Abstract
The subject of Arabic influence on Malay language especially on its lexicon has been and still continues to be emotive issue. However, Arabic influence on Malay Language has not till now been investigated in a systematic manner and according to modern linguistic principles and procedures. It is also interesting to note that the linguistic structures of the two languages ( Arabic and Malay ) differ considerably. These factors and the absence of a reliable etymological dictionary of Malay make it impossible to obtain an entirely accurate picture of Arabic influence on the vocabulary of modern Malay.
This thesis is a preliminary attempt to explain phonological phenomena with special reference to contrastive phonology of loan words from Arabic that have been assimilated into the target language (Malay). The theoretical framework of this study is derived from the theory of generative phonology, which owes much to the work of Chomsky and Hale (1968) and Anderson (1974).
This study is concerned with synchronic aspects of Malay phonology aimed at identifying the methods of assimilating. Arabic sounds in the target language and to introduce difference process in phonology by studying and analysing Arabic loan words in Malay. Its major focus is on the distinctive features and their functioning in "phonological rules". The "phonological rules" illustrates various considerations that are involved in the choice of the base form that best accounts for the alternations observed. Rule systems concerns rule interactions, abbreviatory conventions, and rule ordering.
