 Contents 1. Definition: 2. Origins: 3. Types of terms: 4. Essential elements in terms:   Definition of terminology  A set of specialized terms and expressions usually used by professionals to refer to a certain aspect within their domain. It is a formal and standardized language around the world to achieve accurate and effective communication and to eliminate misunderstanding.  a system of terms belonging to a science, art, or specialized subject; nomenclature: the terminology of botany, the science of terms, as in particular sciences or arts  Origins Despite the wide use of English language for writing and communication, the majority of terms used in particular science have ancient Greek or Latin origins. However, other languages, like Arabic ,French, and German have great influence in some terms.   Types 1-Descriptive: A term used to describe something. 2-Economy: A term used to represent a phase, feature or a technique used in microbiology. 3-Acronomy: A term used as abbreviation for a set or group of words. 4-Homonyms: A term have similar sounds but differ in spelling and the meaning.  Essential elements in the term The majority of terms consist of : 1. Word Root: the fundamental part of the term, which provides its central meaning. 2. Prefix: group of letters added at the beginning of the word root for example: pre-ill-bio-multi- bio…etc 3. Suffix: group of letters added at the end of the word root for example: ical-tion-tive…etc 4. Interfix: combining vowel inserted between two words to ease pronouncing the term.  Analyzing and identifying the basic elements of a term Most terms contain a root and a suffix. The best order to analyze a word's parts is from the suffix to the prefix to the root of the word. If there is no prefix, one can skip to the root. If the root of the word is a special case with no true meaning, the underlying meaning can be discerned from the suffix.  Analyzing and identifying the basic elements of a term Examples: 1. hepatomalacia (hepat/o/malcia) – softening of the liver 2. gastroenteric (gastr/o/entric) – Relating to the stomach and intestines 3. Gastrodynia gastrodynia (gastr/o/dynia) – pain in the stomach 4. Angiographi (angi/o/graphy) – 5. x-ray study of the blood vessels 6.

Examples:  Common prefixes In the context of Quranic science terminology, prefixes are often used to indicate various aspects or characteristics of a concept or term. Some examples of prefixes commonly used in Quranic science terminology are: 1. Al-: This is a common prefix in Arabic and is used in Quranic science terminology to denote "the" or "the one and only." For example, "Al-Samad" (The Eternal) and "Al-Basit" (The Expander). 2. Faa-: This prefix is used in the Quran to indicate a causative relationship or a condition. For example, "Fabi-ayyih ala-i rabbikuma tukaththiban" (Then which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?).   Common prefixes 3.Wa-: This prefix is often used to connect words or phrases in the Quran, similar to the English conjunction "and." For example, "Wa-Kayfa" (And how) and "Wa-Ma" (And not). 4.Fa-: This prefix is used to indicate consequence, action, or a sequence of events. For example, "Fa-Subhanallah" (So exalted is Allah) and "Fal ya'budu" (So let them worship). 5.Li-: This prefix is used to indicate purpose or intention.

For example, "Ka-Ayyamihim" (Like their days) and "Ka-Hasrat" (Like the regret).   Common Suffixes Suffixes are added to the end of a word to modify its meaning. they Provide specific meaning related to exegesis, jurisprudence, recitation, etc.). For each term, we find: 1. The suffix itself (e.g., -iyyah, -iyyat, -iyat, etc.) 2. At least two specific terms from Quranic sciences that utilize this suffix. The goal is to give a comprehensive overview of the various suffix types employed in the specialized vocabulary of Quranic studies, with clear and detailed examples to illustrate their usage and significance within this field of Islamic scholarship.  Common Suffixes 1-at/-un: These suffixes are used to indicate plural forms of nouns. For example, "Qurun" (Generations), and "Samawat" (Heavens). 2-un/-an: These suffixes can indicate a singular noun or an indefinite noun depending on the context. For example, "Khalqun" (Creation) and "Hikmatun" (Wisdom). 3-iyyun/-iyyin: This suffix can be used to indicate a person or object associated with the characteristic mentioned. For example, "Tawwabiyyin" (Those who repent). 4-iyyah/: This suffix denotes a feminine form or quality. For example, "Haqiqiyyah" (Truthfulness)  Definition  Quran science terminology refers to the specific words and phrases used in the Quran that relate to scientific concepts, natural phenomena, and descriptions of the universe. These terms may encompass various fields such as astronomy, biology, geology, physics, and other scientific disciplines.  Quranic science terminology is often regarded as distinct due to its unique linguistic style, precision, and references to natural phenomena that align with modern scientific knowledge. Scholars and researchers analyze these terms to explore the scientific insights contained within the Quran and their compatibility with contemporary scientific understanding  Contents 1.
