Abstract

Title of the Research: Language Observations over the story of Sheikh Hamad AlNahlan Written in the book entitled " Kitab Aktabakat " by Wad Defalla. The research is of an applicational nature, for the researcher made a language analysis for the ten pages which contain the story of that sheikh in the book. This short story was considered as a sample of language used in the whole book. The results attained by researcher can be summarized in the following points: (1) The Arabic language used in the book is a mixture of standard Arabic and colloquial. (2) Book author was keen to use appropriate Arabic punctuation. (3) Author used old deeply colloquial Sudanese words which were used and understood in the Sudan only. (4) Poetry written in the Sheikh's story is all (except one poem) written in colloquial Sudanese language following the "Dobeit" example but with weak,, uneven rhyme and music (5) The author belonged to the last phase of the Sinnar dynasty period when teaching of Arabic and Quran and Sufi learning increased. Azhar graduates also increased in number. This had its positive impact on standard Arabic. That was why authors usage of standard Arabic was more than colloquial Arabic.
