The Center for Development and Continuing Education at Basra University organized a course on the integrity of the Arabic language.
The aim of the course was to educate participants on linguistically correct writing so that employees or professors could write a research paper or edit an official document in a language free of linguistic, spelling, and grammatical errors.
The course, presented by Dr. Ayman Saleh Naama, included rules for writing the hamza (both hamzat al-wasl and hamzat al-qat'), the rules for writing the medial hamza, the rules for writing the open and closed ta', the rules for writing numbers, and the rules for adding or omitting certain letters from words, as well as correcting common linguistic errors.
In conclusion, the recommendation was made to adopt a concise booklet that includes the most important linguistic and spelling rules and some common linguistic errors, to be prepared by a committee of competent professors for courses on the integrity of the Arabic language and to be distributed to all state institutions.
