of reading, and perhaps they will learn it by heart.

The woman says that no one other than the Arabic language teachers or the clergy and a small group of others need in their professional field to know conjugation and declension as these are matters that have nothing to do with the course of daily life.

Those who write articles and news reports, readers of newspapers and books, engineers, pilots, doctors and pharmacists can live their entire life with the Arabic language, reading, communicating and writing, without the need to navigate the grammar.
