The Vocal Proportionality In The Arab Discourses In The Abbasid Era In The Book Of Ahmed Zaki Safwat “The Assemblage Of Arab Discourses”

Abstract

This study deals with the phenomenon of vocal proportionality, which aims to make the words interconnected and vocally consistent, away from dissonance and gravity. It investigates these issues on the Arab discourses in the Abbasid era. The researcher found that the Abbasid speaker was aware of the importance of vocal functions that are not limited to being a means of transportation but it is a means of communication, expression and understanding. The speaker applied the vocal proportionality in his sermon by using the vocal aspects that were monitored in his stories, namely: incorporation, substitution, and homology. Abbasid speaker did that to avoid the heaviness of some heavy sounds that he found it difficult to be pronounced, he resorted to change these sounds to other sounds that do not require great muscle exertion, to reach his desired purpose which is expressing ideas and meanings easily and smoothly. he used vocal proportionality for the sake of influencing and persuading the recipients and communicating with them, without disturbing the speech.
